This repo contains some Python scripts I use to play and reverse-engineer the DualShock 4 controller.
Use these files at your own risk and be ready to throw away your controller because it could stop working.
They have been tested on only two DS4 on planet Earth, so any slight change of your DS4 w.r.t mine can lead to bricking it.
ds4-tool.py
can be used to play with undocumented commands of your DualShock 4ds4-calibration-tool.py
can be used to calibrate analog sticks or triggers. It has a nice TUI.

The tools won't detect your DualShock 4 until you change default driver to the libusb one.
The easiest way to do this is to use the Zadig software.
-
Download and run Zadig
-
Select your DualShock 4 from list and change the driver to libusb-win32 one
