I'm probably clutching at straws here and believe these problems aren't going to be addressed to soon. I did not test with any of the games you mention because I do not own them, but I only used MAME OSX and it works fine with and without. The Ps3 controller ( ) seems to work for me, however once in a while I have wireless pairing issues, so I just disabled it and continued with it hooking it via USB port. If only Apple could try and address this area properly as it strives to make it's MacBook Pro range even more appealing, otherwise people will give up and switch to something like the new Razer Blade laptop by to take the pain out of gaming ( ) The problem appears to be the very flakey support that Apple provides with it's drivers for Bootcamp, besides the problems with trying to connect to the Ps3 controller it's also neigh on impossible to connect to some or most Bluetooth headsets with a proper connection.ĭoes anyone know of a fix for the inbuilt Bluetooth adapter within Bootcamp? when playing Dirt 3, so the Bluetooth adapter is capable of connecting with the PS3 controller. The Bluetooth adapter is not seen, yet we know the Bluetooth connection is established within OS X Lion, i.e. The best functionality for now appears to be achieved with the MotionInJoy software which provides drivers for the PS3 Dualshock 3 controller BUT you are completely unable to get it to recognise the inbuilt Bluetooth adapter, in my case which is inside the MacBook Pro. Does anyone know of any available or in the making?Įven more important here because the majority of the 'big games' are unfortunately Windows based still (Battlefield 3, BBC 2, MW3, Black Ops, Skyrim, SW Old Republic etc etc). What's needed is definitive driver/controller software that will give full PS3 Dualshock 3 SixAxis functionality with possible customising ability for any games that don't map the button very well. (The Tattibogle driver cannot be used in Lion) There's no SixAxis sensor support at all from what I can see, no customisation for games that need it and the 1 to 4 LED indicator lights on the controller don't act as they are supposed to. Functionality in Batman Arkham Asylum and terrible functionality in Gamelofts Asphalt 6 in which you can't reconfigure the button settings. It works in the App Store App version of Dirt 2 but with 'no' vibration feedback at all. I couldn't get it to work in Call of Duty 4. Once paired, it will function only with some games with limited use, i.e. Partial drivers appear to be built in to OS X Lion, but initial pairing can be difficult. PS3 controller - what a headache this area is.Ĭurrently there is some functionality using the PS3 Dualshock 3 SixAxis controller in both Bootcamp & OS X Lion, BUT only if you work stressfully hard to set it up and download sone software.
