For the visual learners

To play with a DS4 as an xbox360 controller, you need:

A DualShock 4
A microusb cable or blutooth capable wireless card (2.0 or greater)
This program: http://ds4windows.com/ (I am not the creator or owner of DS4Windows)

Download the zip and extract to anywhere.
Run the DS4Windows.exe and go through the setup; it will install xbox 360 and DS4 drivers all on it's own.

Launch the program and go to settings and check the hide DS4 option (this prevents your computer from seeing the dinput version of the DS4)

I, personally, would also check the launch at start up box.

This pretty much all you need to know for a standard usage experience, but if you wish to use more features like binding buttons to keyboard actions or change the color of the lightbar (mine's a rainbow), you can do that in the profiles tab. A common problemt is double inputs being read in some games (hasn't happened to me in SFV) which can be fixed by closing DS4Windows through task manager, then close steam and any program that uses a controller. Then launch DS4Windows and click "Connect DS$ Exclusively (experimental)". Then you either plug in or connect though BT. More info on features and such at http://ds4windows.com/
