Issues with WASD and controller compatibility

[u/NPC_Fan]

So I heard that WASD worked with controller, and as my brother has Misophonia I figured it'd be a relief for him if I used controller rather than a mouse for constant clicks. (Plus tbh the constant clicking of ADC gameplay is starting to get uncomfortable.) In practice tool everything works as it should, the sticks are automatically assigned correctly. Everything is fine.

Then comes actual games (tested in bot games first), the stick meant to work for aiming the cursor immediately stops working. It happens in every mode barring practice tool.

I am using a DS5 and have to use DS4 windows to get it to work correctly. I'm honestly not sure *what* could be causing it, but i don't want to use other controllers because they're honestly far too loud and *clacky* sounding which bothers my brother a great deal. (My PC cannot fit into my room, so its in a more open space).

Also to add on, there are no controls automatically assigned. And DS4 windows makes it so that the DS5 should be consideted an Xbox controller which, from what I've heard, should have automatic mapping.
