PS3 Controller & Transformer Prime

jzen said:

I got my ps3 controller working once i finally rooted. It works well with shadowgun and FPse... I just wish you could map the buttons to what you want, kinda awkward using the analog press button to fire...

Anyone know how to change this? No matter what I set my buttons too in the sixaxis app it doesn't seem to change.

But overall its not that bad, and its really fun for shadowgun.

If your thinking about getting the Gamestop bluetooth controller, dont... its a POS. I had it bundled with my first prime and the controller (and the GS prime) was a POS. It was ugly and the only game I could get it to work with was shadow gun (not as a real controller but just like the sixaxis app, keyboard input override).

okay i used the app : Sixaxis Controller, (Dancing Pixel Studios) and used this controller setup:

dpad center is for fire i set that to both R2 and R! plus the start key to be able to select menu options.
7 is for reload and i set that to L1 and L2
J is for analog 2 left
L is for analog 2 right
I is for analog 2 up
K is for analog 2 down
dpad left for analog 1 left
dpad right for analog 1 right
dpad up for analog 1 up
dpad down for analog 1 down
back for select which pause the game
now for the weapons. (only figured out for two)
A is for shotgun set that to square
D is for SMG set that to x
W is for Shotgun and i have that at Triangle
guessing S is for the 4th weapon but will verify if need to

Hope this helps.

Have you tried plugging your PS3 controller into your computer and changing the Bluetooth address to the same as your prime. Then searching for it on your prime?

You still need root and six axis app to get ps3 controller to work via Bluetooth in ICS.
