Super12464 Posted August 26, 2013 Posted August 26, 2013 Hi, I have been having issues with using a PS3 controller in GameEx. I have PS3 controller selected in configuration, but nothing works. I then tried downloading MotionJoy, still no results. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong? Thanks for the help!
nullPointer Posted August 26, 2013 Posted August 26, 2013 Howdy Super12464So is your DualShock working in other applications and/or games? I know that the DualShock can appear to be recognized by Windows and yet still not function properly as a controller. The installation of the MotionInJoy Drivers is a bit of an arduous process and it's quite a bit more involved than installing 'standard' Windows drivers. Just to double check you may want to verify that you correctly followed all the necessary steps to properly install the MotionInJoy drivers.Good luck man!

It's one that I haven't tried, but have heard good things.Further if you do decide to stick with MotionInJoy, I'd highly recommend using this in place of the default configuration utility (DS3_Tool.exe). 1
RIP-Felix Posted September 3, 2013 Posted September 3, 2013 I've used motioninjoy for years and even made an executable script to open the interface and enable the profile I wanted. The problem was that I had to pair my PS3 controller first then run a game through GameEX and put my EXE in the run before field to get it to enable the controller. I was also limited to the 060005 version because there was a local pluin that allowed it to run offline. The better DS3 tool completely nullifys the need for my DS3tool_enabler.exe and the plugin...finally! There is an option to enable a profile automatically when your controller is paired. Just put the better DS3 executable in your startup folder, or run before GameEX if you prefer, and whenever you pair the controller your profile will automatically load, no need to even open the motioninjoy, it's all offline.This is how you make your computer a PS3! It's just like I dreamed of...finally! I'm glad I saw this. Freaking awesome.
