I have to enable that mode each time I take the controller off the dock, right? Also not all games support D-input Sony mode, and controller is seen as a different gamepad depending on the mode. I do not want switch between the modes depending on what I play. I really dislike the idea of multiple modes and is something don't want to deal with.
Yes, unfortunately it has to be done each time. Annoyingly it doesn't work as it's being taken off the dock, so I have to turn it back off then hold B and turn on again.
I've been lucky that Steam maps the controller to just about everything I play. I see where switching modes all the time would get irritating quickly.
