  • *PS3 CONTROLLER ON PS3 and FFXIgamepad config setup!

    hey all, so i have just installed my PS3 controller to work with ffxi! i decided to help u through the WHOLE thing, and a good controller setup (EXACTLY) like the PS2 controller! i will soon be putting EVERYTHING into one zip along with a picture filled PDF... maybe not picture filled, but oh well. so here's the guide!

    REQUIREMENTS:
    this zip file:
    File Details-SIXAXIS-driver-for-PC-PlayStation-3 -
    a PS3 sixaxis controller
    the USB cord u use to charge ur controller
    a 32 bit OS, not sure if it works on 64 bits (works on vista, too!)

    INSTALLING THE DRIVERS:
    1.) unpack the zip into a conviently placed folder.
    2.) run libusb-win32-filter-bin-0.1.10.1.exe and install that
    3.) plug in your controller via USB cord
    4.) run ps3sixaxis_en.exe
    5.) press the PS button

    now, you have your controller drivers installed. go to the Control Panel, and double click the controllers icon. see the youtube video below on how to calibrate your controller.

    FFXI GAME PAD CONFIG
    ok, now here is an image of what your config will look like. (run the .exe at C:\Program Files\PlayOnline\SquareEnix\FINAL FANTASY XI\ToolsUS\FFXiPadConfig.exe).



    and here is how to setup the analog sticks/d-pad in another youtube vid :D

    RESULT:
    ok, here is a vid of the controller working in ffxi! (on youtube again )
    please note: THIS IS NOT ME AND SIXAXIS FUNCTION DOES NOT WORK! USED SOMEONE ELSE VID SO YOU CAN SEE IT DOES WORK! JUST SIXAXIS DOESNT!

    I use this as well.

    It works okay, though it doesn't support force feedback if you're using a DualShock3, and if you're using the official windower there are a few seconds without response when you select the game window from another open program.

    If you've got a 360 controller to use with Windows, or a PS2 -> PC adapter, I'd recommend that. This works fine for the most part, though.

      lol, but this way is free, and for us who dont have a 360 but do have a ps3 and dont want to spend 10 bucks on the adapter, this is great :D btw, uploading vids now

      EDIT danm, youtube is being slow as hell, google video just isn't working, and metacafe thinks i dont have an up to date version of adobe flash player >> which i dont BTW... so umm... i guess we're all SOL until one of them works!

        I cannot get the d-pad to work on win xp...

        The Setup is hard for me, the biggest problem is the Camera constantly spins I cant figure it out...
