PPSSPP does not detect L2 and R2 with DS4 controller

PPSSPP does not detect L2 and R2 with DS4 controller
Subject says it all, but to clarify, all other button/controls on the DS4 work perfectly, including the Analog sticks, but the L2 and R2 triggers are not detected when binding controls through PPSSPP.

Also important: I am running PPSSPP for Android from the Google Play store on an Acer Chromebook R11. My DS4 is connected via USB (Bluetooth connection is not detected by any Android apps on my device -- not an issue specific to PPSSPP by any means).

I do know that my triggers function, as I have tested them with another Android app from the Google Play store ("Game Controller Key Mapper", in case you are wondering).

I am unsure if L2/R2 are not supported by PPSSPP or if this is just a bug. (Although, why they wouldn't be supported is beyond me, if that is the case)

If you have any questions, just ask! Big Grin

RE: PPSSPP does not detect L2 and R2 with DS4 controller
did you try activating mode/analog and then binding?

Try AntiMicro graphical program used to map keyboard keys and mouse controls to a gamepad/controller.

RE: PPSSPP does not detect L2 and R2 with DS4 controller
I tested my PS3 controller on my phone, also use it to play games on PC, R2/L2 buttons work fine with PPSSPP.

Phones: Poco F3 8GB/256GB (Snapdragon 870 5G) and Redmi Note 6 Pro 4/64GB (Snapdragon 636)

PC: AMD Ryzen 5 3600 / 16GB RAM DDR4 3600MHz / NVIDIA GTX 1660 Ti 6GB / Windows 10 Pro

I am not seeing an "Analog Mode" setting anywhere in PPSSPP... And if I understand correctly, the joysticks would fall under analog as well... and they work just fine.

When using the "analog test" all button/analog sticks get feedback. Except for R2 and L2...

Am I missing a setting? Is this "Mode/Analog" you are referring to the "Tilt Input Type"? (I'm assuming not because I changed that to Analog and my problem has not been fixed...) The only other analog related options I see are for Keyboard Control Setting and On Screen Touch Controls.

RE: PPSSPP does not detect L2 and R2 with DS4 controller
I am having the exact same problem. I want to map my r2 and l2 keys from my PS4 controller to triangle or circle or wherever. I know they work and that the laptop recognizes the input, but ppsspp itself isn't allowing me to use those buttons. I understand that the PSP does not have r2 and l2 and im fine with that, but I want to at least be able to use the trigger buttons as my face buttons or d pad or something. It would make a huge difference with some games (Armored Core Portable serise) and it seems like it would be simple enough to implement. Could someone help me with this? Is it at all possible to use the triggers from a ps4 controller on ppsspp or is this something that would have to be added in an update or new build?
