    retrieve list of devices (controlers) from PC

    Is this possible? Retrieve list (and names of) devices for example:

    PS4 controller,
    Xbox controller
    Arcade stick

    etc.
    Thanks

    edit: to clarify - list of devices as shown in device manager on a users system.

    If you have "Joystick 2 object" then you might be able to loop through all the controllers and get the name.
    I don't have any controller at the moment so I can't test it.

    But you can see if it works.

    Yeah use a loop and just go through devices 1-16 and retrieve the name of each device. You can store these names in a list object and then later use the list object as a way to reference a specific device by number.

    I've tested it with the three pads I have:
    Logitech F710 : Recognised
    Xbox One controller : Recognized
    PS4 Controller : NOT recognized (or better it's recognized as a "wireless controller")

    I've tried in many ways (even installing the DS4Windows driver) but I never suceed to recognize it. That's a pity because the PS4 controller is pretty common.
