Please fix controller setup for PS3 controllers

[FreakFire74]

Great game although I've been having a TON of problems configuring my controller for it!

I'm using a PS3 controllers set up as an 360 controller through Motioninjoy.. It works in any other game but when I try to configure it through Giana Sisters (the standard setup leaves much to be desired) the game does not recognize my digital controller sticks.. It only works with the D-pad.. Ive been trying to find a workaround for this but it simply does not work.. Also, since the setup tool does not even recognize my sticks I cant change the rest of the layout.. very frustrating!!!

I want to play this game.. But I cant.. Ive spent good money on it.. Please fix it.. :)

PS3 controllers should work in windows without any additional programs. Did you tried it without Motioninjoy? I have a PS2 controller with an USB adapter, which is almost like a PS3 controller this way, and it works perfectly by just plugging it in to the usb port.

yeah, a normal windows PC should auto-detect just about anything you plug in or send a signal out of. not sure why some people have to use Motionjoy.

I use a PS1 controller and it works perfectly with this game without even having to use x360ce. I think it's the only game I don't use x360ce on because of the controller setup in the bottom right hand corner.

Great gamepad support because of that

Motionjoy is buggy as hell.
It really messes up xinput.
It's better you deinstall and after that clean out the registry (and driver files) <- even the dreinstall process dosent work right.

Maybe you can try this instead.

But no guarantee. I sold my PS3 so i can't test it.

On the other hand the game plays good with a D-Pad.

thanks for the kind replies! :) I will try the suggestions.. I dont mind playing with the D-pad by the way, it's just that the autodetect doesn't allow me to setup either one of the sticks.. But I will try uninstalling Motioninjoy! :) Thanks again

I had no problems with motioninjoy! just set it to xbox 360 controller emulator and then it works!
