Problem using ps3 controller on my pc - triptych - 07-22-2010

wopp convinced me to use this for roms last night, it's still a good idea but for some reason, the pc doesnt detect that the controllers analog sticks are there

i can use the L3 and R3 buttons, but i'm required to use the dpad for movement/aiming, which is really annoying. anyone know how to fix it?

or what the problem is?

Look around for some PS3-PC controller drivers, they should remedy the problem.

Also make sure you map things accordingly with a 3rd party program like Xpadder it makes things MUCH smoother.

Xpadder or gamepad companion can make analog sticks and pressure sensitive buttons (ie triggers) work.
Most programs like that require you to have them running while you play the game though..

You got it working then? Got a link to the drivers? im currently only using mine on my mac so pc drivers would be great.

also, are you using it wirelessly?
if yes, does your pc have built in wireless or a wireless card?
