So...
I've downloaded the means for my PS3 controller to work on my PC (I think): MotioninJoy and Better DS3. It's obviously worked (great...a side from a few times when charging into battle and the avatar... doesn't... stop charging (lol)), but it seems that whenever I turn off my computer and turn it on again, it's a whole new battle of actually getting my controller to work. After awhile it seems to randomly cooperate. Today it just doesn't want to cooperate. I've restarted my PC, unplugged the controller, deleted my DS3 profile and swiftly made another, and so on and so forth. The weird thing is that the DS3 test works fine. But when I load the game, the controls are all switched around.

I've looked around on the internet and most peoples' problems seem to be that their controller doesn't work at all. Well, mine works. It just seems that the buttons are acting as different buttons. The right analog only works vertically (nothing happens when moved horizontally), for example, and the D-pad does the horizontal aspect.

Since I don't play other PC games, I can't tell if this is just DS3 (but again: the test works) or if it's just FFXIV. Anyone know how to... work with this? If I at least know how to get my controller to work properly, it wouldn't be such a hassle.

Thanks ahead of time. (And sorry if this topic isn't suited here. )
