And from it is a Google Pixel 4. And today I want to show you how to connect your controller just so you can use it with specific games
0:14
So for this I'll be using the Xbox One controller as you can see
0:20
Now keep in mind this will work most certainly with the Xbox One that has this kind of design
0:28
There's a first generation Xbox one which won't work. This, the second generation, I guess, of it comes with Bluetooth, so you will need that
0:38
And Xbox 360 won't work unless you plug it in. So we're doing this on a wireless connection
0:46
So you want to first power it on like you normally do and put it into connecting
0:51
into the connect mode. So hold the button and it starts blinking like so
0:56
And then you can find it in. the Bluetooth section so pair new device and top on the controller and you can see
1:13
that it becomes solid now so now specific games support full use of
1:20
controllers so for instance something like Cal of Duty will we'll use it to the
1:26
full potential so I'm just going to really showcase it really quickly
1:56
As you can see you can see the letters so A to continue which as you will see continues normally
2:43
Let's close this. So I'm just going to use the controller off the screen, so you won't be able to see it
3:10
Otherwise, I'll be blacking the phone, which would defeat the purpose. But as you all see now, it works just fine
3:18
The controller might be a little bit wonky where it starts drifting down, but that's the fault
3:22
of the controller, not the game itself. As you can see, you can do all that normally
3:38
I can see. up Also you can see that all the buttons are automatically mapped Also you can see what button does what by the letter of the controller that is assigned to it
4:15
So you have X to reload, B to crouch, A to jump
4:23
And the drift isn't necessarily the most helpful thing. So you can see it's working just fine
4:50
So I'm just going to quit this. Because I want to show also case where it actually doesn't work all the way
4:58
So for instance, Black Desert is a good example. Now keep in mind if you use a program like an octopus
5:07
if it gets updated to the point that it actually works again. At the moment of making this video, it does not
5:15
So if I try to launch it, it will either freeze up or just tell me to download a different program, stuff like that
5:21
So not very reliable at this moment and can't get it to work
5:25
Now I also can't find any other program. that does this just as well as Octopus used to do it
5:33
But what it basically allows you to do it, it adds an overlay over your device
5:37
where it interacts with the controller itself where you can just drag�� everything to
5:46
collect later. So you would be able to drag over all the buttons of your controller over like the icons right here
5:57
And then by pressing them, the overlay would interact with the display itself
6:01
It might not work just as well as when you have a native controller but it still better than nothing Now as you will see here it works
6:13
Actually, it looks like it has a faux support judging by the letters as well. So maybe I just needed to restart the game
6:20
But as you can see, it works. Well, this one works fine, I guess
6:27
But you might encounter other games that just don't work flat out
6:33
you might have the controller plugged in but they just don't react to it and that's
6:37
where you would want to use the overlay so I'm just gonna be show the app so
6:46
right here octopus gamepad mouse keyboard keymapper and this is a quick how it works
6:59
basically have kind of like an over where you just drag it over on the screen where you would have the thumbstick and
7:14
yeah and then it just interacts with it there's not much I can't really show because it doesn't work at this moment and
7:23
I couldn't find anything else that would like I said before but I can try this on later on and
7:29
see if it works for you maybe once they updated like I said it will work
7:33
again. Keep in mind also that, for instance, the octopus itself is not supported with specific
7:40
games. For instance, PUBG will completely remove you from the game if it detects some kind
7:46
overlay in there, so you're not really allowed to use it. And I'm not exactly sure what other
7:52
games are in that category, but I'm fairly certain that PUBG is one of them. But yeah, this would
7:58
no way finish up what I wanted to show. And if you found this helpful, don't forget to hit like
