Download DS4Windows . It allows you to use a PS4 controller natively with windows as tho it was an Xbox controller (which windows supports natively).

Because the scuf impact is a PS4 controller internally it will work ( this is how I do it ). Just connect it as a Bluetooth controller, install ds4windows and follow its setup instructions

Yeah - It works really well. I've used it for a PS5 DualSense controller and a Scuff Impact controller on Win10. No issues with Warzone. Grab the latest vesion from here: https://github.com/Ryochan7/DS4Windows/releases

Had the same problem with mine. The hex key they send with it is so cheep that it gets stripped after one use. If you use a better hex key you should be able to get it out. This is the one I got. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0001P18O6/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Consider a Strikepack instead. You add it to your standard PS4 remote to give you paddles. It's only $40. Amazon sells out quickly so I got mine at a local GameStop. Paddles are easy to program and can be mapped to any other button on the controller. I use it for the options button to check the map quickly in MWR. It has a lot of other fancy features I haven't used. One downside, it requires a wired connection.

I owned a scuff for a year before it broke. Loved the product but refuse to re-buy anything for $200+ that breaks easily. I've been using strike pack for a few months now and actually prefer it to a scuff. I get to keep using my standard PS4 remote and can feel the better quality over the scuff.

The Ps5 ones do. I’m using these on my reflex pro just fine

I have yet to test the little pump for desoldering. I only applied solder to existing points to enable mapping to L3 and R3. You can find anything for cheap on Amazon though. Almost everything on there is from China.

Hello! Please ensure that you have the appropriate drivers installed on your computer by downloading and installing the necessary third-party application below: http://ds4windows.com/

Once done, you may hold the share and PS button on your SCUF for a few moments to activate pairing mode. This will help your PC locate your controller through your operating system's appropriate Bluetooth pairing process.

​

Please keep in mind that this is third party software that we cannot officially support nor provide troubleshooting for. Like any other program you download from the internet, use at your own risk.

If you want to try out the Scuf instinct Pro you can always buy it from Amazon you’ll get it much faster. https://www.amazon.com/Instinct-Custom-Wireless-Performance-Controller-Mobile/dp/B06VTRJGCP/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?crid=3LQVU8HJWG1OB&keywords=scuf+instinct+pro&qid=1637420255&sprefix=scuf%2Caps%2C133&sr=8-3

It just attaches to your DS4 and is much cheaper, has 3 profiles and is easy to use. Here is an Amazon link, it's an Australian link but will give you the idea.

Will these work on my scuf?

I have the scuff adapter for the Elite V1. It gives the elite pad vertical, harder to press but actually pretty good, paddles:

I know it's Scuff, but there's little to break and they're good (unlike the dead Scuff controller I have in the box in the garage in shame)

https://www.amazon.co.uk/SCUF-ELITE-Paddle-Control-Directional/dp/B06XCVSMWM

I also bought the textured grips for the pad.

you want to go on ebay and order xbox one sticks especially for the left. they are like 5 dollars. the fit perfectly

something like this

I have been asking the same question, I know many people have reliability issues with all of the custom controllers.

I just settled on the Elite 2 at Costco (here) because of the great Costco return policy.

I would have been happy with a Scuf if Costco carried them.

I play on PC, Xbox, and PS4, and I settled on the Elite because people have been having success with the Brook XE adapter and the Elite Series 2 on their PS4.

My controller will be in tomorrow and I will report back.

Oh I forgot to mention the cables are on Amazon. Here’s the link: Anker Powerline+ Micro USB (10ft) The Premium Durable Cable [Double Braided Nylon] for Samsung, Nexus, LG, Motorola, Android Smartphones and More https://www.amazon.com/dp/B019Q6F9F4/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_KriWCb2BFPP18

Asking $225 ONLY due to the reason that Amazon takes their fee out which will leave me close to what I paid for it around $210-$215.

A few months back I bought a accessory pack off Amazon. Came with short and long sticks directional pad disk, triggers etc.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07Z8F7LTQ?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

The white is out of stock but I think they have other color options in stock.

It's not ideal but since scuf completely abandoned the vantage and V2 it's kind of the only option .

Check Amazon for replacement parts.

I have a Vantage 2, and I bought replacement sticks and buttons for the original Vantage. I’m hoping that they are universal for both controllers.

I’m on the same page as everyone else; bought my Vantage 2 in April, and the shit is already discontinued. Clearly they build great products 🙄.

Vantage Accessories

Just found them. Amazon - Vantage Accesory Kit

You find the right screw driver @ google and amazon!

It's not openly available. I've looked for one and have not been successful.

It's like these but in between.

Was also thinking about Collective Minds Xbox One Mod Pack - Xbox One https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07H4MPJ5X/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_-My7CbKBNGW8Y

To save money... thoughts? Although, I always like to go big or go home so...

Check Amazon or Ebay. Should be able to find some that will work with the vantage. Maybe something like this TOMSIN 8 in 1 Metal Magnetic Thumbsticks Analog Joysticks T8 Cross Screwdrivers Replacement Repair Kit For Xbox One X One S Elite PS4 DualShock 4 Nintendo Switch Pro Controller https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07GB9FBSQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_Qax1CbZPDRHY5

Is a spray about right or should I look for more of a gel?

These are the one's I bought, they arn't exact replicas and the plastic feels a little cheaper than what is used on PS4 controllers, and I would probably buy a different set and hope they are a bit better quality

https://www.amazon.com/BronaGrand-Replacement-Thumbsticks-Joystick-PlayStation-Controller/dp/B01HVA2U90/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1539907722&sr=8-3&keywords=ps4+thumbsticks

Depending on the aluminum amazon sticks, they all look similar but seem different in person, these work when testing

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00K23LKK4/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s02?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I think it's considered cheating in competitive games. Trigger could be pulled faster than usual.

Consider a strike pack. It adds paddles to a standard controller that can be mapped to anything. I use it for the options button to open up the map quickly.

Im exactly the same as you dude. the build quality of this isnt what I expected from a piece of equipment priced at this point. I bought mine in November and the Rubber on my left thumb, probably due to sprinting, has actually sheared off. ive had to buy cheap thumb stick covers to replace it.

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Fosmon-Silicone-Controller-Nunchuck-Gamepads/dp/B016YQRYV6/ref=sr_1_6?s=videogames&ie=UTF8&qid=1459888093&sr=1-6&keywords=thumb+stick+covers

The cover is also ajar at the bottom.

I will say, function wise the SCUF has revolutionised how I play, I love it and really struggle with my standard controller now but its a real shitter that it doesnt even match the standard PS4 build quality.
