How to use Haute42 Controllers on the PS5

[@ChronoAscension]

The process for this is the same with other adapters. Updating is the easiest way to set things up to avoid needing to configure the controller in the web configurator. Aside from the Booter 5, you can use the Mayflash v1.1, Wingman FGC, PXN N5, or even third party licensed PS4 controllers (Must be third party and licensed. It cannot be the official PS4 controller nor the PS5 Dual Sense).

[@LucaPassini]

I have a licensed pad for PS5 made by Qanba, how can I use it for the Haute42?

[@ChronoAscension]

@@LucaPassini Unfortunately that isn't an option that will work at the moment. It needs to be a licensed PS4 controller because licensed PS5 controllers will not work.

Can u do one of these for xbox series x

[@RealidadScansOrg]

​@@dmoo8121you need a magicboot xbox one, or mayflash magic x

[@NeCoruption]

I'm glad there's a 1000 PS5 articles and videos while I've been struggling to get this to work on my Xbox for 6 hours now, because apparently it needed to be this complicated to use a special controller in the year 2024

[@ChronoAscension]

I believe it should just be a matter of updating the controller then using an adapter like the Mayflash MagONE FPS or the Mayflash Magic-X adapter. Once you’ve got your controller updated and the adapter plugged in, hold the R1 button as you plug in your controller to put it in the Xbox One mode for Xbox One and Series S/X use. Let me know if that works.

[@Djindas]

Thank you so, SO MUCH💪, this is the answer to everything ive been asking for❤... Well, all but one thing. Im new to arcade sticks, got my p12 yesterday (my first ever arcade-ish fighting game focussed controller). Could you please recommend one of these adapters you talked about? I wanted to get the booter 5, but i live in Germany. Booter5 + shipping costs more than the P12 + shipping. It's like 70 Euros, im not kidding. Any cheap alternatives would be lifesaving, please🙏.

[@TrojanSalesmen1]

Also GREAT video ty! I need to test this out on a PS5.. but I don't got one XD.. I even have the Brook Adapter. I hope when the "PS6" comes out I can keep using my Haute42 I LOVE THIS THING!

[@ChronoAscension]

Thank you, I appreciate the support. Hopefully the GP2040-CE devs can figure something out when the time comes for the PS6.

[@3nertia]

Why is an adapter required at all? What's so different/special about the PS5 that controllers almost always need an adapter?

[@ChronoAscension]

It’s not just the PS5 but even the Xbox consoles. But a lot of these companies don’t want third party peripherals being used unless they’re licensed, so they have security protocols which cause the need for adapters. These adapters are a way of making the controllers pass the authentication check so that you can use them despite them being unlicensed. It’s also just a matter of input from one controller to another as not all controllers are made with the intent of it working on a specific console.

Could you test haute pads on Wii? Trying to make an arcade build and I’m trying to decide if it’s worth it to get Wii brand sticks. PS4 controllers work with Wii so I’m curious if it would work

[@ChronoAscension]

They use an open source firmware called GP2040-CE which does not support the Wii. Maybe with a modded Wii with that one custom application that allows for PS4 controllers to be used, but I’m unsure.

[@LAST1GGK]

@@ChronoAscension Thanks for explaining!

[@ArcMeUp]

So I have the brook wingman. Did everything you did, but I only get PS5 on the OLED. Not PS5:AS

[@ChronoAscension]

Have you tested if it still works without the AS part displaying?

[@tankypooh1491]

I had the same issue but i pressed home and it was able to be my controller

[@pwolf93]

Hey good tutorial, but I have a question. I have a PS4 Pro and I got the latest system update (12.0), then my controller stopped working after the 8 minutes limit, whereas the previous version of the OS of PS4 didn't happened. I updated to the latest controller update (0.7.9 and previously was the 0.7.7) but still isn't working. The Cosmox booter 5 was working without updates before the 12.0 PS4 OS. Any ideas?

[@ChronoAscension]

Did you put it back in PS5 mode after you updated? It resets your configuration once you’ve updated so you may just need to press Y again when plugging in. Otherwise, I haven’t heard of this issue and I don’t see any message results in the Haute42 and GP2040-CE Discords about it, so I’m not sure what to do.

[@ChronoAscension]

Maybe try downgrading to firmware version 0.7.8, there may be issues with 0.7.9 and 0.7.10.

