PS3 Controller

[Lombz]

I am trying to sync and calibrate my SIXAXIS PS3 controller. The only thing that I can't fix is the movement of Link. He is walking all over the place even when I am not touching anything. I can't seem to map to calibrate the directional commands even when I change the key binding. Can anyone help!

Are you using the MotionJoy drivers that make the PS3 controller work via wire or are you using Bluetooth?

I don't know about a ps3 controller but I am using a ps2 controller. ZC works better with the buttons bound to keyboard keys with a program like xmapper. I had to do that to get the D pad working.

also make sure when you're gamepad connects that the analog sticks aren't tilted at all.

I use a PS1 controller right now with no problems. By "all over the place" do you mean "one direction when you're not pressing anything"?

This.

Link basically moves in one direction constantly. I now bought a NES USB controller and I still have the same issue. Is it because I have a Mac? I keep trying to play around with the key bindings but nothing seems to help. My A B Select and Start buttons work properly though.

Does the problem still happen without a gamepad plugged in? Honestly for the same thing to happen with two completely different controllers seems really odd.

No, I can play the game fine using just the keyboard buttons when any controller is not plugged in. I just feel that it defeats the whole purpose playing easily with a USB controller and I don't know how to fix the issue. Is there anyone that can share their key bindings maps so that I can test it on my Mac?

Hi Lombz.:)

Have you tried the controller's reset by sticking a pin into the back of it, then trying to sync?

Maybe this:

Thanks for the suggestion Blanka. But I don't have Windows, I have a Mac OS system.

Oh! You mentioned that already. My bad. lol How about this maybe:

I have already done that but my main issue is that Link is moving without me moving him. I can't seem to set the directional buttons on any controller that I use. Does anyone else that has a Mac with the 2.50 version that has this same problem?

Is this what you mean?

Could be a Mac OS allegro4 bug. Hard to say because it's possible nobody ever tested those controllers on a mac build before. If this is the case it's likely allegro is sending a value of -127 to the x axis. (Is Link moving in the X-dir? I bet he is.)

Fix1: Try plugging in a PS2 or PS1 controller and making sure the "analog" button is off.
Fix2: Try downloading 2.10, although you can't play 2.5 quests on that. (2.10 doesn't have any analog input handling)
