PS4 Controller to Mouse
Make PS4 controller (DualShock 4) into computer mouse with Python
Feature
I tried https://github.com/ArturSpirin/pyPS4Controller on my iMac but it didn't work, because OS X doesn't support SPP for wireless controller. It seems like only working on Linux.
this set of files should produce the necessary keys for the GP2040-CE PS4 Mode. You can quickly find it via google search but i've decided to put it here for you to use. This will make the device be able to skip 8 minute timeout
From the included README.md:

Resident Evil 3 Raccoon City PS4 Open Beta Test Details and Demo
Since their last Resident Evil 3: Nemesis PS4 Trailer developer Capcom just announced details on the upcoming Resident Evil 3 Raccoon City PS4 Open Beta Test alongside a fresh RE3 demo video and Resistance Open Beta PS4 Trailer below! 
The RE3 demo goes live on March 19th, the RE Resistance Open Beta hits PlayStation 4 on March 27th and here's more from Capcom's Social Media & Community Associate Manager Kellen Haney to quote:
The Resident Evil 3 Raccoon City demo drops on March 19, followed by the Open Beta for Resident Evil Resistance arrives on March 27.
Resident Evil 3 Raccoon City Demo
The bustling industrial metropolis of Raccoon City was the place that Jill Valentine once called home. Die-hard fans, newcomers who started with last year’s Resident Evil 2, and PlayStation aficionados are surely familiar with the city’s ultimate fate, but Resident Evil 3 sheds new light on events that happened both before and after Resident Evil 2.. To that end, the Raccoon City demo will put you right in the thick of things, so here are a few tips on how to make it through:
1.) Tread Lightly
While you may be tempted to run everywhere to make a swift escape from Raccoon City, the foes you’ll face along the way can be surprisingly agile. Sometimes it’s best to slow down a bit to avoid running into the open arms of a nearby zombie... or worse.
On the flip side, there are times where running is your only option – say, if a certain bioweapon hell-bent on eliminating all traces of Jill Valentine decides to drop in...
Either way, Jill can put her training to good use by deftly sidestepping most attacks. With just the right timing, you can even pull off a perfect dodge, giving you a faster recovery and an opportunity to turn the tables on your attacker.
2.) Stop, Look, and Listen
Jill has to make her escape among the ruins of Raccoon City. As you navigate the city streets, keep an eye on your surroundings and listen for nearby enemies, and you might just avoid becoming zombie chow.
Always keep an escape route in mind when you’re entering a new area — sometimes the best solution is not to fight at all. You might also come across some...
