i use the logitech controller ( the one with chillstream ) you dont have to install any drivers or any thing you can just play instantly works great for me
Hi. How can I make the controller ("PLAYSTATION(R)3 Controller") drivers differentiate between the d-pad and the left analog stick? Taking them for the same thing sucks. :(
Thanks!
Works amazingly thanks!!
thanks it works great. but is there a way to bind the buttons? im trying to use this controller in Lost Planet but all of the buttons are set up in a weird configuration. is there a way i can bind the buttons to the way i want them to be?
You'd most likely have to set it up the manual way.
by adding new hardware threw the patch system, its a pain and hardly worth it. It took me forever to do it with the 360 controller.
and that will let me choose which buttons do what?Quote:

I downloaded the Sixaxis drives instali it and it's steel dont work. why ???

is there a way you can help me,please?
This thread seems to have 6000 questions for every one answer. Sadly I'm going to have to add another one. Does it matter if I'm using Vista? I know the first post says WinXP and up, but I'm not entirely sure if it works in 64-bit.
how do u unzip a RAR file
Get a program such as WinRAR or ALzip that can unpack RAR archives.
I had run ps3sixaxis_en from start, Run, typing in cmd, and then running ps3sixaxis_en from there, just double clicking it didn't make the controller work on the test screen.
im having the same problem when i run the program it goes on for a second before it turns it self off. when i go to my task manager i dont see anything different. i dont think its runs anyway how to fix this?
Seriously, have you not read any of the previous pages?Quote:

Does anyone know how to completely remove the libusb program? I downloaded the drivers but not from this site, and it was packed with the 1.12.1 version of libusb, when I uninstall it and install libusb 1.10.1 it does not work, the test says version 1.12.1 driver version -1,-1,-1,-1. I deleted the libusb0.dll from windows/system32 but it did nothing the driver version stays the same and so does ther version number, any idea's?
Hello everyone my brother had installed your PS3 Sixaxis drivers and it works perfectly for RE4. And well through some trouble shooting it appears to be interfering with my Creative Vision M. Now..i know how to enable the USB through command prompt using ps3sixaxis_en..but...how do i disable it exactly?
My controller is wokring perfectly now (aside from the configuration). The sensitivity problem is over with. the one problem is that the game I want to play the most (a crack of Madden '08 on the PC) keeps crashing when I try to change the button config with the PS controller. Any suggestions? Happening in any other games or is it simply because my version is a crack?
thank you so much!!!Quote:

