===Instructions for Use===
 
Included in the download for the XInput Wrapper are three folders - '''System, Win32, Win64.''' In the System folder is a .exe file, run it. Then, if the '''program you are going to use a DS3 with''' is 32-bit, take the '''XInput1_3.dll''' from the '''Win32''' folder and place it in the program folder, in the same folder as the .exe for the program usually. For Steam games, this is usually in C:\Program Files(x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\. If the program is 64-bit, use the dll from the '''Win64''' folder. If you use PCSX-Reloaded or PCSX2, you can also use the LilyPad plugin in the '''Win32''' folder as your controller plugin.
