PS3 controller recognized, does not detect sticks or any buttons

Post by Otis »

downloaded xpadder, plug in USB for PS3 dualshock 3 controller and both my computer and xpadder recognize the controller. when i attempt to set the keys and i get the prompt to press the buttons to detect, it does nothing.

Which drivers are you using? Some require you to configure the sticks and buttons to DirectInput inputs.

Windows does not have drivers compatable with the PS3 controller and Sony has not released any either. You will need to install third party drivers.
