PS3 controller + Xinput problem

Post by bigou38 »

hello,

I'm french and sorry for my bad English
I use my PS3 controller (drivers ds3drv_dx_1.02 and ForceFeedbackDriver) under windows 7 32bit with Xbox360 controller (Xinput).
everything worked very well, even vibrations in games where the controller 360 is recognized natively. (Crysis, batman etc. ..).
But to play ti "call of duty modern warfare 2", I decided to buy Xpadder (great program).
I set all my keys Ps3 and everything works well, but for the vibrations I need to use XInput (xbox360 emulator), but I have a problem with my DualShock3 and Xinput, when I put in xinput1_3.dll and x360ce.ini Files in Xpadder folder , Xpadder message : xbox 360 compatible: yes.
but I have only 4 buttons that work (vibration = ok)
if I remove the file xinput1_3.dll directory, all my buttons work under Xpadder.

I can not find solutions ....
Can you help me

Thanks in advance

P.S : if the question has been asked, I apologize.

This is the first time I have heard of XIput drivers for the DualShock3. :shock: Give me a couple days to look into this.

This is the first i've heard of this too. I don't know what we can do as it sounds like its a driver issue. Good luck Cable in looking into this.

Hi !

Here is my problem a little better explained, hoping that this is understandable:)

Thanks ind advance

P.S : they are not Xinput drivers, these are drivers for DualShock3 with vibration, but I use "x360ce vibmod 3.1.4.0, emulator for
all controllers that are recognized as an xbox360 controller, there are 3 files to operate,
-XInputTest.exe (just ofr test buttons)
- Xinput1_3.dll

- X360ce.ini (my config for emulate xbox360 with my dualshock3):

I was trying out Xinput and the 360emu on my Saitek Cyborg due to trying to get those triggers on different axis. I had the same results as you when it came to xpadder. I just gave up and rehooked up my 360 troller.

I want it to work because I like the vibrations, and if I do not Xinput and I setting a button with the vibration, Xpadder malfunction, I have to kill the process to close it

I enabled the logs to Xinput emulator, here's the log with Xinput Test and Xpadder (almost the same)

First, thank you for pointing out these drivers and software. It seems that the default configs for the driver and XInput emulator needs to be changed.

We have a couple of things here. First is the ds3drv_dx driver for the DualShock3 (site is Japanese- I have no idea what it says). There are three parts to the driver- ds3drv_dx_1.03.1.14.zip driver, english settings tool, and force feed back driver and its tray tool. The force feedback tray tool is in Japanese and I have no clue in what it does or if it is neccesary. This seems like a better driver than what I've used in the past and it has an option for bluetooth but I haven't tried it yet. I created configuration for the Driver setting tool.

Save this as xpadder.ini in the same folder as the Driver setting tool, open the tool and choose File>inport (sic-it is spelled wrong in the program). Also make sure the "Enable advanced mode" box is checked.

Next is the x360ce vibmod program. It is a XInput emulator used for DirectX controllers to work with XInput games. This is where your problem lies. The default binds are something crazy. This is what I made.

Since I had my 360 controller already as pad 1 I had to set pad 1 as native and change I made the PS3 as pad 2. Add the above code section to just below the index portion of the pad your PS3 controller is.

Now you can create a controller layout in Xpadder or use mine.

Interesting, rumble doesn't work in the XInput test tool but does work in Xpadder. With XInput disabled the drivers force feedback driver causes a core loop error in Xpadder.

I would say this driver is about 85% there, six axis works, analog buttons and Dpad, and bluetooth. The only complaints I have is the Driver setting tool is not very intuitive and has no documentation or help system. Have to manually load driver through the devices properties in device manager. No English force feedback tray applet.

This is not the easiest thing to setup, do some searching only, there may be tutorials somewhere (if you find one feel free to post a link). These are third party drivers- Use at your own risk. If you need a lot of help these may not be your best choice.

Thank you very much!

However, I had to edit some point because your configs were not fully functional, I post below my config files if it can help someone else.

For information, the rumble works great with me and Xinput Xpadder.
