PS3 Controller:

XP users please refer to this [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]

• Install MotionJoy & plugin your controller
• Open the program “DS3 Tools” & Click Driver Manager
• Select Load driver & allow it to install
Now Windows will see the controller in Controller configurations, but to use it with vindictus we aren’t done yet.

• Select the Xbox360 Emu option and click Enable
If Your on Windows 7 or Vista there will be another driver installed automatically, XP users don’t worry. To see if everything is dandy click “Game Controller Panel” in DS3 Tools. It should say something like “Controller (xbox 360 Wireless Receiver for Windows)” Click properties & the controller should be responsive. Right now would be a good idea to Calibrate it.

• Load up Vindictus & go into Advanced Options, then click Xbox 360 in the list of of Controllers

Side Note: You will have to re-enable the emulation via DS3 Tools when you restart your computer every time. Along with that the controller has to be plugged into the Same USB Port it was installed on the first time. If you want to install the controller on a different usb port you may unload the drivers & restart the steps. These are the few drawbacks to the use of a PS3 Controller.

Common Issues: Sometimes after the first installation & a restart the computer will see the controller but DS3 Tools wont. To solve this simply Unplug the Controller & Unload the driver in "Driver Manager" in the DS3 Application. Re-plugin the Controller and Allow windows update to install the PlayStation 3 Controller drivers, then go into DS3 Tools and select Load Drivers. Afterwards Reboot & Windows should start installing about 5 different MotionJoy drivers. the client should pick-up the controller again, then Re-enable 360 Emulation.
