HELP ; setup PS3 for FFXIV (analog sticks don't work)

Hello everyone,

so I tried the gamepad mode in the pc edition today and it worked fine except i cant move the camera around and I can't use the analog sticks? I can only use the D-pad for movement and the rest works fine I guess with skills/jumping etc. Anyone knows how to set it up so that it recognizes the analog sticks? And how do I set the left analog stick for character movement and camera movement for the right analog stick...? Sorry if these are all stupid questions but I just can't get the problem solved it seems. Oh and I tried to calibrate all the controls but like I said when I move the analog stick it tells me to then it just doesn't move. so yeh.

thanks in advance

You use PS3 controller on PC? The gamepad controller needs to be X-Input compatible, so like Xbox360 or Logitech F310 (wired) or F710 (wireless). AFAIK PS3 controller on PC (via bluetooth) is not X-input device and not officially support.

You may hunt around to see how to configure PS3 as "Xbox360" via a 3rd party utility, but it is a bit of a hack job.

Check the game's Windows manual

If your using the drivers I think you are with your PS3 controller, change the layout to Xbox360 or PS2 controller.
