DS4 automatic profiles do not work with game pass games - Luka8989 - 08-29-2021

Is there a way to pause DS4 when starting a game and then reactivate it when returning to playnite? I would need to do it in playnite because the games of the game pass do not allow to be modified in the least and it does not make me put the games inside the automatic profiles of DS4, could I do it through a script at start and then at the end of the game? In case to do this what script should I use? A thousand thanks

I'd recommend getting this first, and setting that up (just drop the executable in the same folder as ds4windows). 
Then, go to whatever game, edit, scripts and in startup put the following under game startup:
{PathTo\DS4WindowsCMD.exe} -command stop

Or if you want to use a certain profile upon game startup:
{PathTo\DS4WindowsCMD.exe} -command LoadProfile.1.<profile name>


If you use the second one I'd recommend disabling auto-profile.

Also I suggest using this fork (for now).
