I got my moonlight/sunshine rig running with fedora on the server and my AppleTV as the client. My DualShock 4 controller works but isn’t mapping right and it’s old enough that it’s probably time I bought something new rather than bother fixing it anyway.
I have an Xbox wireless controller but it just never felt right in my hand.
I have 8bitdo SN30 controllers but they never were able to keep a stable connection.
I’m considering either a Sony dualsense controller and charger, 8bitdo ultimate 2, or 8bitdo pro 3.
Opinions?
I just got the 8bitdo ultimate 2. It connected fine on Bluetooth the first time i used it, but i was unable to get it to connect with the dock. Then the next week (this week) I’ve been completely unable to get it to connect over Bluetooth but it connects instantaneously with the dock. Like incredibly fast.
I’ve also been unable to map the l4/r4 buttons in trackmania to keys but i think that might be a trackmania issue.
There’s a physical switch in the back to alternate between the two. Pretty sure you unknowingly changed it. The 2.4Ghz connection through the dock/dongle is much better than Bluetooth anyway.
To map extra buttons you need to switch the controller to d-input (turn it off, then restart it while holding B) to give Steam Input direct access to them. You need to be on one of the latest firmwares, so you need access to (a friend’s) Mac or Window computer to update it.

Nope, I’ve tested with both (and i knew that when i was testing the first time, I didn’t want to use Bluetooth I wanted to use the dongle and it wouldn’t work). It just doesn’t work with bluetooth on this computer now.
Yep did that, the inputs show up. Steam lets you map them to letters, but trackmania doesn’t recognize them. And yes it’s the latest firmware, that was the first thing I updated.
Please, believe me, I spent more than 4 hours trying to get this working. I’ve tried everything you’ve said and more.
Sorry :( you seem to have a defective unit.
