I followed this article and got an error when trying to map the controller. When entering "moonlight map controller.map" it brings back the following:
connect to controller.map...
Generating certificate...done
Can't connect to server controller.map
I can't seem to find a solution for this problem on the internet. I hope someone can help me with this.
Why has my comment be deleted?
sorry, didn't see it xD
Can you please update this article, moonlight no longer uses "moonlight map" command anymore. I am having a hard time using the updated gamecontrollerdb.txt file to update and it seems moonlight is not recognizing my controller
