Once Better DS3 Tool is installed, connect your PS3 controller to your PC via USB and open up the Better DS3 Tool. An icon for a PS3 controller should show up on the menubar at the bottom of your PC screen on the righthand side. Once there select the new button and select xinput from the dropdown menu.ĭouble click the PS3 controller icon to pull up the Better DS3 Tool Menu. Name the profile something easy to remember like 'PS3 Controller'.
At the top of the screen there should be an autofill button for Xbox 360 controller inputs select this button and all the inputs for the controller should be automatically filled out. Then at the bottom righthand side of the profile setup menu there should be a save profile button click it and you are done setting up the controller profile. At the Better DS3 Tool menu select the newly created profile from the dropdown for selected profile and then click the apply button. In short, what this accomplished is that it will trick your PC into thinking that the controller connected is actually a Xbox 360 controller instead of a PS3 controller, allowing all the inputs to be used.
