Anybody using their Dualshock3 controller from PS3 on the PC?

[Alizona]

I use an opensource software called "ScpToolkit" with a Bluetooth dongle to get my Playstation controller to work on my PC.

However, when I try to use it in ATS, the game doesn't seem to recognize there are two joysticks. I cannot find any way to put the truck's steering controls onto the right joystick, and put the driver's view direction onto the left joystick.

If anyone understands my post, and has solved this issue, please explain how to do it! Thx.

you use a wheel and ps3 controller (or want to)??
I used to use my dual shock for all games on pc till i got my wheel,
IF you want the ps3 controller to drive with then it worked fine for me using DS3 Tool and OR Motioninjoy (but I don't like motioninjoy, it feels semi dodgey).
IF you intent to use a controller to drive (or wheel) and a PS3 Controller for other functions then i'm unsure if that would work without some kind of conflict between controllers.

I just tried and couldnt get it to work, when the game loaded it asked if i wanted to use my controller as a mouse so i clicked yes.

Maybe clicking NO would work.

If not, maybe you could go into ur documents/ats/profiles and look at the controls file. not sure what code is needed but maybe it goes here, the up/down/left/right section (i'm not 100% sure)
looks like this
config_lines[13]: "input j_look_ud ``"
config_lines[14]: "input j_look_lr ``"

I would like to know too as it's a good idea what you ask.

I couldn't figure it out so I just went back to using the keyboard. I don't play this game very much anyways, but if I could use the controller, I might play it more.

I actually bought a wheel and pedals, but when Windows 10 came out, Logitech broke the drivers and they kept reinstalling themselves so I finally just gave up on the wheel and it now sits in its box permanently.

All the controller crap sounds nice, but quite honestly all I need to play this game is the WASD and the mouse to look around, nice and easy, nice and simple, and I don't have to get aggravated over drivers that don't work or controllers that can't do what I want them to do.

Anyhow, I hope you figure it out but I gave up on it.
