PS3 R2 and L2 buttons problem

[Kuda Izka]

Hi, guys, I have a problem using PS3 control. All buttons works fine except for R2 and L2 buttons. Is there any solution for this?

As somebody who is using a PS3 Dualshock3 controller right now as my primary PC controller, I know exactly how to help you with this (my L2 and R2 buttons work perfectly fine in this game.)

I want you to start by uninstalling whichever PS3 controller drivers you may've already installed. I'm guessing that you googled this and were told to install ScpToolkit or some other PS3 controller drivers for Windows because a PS3 controller simply won't work on Windows by just plugging it in. In my experience, all of these third-party drivers for PS3 controllers have been awful.

Now, this is going to sound crazy, but trust me. Install "Playstation Now" on your PC, directly from Sony's website. Playstation Now contains Sony's official PS3 and PS4 controller drivers for Windows. You don't ever need to use Playstation Now and you don't need to sign up for an account or anything, just install it. You may have to restart your computer afterwards, but now your PS3 controller will function perfectly in Steam games.

Ok, thanks, I'll do that. :)
