I wanna play my games using my ps4 controller but i didn't find a thing on how to get gog galaxy to detect my controller. Could anyone help me with this problem?
You connect it to your PC...

Alright, a bit more helpful: The game support is what matters. Goglaxy should not make a difference as it is not even needed in order to play the games here, some multi-player games aside.

Maybe more info in the Gagloxy subforum:

My controller is already connected to my pc through bluetooth, however when i try to play Shantae it doesn't detect the controller D:
Whenever a game on Steam doesn't work with my PS4, or when I want to use it with games in other stores, including Galaxy, and they don't support the controller natively, I use DS4Windows, the Ryochan7 branch.

Shantae and the Pirate's Curse doesn't support gamepads? (GOG forums) -- this is Falci's solution above
Is there any way to make a PS4 controller work with this game? (Steam forums) -- this suggests InputMapper instead
I used the input mapper and now it's working :D
Thanks a lot lads.

Controller support depends on the game supporting your controller. Do you have any drivers installed to make your PS4 controller show up as an xinput controller?

EDIT: I should have read through to the end of the thread. Glad you got it solved.

I added the GOG game in my steam library. I added a PS4 controller in steam. I launched the GOG game with the steam launcher and the game detected a Xbox controller as x input was now activated.

Thanks I about to post a question on it, but yeah I found this.
I added my PS4 controler to Steam. I launched GOG, I launched my GOG game with Steam launcher and et voila! It's worked fine for game who doesn't have PS4 controller support from the past like Drgaon Dogma.

hey, how you added the PS4 controler to your steam ?
using pipes of course.

No really ... use Windows drivers and that's it.
The launchers don't need native support.