You are my savior!
now for some n64
For those having trouble unzipping files - its called google. Use it like your life depended on it.
Worked and was easy as pie. Thanks very much!
Anyone that is STILL having trouble (like i was) try TURNING OFF YOUR PS3 if you have one near your computer.
If its on while your trying to use a ps3 controller on your pc, its not going to work.
happend with me too
i did what it said and i ran the .exe that opens the command prompt and then ran p64 and halo and it worked great but after i restarted my computer it was being recognized but wouldnt work anymore even after many unisntall reinstall attempts
ok although i consider myself a complete idiot i may have found something on the issue of it not working ... first have i tplugged in and go start>run>cmd .... that should open command prompt then drag the ps3sixaxis_en.exe onto the command prompt this should enter the directory to it and hit enter... wait and it should say "found plastation 3 controller" now go to start all programs and open the libusb test program... u should see something implicating its recognizing the ps3 controller....now the problem i had is it would always say the name of another usb device i had plugged in so u can try either re running ps3sixaxis_en.exe through cmd and checking under the libusb test program to see if it recognized it and if not try unplugging the detected usb device and running ps3sixaxis_en.exe again. after u get libusb to recognize it u should be set but the main issue i had is it would do this crap all over again when i unplugged the controller or restarted my computer so just run libusb test and do all that crap again till it works.
I have it working to the point where the controller shows/can be calibrated via the control panel.
My problem is that no games i have tried it on (admittedly only CoD4/BIOshock so far) have accepted the input AT ALL.
Is this a game compatibility thing or can i fix this? I personally prefer mouse+keyboard in almost any scenario but my brother is more comfortable with dual joystick.
If all else fails i know the 360 pad is practically plug and play but i don't have a 360 and would rather not have to spend the cash on a controller for a console i don't have.
*edit* it seems to work with games that accept joystick input (X3 and FlightSimX tested in a moment of inspiration). Which sucks because why the hell would i play any game that i use my x45 for with a dual joy (okay, maybe mechwarrior but that is a stretch)?
Does anyone know of a way that i can install it as a standard gamepad as opposed to a joystick (using a generic driver or the like)? Maybe if i could do that i would be able to bind, i doubt it would work but it is probably worth the trouble to save me the cash for a new control pad (we be po').
Also can anyone confirm if placing sixaxis_en.exe in the start folder runs it properly at boot?
*edit number 2* using this program http://www.redcl0ud.com/controlmk/index.html i was able to bind it to my keyboard/mouse so i guess i solved my own problem in that regard. ill test my startup question after im happy with my binds, ill let you know if it works (if anyone is actually reading this).
i cant get this to work it just keeps asking me to open or save no matter what i click
Worked for me too.Thanks a lot!!!
VISTA USERS:
64 bit is not supported, you have to hope that both libusb and the sixaxis loader get updated (which isn't looking likely)
32 bit there is a workaround, here's how to do it:
1- download the package (http://dl.qj.net/SIXAXIS-driver-for-...1679/catid/518)
2- unpackage the files to somewhere you will keep them.
3- if you have previously installed it, make sure you delete the files C:\Windows\System32\libusb0.dll and C:\Windows\System32\drivers\libusb0.sys. This applies even if you uninstalled it already.
4- right click the installer (libusb-win32-filter-bin-0.1.10.1.exe), go to the compatibility tab, and choose XP SP2 compatibility.
5- right click the installer and run it as administrator.
6- when the installer is done you can plug your controller in
7- run ps2sixaxis_en.exe
8- press the PS button a few times, and it should now work.
General tips:
* You have to run ps2sixaxis_en.exe every time windows starts (I just put a shortcut to it in my start menu -> startup)
* Remember that if your PS3 is nearby you have to turn it off at the switch or wall
* I read that some games will recognise the left stick as a joystick, although I haven't tried it out yet
* Don't use the latest libusb, it doesn't work with ps2sixaxis_en.exe and it gives you a BSOD every time you shutdown.
Spread the word:
Not many people know how to get it working on Vista - it took me a bit of trial and error to make it work. If you know people/boards who need this info copy/paste it to them. It'll only take you a few seconds.

Pro evo08 detects all the buttons fine but cause there is no calibration in rugby my left stick is to run fast and everything is just in the wrong place.
Get a free PS3 by clicking on th link:

If im not allowed to do this please let me know and i will delete it.
i installed the driver and when i get run the ps3sixaxis_en.exe a cmd prompt comes up for 1 second and says five buses found
i ran the test as well and it registered everything well what can the problem be?
Does anyone know if this supports like all games? The controller works fine but all i really have on my comp for a controller is steam games. I tried 'Portal' i can move backwards forwards etc with the left analogue but no other button did anything. e.g. No way to shoot a portal, look up or down. Any help on this im not great with figuring out these sorts of things and also im pretty lazy :P
I got my controller to work, I went to configure the controller. When going to do analog stick, I can only set up and left up and right, down and left or down and right for each analog stick.
I am using Project 64 and No Mercy, Every other control I can do but the analog sticks, now I only have two taunts because I can only use two of the directions on each analog stick.
I had to divide up the c-buttons one of them is square, left and right ones are the l2 and R2 triggers, l1 and r2 are the L and R buttons
I can play the game but can only perform two taunts, not a big deal but still.
Will take some getting used to but I can play the game no problem and that is all that matters, so I lose two taunts, big deal everything else works.
ok i got it to work but how do i stop the lights from flashing cause the controler does not work with them on.
hey the guy with the command prompt issue.. goto start click run then type in cmd and click ok.. then navigate and run the exe is wont disapear
Same problem guess i got no luck with using Vista nad all lol.
nt
Doesnt work with Windows XP Pro x64 Edition
hmmm..
works like a charm....i tried to check everything in the control panel....every button responds...
but sadly.....in fifa07 ..... the buttos "X" "O" "[]" and "/_\" are unconfigurable...the game just does not recognises these buttons.
Is there a way i could like use a script to give it ps2 style macros?
