PS3 controller on a PC

    Which software do you use? I've been using Motioninjoy but it's horrendous. Are there any alternatives?

    I use MotionJoy and it works great.

    Arn't xbox controllers generally considered the go to option for PC?

    I can get it to work but the actual controls keep fucking up. I couldn't find a setting that works for NBA 2k13 and when I eventually did, the next time I turned on the computer, the settings returned to default and I can't remember what I had.

    Yeah. But I don't have an xbox so fuck buying one.

    I just use MotionInJoy with XBox controller emulation.

    MotionInJoy works brilliantly for me on 2k13.

    With a PS3 controller?

    Care to upload your controls from the Profile Editor?
     
  8. Frizzed WC Welker

    Nah I use an Atari controller.

    wired controllers cost like 10 dollars

    Just open MotionJoy and click the XBOX 360 controller emulator checkbox. That's all you have to do, then just click Enable. I also like setting LED to Custom 1, so that I know when it's connected.

    I've got a wire, that's not the problem. It's the actual controls themselves that you set through motioninjoy. So many of the buttons don't actually work.
     
  12. Bender BG Herd

    i mean wired xbox controllers
     
  13. Eds E Ames

    yeah this works for actual gameplay but doesn't for any of the out-of-match stuff.

    IIRC I am using this

    Triangle = Button 1 = Block/Rebound
    Circle = Button 2 = Shoot/Steal
    Cross = Button 3 = Pass
    Square = Button 4 = Screen/Take charge

    L1 = Button 5 = Something I don't use
    R1 = Button 6 = Icon Pass
    L2 = Button 7 = As with L1
    R2 = Button 8 = Sprint

    Select = Button 9 = Timeout
    Start = Button 10 = Pause

    The sticks are easy enough to configure.

    Thats a pretty accurate layout apart from not keying the left side. the left trigger whilst holding r trigger gives you better shots and allows you to do more off ball moves and dribble moves :p

    Yeah I just couldn't remember what they did. :ninja:

    The better shots with L2 is new to me though. >_>
     
  17. Eds E Ames

    See, I've tried this, albeit with a few changes (eg. shoot is square/button 4 for me). But it just doesn't work in-game for me.
     
  18. Skippos SM Morgan

    Yeah I had the same issue as you Eds with Motioninjoy. It'd work perfectly and then like the next time I plugged it in it'd be ultra shit. So inconsistent and I couldn't work out why so I just dealt with it unfortunately.
     
  19. Escath LE Schaw

    I just use the XBox defaults. The two controllers are basically the same. It's only the locations of the back triggers that is any different.
