Need Help with Controller Support

I'm trying to use a PS4 controller. I've tried through both steam and the Nexon Launcher version of the game, with both steam's built in controller support and with JoyToKey. The controller mapping works until the game launches, then it just stops responding all together. I'm at a loss of what else to do. Does anyone have any advice? Perhaps I could try other controllers and see if they work :(

    Heh, ok I found the answer after a lot of searching for how to make JoyToKey work. I think this is a problem with Windows 10. The answer comes from this youtube vid (it's in another language)


    At the 45 second mark you can see what he does. I will give a step by step guide in case anyone is having the problem I had. It's very simple to fix!

    1) Right click on the JoyToKey icon, and click on properties.
    2) Click on the Compatibility tab in the top area of the properties window
    3) Check the box that says "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" and then in the dropdown area below it select Windows XP (Service Pack 3)
    4) Check the box that says "Run this program as an administrator". Click Apply at the bottom and you should be all set!

    Just be aware that that likely constitutes a "third party program" as far as nexon is concerned. And given that they're relatively secretive about what constitutes illegal third-party programs(that or the definition changes with the wind) it's an "at your own risk" sort of thing.
