After weeks and weeks of experimenting and endless tinkering I've finally found the perfect ds4 pad settings, now guys at first it might feel slightly unresponsive especially steering but just give it a lap or 2 and you'll fall in love, guys simple test, choose the most twitchiest and edgy car you know and watch you'll total control, today is the first time I've been able to enjoy the p1 and Ferrari la Ferrari, providing you've got a nice stable setup on the cars you can really chuck them round corners, I've been throwing the la Ferrari around corners with full throttle and I've been able to tame the back end without breaking a sweat, below are my pad settings, enjoy lads

I tried these settings and it was very very twitchy for me, the cars seem to swing to the left and not go straight. :confused:👍

I have messed around and come up with these. Will some one test to see how they get on with these (less sensitivity and slower turn in). The one thing I can't seem to amend is the chassis bending in cockpit view it feels like a boat and doesn't feel settled on any setting. I did sort this eventually on PCars1 so still more tweaking for me as I still am not comfortable on DS4 and sometimes struggle to get round one lap in some cars! I can't use chase cam even on DS4 and have to use cockpit view.

PS4 DS4 Settings only

Dont set very low steering sensitivity. This setting doesnt seem to really be sensitivity but more like linearity.
So the best is to set it to 50 (perfectly linear) and add more controller dampening (about 80-85).
If its still to twichy then go to car setup and increase steering ratio to the max (many cars are allowing 25:1 or more while standard setup is closer to 15:1) and save setup.
That way youll lower your stick sensitivity while maintaining linearity :)

Thanks @jefafa I will try that later...I am determined to find a good (general) set up so I don't have to play around each time I go on the game with the DS4. I really want something solid like GT Sport, DriveClub or Dirt4 where it has slow inputs but feels stable on every car. I will let you know how I get on. It is just all a little frustrating :p
 
how is it working for you guys here ?
does your controller settings allow you to drive in a stable way a racecar ( "easy part" ) and in the same way a road car ( the nightmare part ) ??
 
I have tried these all again ^^^ adjusted as said but it is still all too twitchy and awkward to use for me :indiff:, I have spent an hour moving one at a time on road cars first, then trying better handling cars and this is now my final set up. I think increasing the dead zone has helped a lot. I have tried these settings on a mixture of cars now and these work for me and slowly getting how I like them (Dirt4/GTS/Forza).
