I hooked my PS4 controller up since I packed away my wheel during the move and I got it working for the most part, but can't get my d pad buttons to configure. My joy sticks do, but I like to use the d pad buttons more for my steering. Any ideas on how to get them to work?

Check out DS4Windows. I don't know much about it, but I know everyone who uses a PS4 controller on PC uses it.

If DS4Windows doesn't help, you could always map the d-pad to the analog sticks using AntiMicro.
