Re: How to get the PS3 controller running

One thing I've found is that every time I restart my PC, I need to open MotionJoy's control panel back up, select the correct profile and click the Enable button again. The Enable button is the thing I always forget about.. until I remember it again. :roll:

Yeah thats right, and additionally you have to be online to get MotioninJoy working therefore I prefer Better DS3. You still have to have the MotiininJoy driver installed and start Better DS3, but it automaticly applies the right configuration and its much smaller, nicer and works offline.

Hi there, i still have the Problem with the right stick. In the Game Controle Panel it works just fine, sliding to the sides or pushing R3... but it wont work ingame, FIFA for example. I followed every step you mentioned in your tutorial. Any ideas? :(

Have you tried configure it in the "Input device->Configure device mappings" in the cfclient?

I'm note sure we are talking about the same thing and that you are in the right forum? Are you having trouble using the PS3 controller in cfclient to control the Crazyflie or having problem using it as a gamepad to play games with in windows?

fact is, when i go into the game control Panel, it seems to work just fine.
but when i go to calibrate the Controller, the Z-axis and the Y-Rotation dont move at all. and i guess they should do so or?
