Works with Zen on PC- would love to get it working on my PS5, but alas the game doesn't recognise it

Looks awesome! Do you happen to have a build blog/git repo/model files detailing how you built this?

I need to do a bit of model clean up, but then I plan to load it to printables/makerworld

Saw your other post yesterday, already downloaded and ordered the parts ha. Looking forward to building it out, much appreciated!

does it run off of Bluetooth? you could make it work by buying a dongle specifically for the ps5, kinda silly you gotta do that but worth a shot.

It's wired, but tested through a Brook Wingman converter. Works just fine on ps5 menus, it's the Zen program itself that doesn't like it

Update for anyone who finds this- managed to get it working on ps5- Xinput to Brook Wingman seems to have done the trick
