Now whenever I plug in the USB to my system it just continuously blinks. Just plug and play, or connect over Bluetooth. I know the controller does actually have analog triggers because they work in the PS3(as an analog input) ex. My PS3 afterglow controller has always worked great but recently the USB drive just stopped connecting. Windows is supported fully out of the box, seeing as this is Microsofts flagship controller. The generic driver that windows forcefully installs Doesn't see the triggers as analog inputs and i cannot find a compatible driver that does.
And yes i have already tried installing the DS3 motionjoy drivers but it came up with an incompatable driver message. The answer to this question is no, you do not need Motioninjoy for this method of connecting a PlayStation 3 controller on a PC. Step 1: Powering on the Afterglow Wireless Headset. My problem is that DS3 tools wont see the controller and xpadder doesnt see the analog triggers. I have gotten other PS3 controllers to work and emulate XBOX 360 controllers but this one isn't actually recognized as a "PLAYSTATION(R) 3 controller" instead its recognized as "wierless controller for ps3" I was excited when i plugged in the usb dongle into the PC and the controller actually worked after a generic driver install! but after a quick attempt to emulate a xbox 360 controller i realized that the analog triggers were only recognized as a digital button How do I pair my Afterglow Wireless controller to my USB dongle Plug the new USB dongle into your PS3. I have a wireless afterglow ps3 controller that i wanted to use as a PC controller.
