#REDIRECT[[DualShock_controllers#DualShock_3]]
The standard Playstation 3 controller. It has a very good d-pad which is something that's hard to find nowadays. Very useful for emulating older consoles.
 
 
 
===Features===
 
 
 
*Very good d-pad
 
 
 
*10-bit precision analog sticks, pressure sensitive buttons
 
 
 
*wired or wireless modes with a Bluetooth adapter.
 
==Using on a PC==
 
 
 
Previous DualShock controllers required a special adapter to work. However, the Dual Shock 3 can connect via USB to a PC without an adapter and only requires special software to work on a PC.
 
 
 
===Windows===
 
 
 
Use the new [[XInput Wrapper SCP]]. Do not use [[MotioninJoy]] if you can.
 
 
 
===Linux===
 
 
 
On Linux, [http://qtsixa.sourceforge.net/ QtSixA] is available but [http://pingus.seul.org/~grumbel/xboxdrv/ xboxdrv], although it doesn't include a GUI, is a much more active project; use it if you run into problems.
 
 
 
===Troubleshooting===
 
====The controller is detected but input doesn't work====
 
Try the following steps:
 
 
 
# Close the emulator and stop/close the DS3 software you are using
 
# Disconnect your controller and wait for its LEDs to turn off or begin blinking slowly
 
# Connect it back and press the PS button
 
# Run the controller software
 
# Run the emulator
