PS4 Touchpad Button?

Tech Talk
1

Greetings everybody, I really hope that somebody can help me.

In a few days from now I will finally get a new Arcade Stick to modd, and I want to padhack a DS4 into it. I know that that will be a pain in the ass to do but I have a few spare DS4s to screw up ^^"

Soooo, my only problem now, is that i need/want to put an button into the Stick that uses the the “push” of the touchpad, i dont need the touchpad itself, but i would like to still be able to access the menu in games like Shantae, ect.

Has anyone tried something similar or an idea how to solder that?

Thanks in advance for any advice and sorry if my english isn’t the best ^^"

Sorry I’ve only ever seen this done off a brook board which has a spot to setup a “touchpad click” button on it.

Well… I think that is the solution to all my problems… well that was easy xD thank you very much!

Might want to look up my ds4 padhack thread.

Save those pads for multiplayer games and just use a Brook PS4 PCB or Brook Universal Fighting Board.

@Gummo did look into it, and god damn that is the most usefull information i could find ^^ but i think i will stick to the brook fightboard, does anyone know if it work with a pstv?
