PS3 Controller

i bet this is when Mac OS X 10.5.x was out before 10.6.x

Snow Leopard has native support for PS3 controllers out of the box!

Just plug in the PS3 controller in your Mac And press the "PS" button a few times for 3 sec. or so.

Then unplug the controller and press the "PS" button again and Mac OS X Snow Leopard will recognize the controller without any third party drivers!

Another valid reason to upgrade to Snow Leopard lol.

Hope this helps.

Bless

@pochoun33137 yes this was before 10.6.x was released. Thats the problem with doing videos like I do. Information gets outdated rather quickly.

does it work on Snow Leopard? I already have the driver installed but I don't have a PS3 controller, because I forgot to take it with me when I left our PlayStation behind in Hong Kong (because it doesn't work in Canada)

[geebones]

how do you configure on mame osx using snow lepord

[sparced]

so you install it and thats it, no preference pane or app to launch. my controller's four lights just rapidly flash like it hasn't made a connection. only game i've got is halo and it says no game pad is connected.

[iEatGarbage]

@sparced You must connect via USB, Bluetooth won't work.

[thechelet]

never mind the question I asked

[thechelet]

does it have to be a mini usb? Can't it just be the controller charger?

[c0mputerwhiz1]

@thechelet They are the same thing. So yes, it can be your charger.

[birdwingsvids]

what games work with the controller?

[c0mputerwhiz1]

@birdwingsvids It seems to be hit and miss. Technically speaking all of them should, but a lot of them don't. I don't know for certain, sorry.

dude u might be good with a computers but ur slow as f..k

[matg41192200]

Is there any way to make the Z joystick (right side one) work as a mouse?

[h3nry05]

the site is working now

[theonlyand]

@c0mputerwhiz1 I found an application called "ControllerMate" that let's you use it in any application although it is very hard to learn

[theonlyand]

what games will this work with none of mine work with it

[c0mputerwhiz1]

I have no clue, and from what I can tell they have stopped developing this all together.

@theonlyand GridWars is pretty awesome

[ghostfacekilla3]

you really shouldnt of made a video

when that site to download it from was down

[c0mputerwhiz1]

When I made the video, the site wasn't down. That is part of doing things like this. Some of the programs I demo get cancelled, or taken offline. That is just the way it is.

[ethans789]

how do you know if it got recognized or not???

i can't get it to work w/ l4d or halo

[c0mputerwhiz1]

@ethans789 I hate to say this, but from the replies I have been getting lately, it would seem that this might now work anymore. But, you could just make sure that you have the controls for the game set right.

[ethans789]

hmm, well it got reognized and works with emulators but idk what to do for l4d

[racioppo99]

whats the application call u should have said it i cant fucking find it

[willpigott2007]

i am will.. and you are a wanker

p.s. thanks for the video!

[megatron360]

this is free right?

[c0mputerwhiz1]

yup 100% free

[megatron360]

for some reason, it doesnt work. i tried it for cod4

[c0mputerwhiz1]

Did you try and go into the COD4 settings and configure the controller. If that doesn't work then COD4 probably just doesn't support this hack.

[megatron360]

didnt work. but its ok, i bought a driver to make it work. but theres alot of work i have to do. -_-
