Hi-
Thanks for advise from this group first of all. I just bought a PS3 Dualshock3 controller and have it plugged in via USB to my computer. When I first plug it in all 4 of the lights on the front of it flash. Device manager sees the controller but when I go into the test or calibration tab I get nothing.
I installed Motionjoy and it is not seen there either and when trying to install the driver from there I get :
Error Code OX - 1ffffdfa
In the CF client it does see the controller but on boot I get this error:
Error while opening/initializing input device:
Traceback (most recent call last)
File "cfclient\utils\input.pyc",line 225 in startInput
ValueError: u'PS3_Mode_1 is not in the list

Help!!
Thanks again.

For Windows XP you should not need MotionJoy, it should work out of the box.

The error you are getting is solved by deleting the C:\Users\your_user\AppData\Roaming\cfclient directly. Please have a look at this page for instructions. Do not use the load feature when doing the configuration. If you still don't get any input try pressing the "Playstation" button in the middle of the controller.

Thanks for that info. I dont seem to have that exact folder path but have
C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\cfclient

see attached.

Thanks again.

That's the one.

Okay error gone still no values.
You rock by the way.

If you click on "Input Device" > "Configure device mapping" and there select your controller and click "Configure", can you assign yaw, thrust etc. to the sticks?

When I do that the values don't change at all. It just tells me to move the stick or push a button with no results.

Press the round "Playstation" button in the middle of the controller and then try it again.

Yup tried that earlier and got nothing.
Any other ideas?

So if you press "Detect" in the dialogue you are now for the thrust and push the right analog stick all the way to the top it doesn't work even after pressing the "Playstation" button?
