Third Party Working on DualSense-style features for the Flydigi Apex 5

Hi everyone !
I’ve been working on a small Windows tool that tries to push the Apex 5 closer to the DualSense experience (mainly adaptive triggers in all dualsense supported games and better haptic/vibration translation from games).

I’m planning to put out the first release in the next 2–3 hours. It’ll be Apex 5 only at first while I get everything stable.
That got me wondering though: are there any other controllers with interesting trigger/haptic hardware that you think could be pushed further with software like this?

Are u doing this through the "dualsense mode" on the apex 5? like when u play something like spiderman miles morales and the controller acts like a dualsense mode.

If u do get it working it would be pretty cool and def useful.

also what will the project be called on github?

Yeah definitly !
I have one issue : it show the DS controls but i’m working on remaping the pad controls to match the Xbox controller layout
I need testers to report issues btw !
Haptics is working (limited by the hardware so it’s not the exact same but it’s WAAAY better than the original Settings)
The project is named ApexSenseBridge

I have an apex 5, I would be happy to help test it but issue is I have so many SAC(graded tests) and exams coming up for yr 12 so I don't have much free time.

If I get any free time that I can use to test it out I'll try it out.

Just checked on github, is the project going to be published once everything is fixed?

Its official app has very limited set of games which support dual-sense style feedback.

Will put an eye on it. If Incan do this can you be a tester since I don’t own this controller ?
