Airflo PS3 Controller?

[sekhmet777]

I just bought a ps3 controller for my pc and i cant seem to get it to work on any of my games. I have a lot of mods on skyrim so that might be the reason. Please help because i really would like to use my controller.

Did you use any software with your controller or just plugged it in ?

i just plugged it in

PS3 controllers dont have official or automatic drivers for the PC.
Try using this and see if it will work but if its not an offical playstation controller I cant make any promises

I think it won't work that way. If you plug in xbox 360 or logitech controller it will work immediately but with the ps3 controller you need to follow some steps to make it work.

I hope this will help you: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TpSaOJJIun8

try reboot of your PC with the controller already plugged in.

i use a logitech f310 with no problems in skyrim, but when i play ESO i need a 3rd party program like XPADDER

also make sure controller is checked on in settings.

I use ScpServer. It is way better than MotionInJoy and you only have to activate it once, instead of before everytime you use it.

This is a nice and easy tutorial for it. 4 Steps. Download Xbox360 accessory driver, download ScpServer itself, plug the controller in, then install ScpServer and you are all set.

Most games will let you choose between keyboard and gamepad. Others will automatically detect the controller, it you decide you don't want to play with it then just unplug it. I personally do not use a controller for skyrim as I have too many hotkeys set up thanks to mods.

+1 for SCP server. I can recommend it over motionjoy having used both. SCP server also allows the controller to be used via bluetooth but it can be a little finnicky depending on the bluetooth dongle and driver being used.
