Mac gamers are real. If you work in one of the creative industries, there’s a good chance you have a beast of a Mac that’s more than capable of playing modern games—although not at maxed out settings. The real barrier is trying to play anything not in the Civilization series with a trackpad. To play other games, you’ll need to set up a controller. Got a DualShock 4 controller for your PlayStation? Good news: It’ll work on your Mac, too.
Mac玩家是真实的。 如果您从事的是创意产业之一,那么很有可能您会拥有一台Mac的野兽,它不仅具有玩现代游戏的能力,而且还没有达到极限。 真正的障碍是尝试使用触控板播放《 文明系列》中没有的任何内容。 要玩其他游戏,您需要设置一个控制器。 为您的PlayStation安装了DualShock 4控制器? 好消息:它也可以在Mac上使用。
If you’re serious about gaming, you’re probably best off installing Windows through Boot Camp and using your PS4 controller in Windows. But if, like me, you just occasionally want to run around the rooftops of historic buildings or overthrow unspecified foreign governments, there’s no point dedicated 50 GBs of SSD space to it.
如果您对游戏很认真,那么最好是通过Boot Camp安装Windows并在Windows中使用PS4控制器 。 但是,如果像我一样,您偶尔只是想在历史建筑的屋顶上奔跑,或者推翻未指定的外国*,那没有必要专门分配50 GB的SSD空间。
无线配对控制器或将其插入 (Pair Your Controller Wirelessly or Plug It In)
When it comes to connecting a PS4 controller to your Mac, you have two options: use a USB Micro cable, or connect wirelessly over Bluetooth. The USB option is simple: you just plug the controller in and it will work. Bluetooth, however, takes a few extra steps.
将PS4控制器连接到Mac时,有两种选择:使用USB Micro电缆,或通过蓝牙无线连接。 USB选项很简单:您只需插入控制器即可使用。 但是,蓝牙需要采取一些额外的步骤。
First, turn off the controller if it’s already on. If it’s on and paired with a PlayStation 4, hold down the “PlayStation” button and then select the “Log Out of PS4” or “Enter Rest Mode” option in the menu that appears on your TV. The controller will turn off.
首先,关闭控制器(如果已打开)。 如果已打开并与PlayStation 4配对,请按住“ PlayStation”按钮,然后在电视上显示的菜单中选择“退出PS4”或“进入休息模式”选项。 控制器将关闭。
On your Mac, go to System Preferences > Bluetooth and make sure Bluetooth is turned on. Then, grab your DualShock controller and hold down the PS and Share buttons until the light starts flashing blue.
在Mac上,转到系统偏好设置>蓝牙,并确保蓝牙已打开。 然后,抓住您的DualShock控制器并按住PS和Share按钮,直到指示灯开始闪烁蓝色。
Wait a few moments and Wireless Controller will appear in the list of Bluetooth Devices on your Mac. Click Pair and the two will connect.
请稍等片刻,“无线控制器”将出现在Mac上的“蓝牙设备”列表中。 单击配对,两个将连接。
如何映射控制器的游戏按钮 (How to Map Your Controller’s Buttons for Gaming)
Once you’ve got the controller connected, you can configure it to work with your games.
连接控制器后,就可以对其进行配置以使其与游戏兼容。
Plenty of games available through Steam come with controller support. If you’re more interested in retro games, the emulator OpenEmu has built in controller support as well. For anything else, you’re probably going to need to set things up manually.
通过Steam提供的大量游戏都带有控制器支持。 如果您对复古游戏更感兴趣, 则模拟器OpenEmu还内置了控制器支持。 除此之外,您可能需要手动进行设置。
There are a few different options available, but I use the free and open-source Enjoyable. With it, you can assign each button or analog stick to any key press or mouse movement you want.
有几种可用的选项,但是我使用了免费和开源的Enjoyable 。 使用它,您可以将每个按钮或模拟摇杆分配给所需的任何按键或鼠标移动。
Download, install, and run the app. Each game you want to use the controller with needs a separate mappings profile. Press Command+N on your keyboard to create a new profile and name it after the game or emulator you want to play. Each profile saves automatically.
下载,安装并运行该应用程序。 您要使用控制器的每个游戏都需要一个单独的映射配置文件。 在键盘上按Command + N可以创建一个新的配置文件,并以您要玩的游戏或模拟器命名。 每个配置文件自动保存。
To switch between profiles, you can just click on the menu bar icon and select the profile you want to use.
要在配置文件之间切换,您只需单击菜单栏图标,然后选择要使用的配置文件。
Each button and analog stick axis has to be assigned individually. With Enjoyable open, press the button you want to configure on the PS4 controller. The app will select the right option from the list (for example, the X button on the controller is Button 2 in the menu). Press the key you want to map that button to in the right pane. Now, when you press that button, your Mac will register it as that keypress.
每个按钮和模拟摇杆轴必须单独分配。 打开“令人愉快”后,按您要在PS4控制器上配置的按钮。 该应用程序将从列表中选择正确的选项(例如,控制器上的X按钮是菜单中的Button 2)。 在右窗格中按要将该按钮映射到的键。 现在,当您按下该按钮时,Mac会将其注册为该按键。
Repeat this process for the rest of the buttons. Note, the L2 and R2 buttons are actually registered as joysticks: L2 is Axis 5 and R2 is Axis 6. A half press on either is the Low axis while a full press is the High. This means you can assign two different key presses to the shoulder buttons if you want to. If not, make sure both axes are assigned the same key.
对其余按钮重复此过程。 请注意,L2和R2按钮实际上已注册为操纵杆:L2是轴5,R2是轴6。半按任一是低轴,而全按则是高轴。 这意味着您可以根据需要将两个不同的按键分配给肩键。 如果不是,请确保两个轴都分配了相同的键。
For the analog sticks, things can be a little confusing. The axes are:
对于模拟摇杆,情况可能会有些混乱。 轴是:
- Axis 1 Low: Left analog stick left. 轴1低:左模拟摇杆向左。
- Axis 1 High: Left analog stick right. 轴1高:左模拟摇杆右。
- Axis 2 Low: Left analog stick up. 轴2低:左模拟量保持向上。
- Axis 2 High: Left analog stick down. 轴2高:左模拟杆向下。
- Axis 3 Low: Right analog stick left. 轴3低:右侧模拟摇杆左。
- Axis 3 High: Right analog stick right. 轴3高:右侧模拟摇杆右侧。
- Axis 4 Low: Right analog stick up. 轴4低:右侧模拟量保持不变。
- Axis 4 High: Right analog stick down. 轴4高:右侧模拟量向下推。
Select the axis you want to configure and either assign them a directional button or a mouse movement.
选择要配置的轴,然后为它们分配方向按钮或鼠标移动。
Once you’ve assigned every button, you’re ready to start gaming.
分配完每个按钮后,就可以开始游戏了。
