Hi,
could it be possible that you can "plug & play" with the QS directly into the CronusMax Plus on a PS4?
Or how much time and work would I have to spent till playing?
Need to know this within the next 16 hours because of a special price of the PS4. ;)
Thanks =)

I would get it.

The CronusMax now provides "full crossover support" for the PS4, including the touchpad.

There are two ways to connect: You can plug the QS directly into the CronusMax or use a USB hub and plug both the QS and the DS4 controller in. The former method results in periodic "resets" of the connection to defeat Sony's DRM, which can upset some games, but the wiring is simple and this remains the most popular method, as far as I can tell. The latter method provides uninterrupted game play, but there are more things to hook up.

The newest quadstick "Default Configuration" works with the PS4 Crossover Essentials Gamepak to let you map the touchpad to the Right Analog stick.

I would go for it if its a great price on the PS4 as Fred suggested to me also, make sure you look at getting one of the USB hubs That are on the list of being compatible with the Cronus Max Plus

I am currently playing The Witcher 3 & loving it and that is just using the default setup on the QS

Merry Christmas

I ordered cronusmax v3/usb hub and ps4 and everything is coming on monday.

I haven't played a single game on the quadstick yet...

Can someone help me with the 1st steps?

Hi.
Connect the CronusMax v3 via pc prog slot to your computer. install software and have a look if there is an update available.
Then put the CronusMax into the ps4 and the hub into the CronusMax. Now you have to connect the QuadStick and original ps4 controller with the hub. That should work...I think.

I've connected it like that but also followed the settings for the "direct connect setup" from QuadStick support page.
After a while I noticed that I didn't change the CronusMax Slot to 1 for playing, I just forgot it but it worked. So I think it could work without any extra settings with a hub.
If not, try to put the QuadStick into the first slot of the hub and the ps4 controller into the last one (I read something about that while searching for compatible hubs, but I bought just a "normal" one).

Hope this helps.

Great, thank you what if there is a new version of software available like 1.21.

Should I still update?
