USING PS3 CONTROLLER ON MAC AS AN XBOX CONMTROLLER INSTALL

If you install OIS from the link above, and make/run the 'ConsoleTest' project, you can see the output from the controller in the debug window.ДЄdditionally, here's enums i've been using that match to the axes/button numbers produced by SDL (note not OIS, which i've now decided not to use, numberings could well be the same).

Anyhow, if anyone does purchase one of these to use for gaming on OSX, rest assured you have not wasted your money. Getting your PS3 controller on Mac wireless to work is a simple process that you can do on your own if you have all the right equipment. It also has a pseudo XBox 360 controller layout for the left joystick / joypad which have been swapped over. So, an hour or so of fiddling and trying different libraries, and it seems OIS (and SDL) just recognises the controller as a joystick and provides me with everything I need. However, this is a very nice controller and great value at ВЈ18 delivered from Amazon.
