Playstation 3 controller with project 64

I was wondering if it's possible to use a playstation 3 controller with project 64, wirelessly?

Do you have the means to attach it to your PC?
If so yes.

He said wirelessly.

As long as his computer has Bluetooth 2.0, then yes.

Well, i got a bluetooth usb adapter, if that's what you mean?

This utility should do the trick for you.
After you have installed the drivers you will need to go into your Controller Plugin within PJ64.
We as a community recommend using the latest release of the N-Rage plugin.
Select to use your new device, configure the buttons, then click apply.

I see, i just prefer not to have any software installed to use it.

 

[NES_player4LIFE]

Why can't you install the software?

 

[Ultimatium]

Well i could, but as i said, i prefer not to have it installed.

The program only weighs 4,101KB

It just seems a bit strange that you have to install a third party program to use it, when most controllers does not require it?

 

[NES_player4LIFE]

The PS3 hardware is not plug and play.

It says in this video that you need bluetooth 4.0 to use it, so im not sure if it's backwards compatible?

 

[NES_player4LIFE]

I have this bluetooth USB adapter.

Then I guess you should be all set then.
Is there an issue with the configuration?

Bluetooth 2.0 is for PS3, 4.0 is for PS4.

I see, thanks for clarifying.

Mayflash. It's the best decision I've made in a while in PC gaming.

I figured out a solution. I bought a playstation 3 controller and installed the drivers from this website. It works without any problems. I suggest to avoid the motion joy program, as it's full of virus and spyware, plus it causes problems for most people.

Before I used Windows 7 with Sony laptop.. You are right about motion joy.. Its not good program because of virus and spyware. PCSX2 team recommend this one:

Anybody else.. Try this link above. It is safe and approval by PCSX2 team.

Anyway, I tried and worked great! Now, I no longer have a Windows anymore.

The MAC OS X with a retina is the one I am using right now and it is easy and less hassle because I do not need any programs to installed the hassle tools to playing SNES, PCSX2, Dolphin, and anything with my PS3 controller. A Mac OS X come with bluetooth in it and it is easy for me. All I have to do just let bluetooth turn on and read my PS3 controller and there you go. Less hassle.