[@lou_ures]

Hi! I receive my r16 and the booster adapter today, it looks amazing! But i have a problem, the adapter don't fit well on the usb on the right side of the controller... So I plug the adapter on the usb of the ps5. Initially, the controller works correctly, but a few minutes later it doesn't work and i have to plug again de usb c to make it work again. Can you give me some tips or help? Thank you!

[@ChronoAscension]

@@lou_ures I also had the issue with the USB not going in easily to the R16. Make sure to align it straight and put more force than usual since it’s weirdly a tight fit. My other controllers had no issues with the adapter going in so I think that’s an issue on the R16. Also, these types of adapters are meant to be plugged into the side of the controller, not the console. So make sure to follow the steps in the video if you haven’t, and plug the adapter into the controller and not the console.

[@H.Cervantes]

Let me get this straight. Is there a way to play PS5 exclusive games with the R16? Let's say I want to play 2XKO (I believe this game wont be avaliable in PS4). If I buy the R16, will I be able to play 2XKO? If that's the case, is this video a guide to make it work? Im asking because in the comments, you said something about not working with native PS5 games.

[@ChronoAscension]

It depends on whether or not that game will have legacy support. So for example there’s a PS5 version for SF6 and Tekken 8, but using an adapter and following these steps will work for those games on the PS5 version. When I say native PS5 games I mean ones that aren’t fighting games released on the PS5 like God of War Raganarok for example. But from what I’ve read on the PS5 alpha lab of 2XKO, there are issues with things like double inputs, so time will tell if these issues will be fixed for the full release.

Can someone explain why plugging in the controller where the adapter goes wouldn't work? Im very new to this, and I just wanna save money while having fun

[@ChronoAscension]

I’m unsure as to what process you’re trying to explain. But if you get an adapter like the Brook Wingman, that adapter plugs into the console and has an extra USB port on the back where you can plug your controller into. If you have an adapter with a USB end but it doesn’t have an extra USB port on the back, then it can’t be used as is because those adapters are meant to be plugged into the controller, and require the setup as shown in the video. The Wingman can also be used this way to remove the lag that the usual method of just plugging everything in has, but if you feel that the setup is too difficult, just use it as is.

[@x3xicex3x]

@@ChronoAscension I was thinking of getting a magicboot to plug into the leverless controller passthrough, and plugging the leverless to the console. But i was wondering instead of getting a magicboot to plug into the leverless controller, if I could just plug a ps5 controller in the passthrough through usb, then plug the leverless in the console

I think the only known method of key extraction is for the PS4’s DualShock 4, and that only allows for use on the PS4 without an adapter. So there probably isn’t a way to do so with the your arcade stick yet.

[@sulimanabdelah3556]

how can I use the control without having to disconnect it after 8 minutes? and if that time passes I have to wait another 8 minutes or is it just disconnecting and reconnecting?

[@ChronoAscension]

This video covers how to do so. You will need an adapter like the ones mentioned to avoid is disconnecting. Otherwise, if you don’t want to get an adapter, then you can use it until it disconnects, but you will need to unplug then replug it in every 8 minutes.

Did you skip the flash nuke step? I’m not sure what would stop it from working other than maybe that since skipping that can sometimes cause issues, but I’m not sure if it causes any issues with PS5 authentication. Also, what games are you trying it on? It’s meant for PS5 fighting games as they have legacy controller support which is what’s utilized for these types of things.

[@ChronoAscension]

Sorry for the late response, I didn’t see the follow up comments. The only things I can think of are making sure the light on the adapter is on to see if it’s making a proper connection with the controller. If not then unplug and replug it into the controller again. If you haven’t, press Y when you plug it in to set it to the PS5 mode although I’m sure you’ve done that already. If nothing works then try joining their Discord server and ask for help and explain all the steps you took.

If I make it ps5 compatible , would it still work on pc ? Or would I need it to nuke it all over again and set it to pc mode ?

When you plug the controller in, there’s different buttons to set it in a different mode. So for PS4/PS5 mode you hold the Y button. Then when you want to swap it to PC mode you hold the B button when you plug it in. You don’t have to do this every time you plug it in, it will remember what mode it is in, but if you switch from console to PC or one console to another, you hold the different button when you plug it in.
