johnodon Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 Pairing the XBOX360 controller to a Microsoft Wireless Gaming Receiver in WIN10 is pretty straight forward. However, I'm having trouble doing the same with a PS3 Sixaxis controller. Is there anyone out there who has had success? TIA! John Quote Link to comment

I currently dont have a BT adapter connected but IIRC it worked with a usb BT adapter. The pcsx2 XInput Wrapper also does not have ads (and maybe even adware or malware) like "MotionInJoy". EDIT: The original developer of the xinput wrapper stopped updating it. But someone created a new version using the source code. http://forums.pcsx2.net/Thread-ScpToolkit-XInput-Wrapper-aka-ScpServer-Reloaded Quote Link to comment

I have tried both (and also the latest version of the second one from github). For 3 days now they are driving me nuts! Either it doesn't see the BT adapter (the most common v4.0 that everyone buys) or the controllers just won't connect to it. I had this working on my T430 at one point so I was wondering if my issues were more VM related (i.e. not enough power for the adapter). I just stubbed a PCI-E USB card for use with the WIN10 VM to see if that helps. John Quote Link to comment
johnodon Posted September 10, 2016 Author Share Posted September 10, 2016 UPDATE: I guess 4 is a charm. I'm not sure if stubbing the USB controller was the key (I think it was for syncing the controllers to the BT adapter as it took twice to disconnect/connect) but everything seems to be behaving. Time to load up Steam BPM with games and let the boys have at it. If all goes well, I will be returning a $350 PS4 this weekend. Not to mention..cough cough...no more buying games...cough cough.

SpaceInvaderOne Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 i have not tried a ps3 controller, but now use a ps4 controller on my win 10. It works really well and i find it far better than when i used a 360 contoller with usb wireless adaptor. software i use is http://ds4windows.com/ but doesnt work with dualshock 3 im afraid Quote Link to comment
johnodon Posted September 10, 2016 Author Share Posted September 10, 2016 I'm just going to say... THIS IS F'ING AWESOME! scpserver is working Beautifully! 2x PS3 dualshock controllers paired. I have about 12 games loaded up on the server. A GTX 950 is passed through to a WIN10 VM running Kodi. I am using Advanced Launcher as a frontend and it has not had a single hiccup. The boys are playing Gauntlet Slayer Edition right now and LOVING it. I return the PS4 tomorrow! BTW...LEGO games rule! lol Batman, Star Wars, Avengers, Harry Potter, POTC, LOTR, Hobbit, Jurassic World, Indiana Jones, etc. It's all good! Quote Link to comment
