How to use ps3 stick on sf5?

Then how do I connect a 2nd PS3 stick to it for local play? When I go to options it only lets me select a P1 legacy controller and P2 is always greyed out. Is there a way to sign in as guest using only one PS4 controller?

Actually i was wrong, early reports indicated you only needed one controller to get to the auth menu, but it seems Capcom completely screwed this up. Lets hope they fix their implementation of LZs driver, because theres no reason it should require 2 controllers, not to mention the lag…

My Hori RAP N3 SA isnt working…

Hold up, not quite following . I’ve dug myself up from the ashes so forgive the noobiness.

I have a dual TEASY modded 360 TE. Since this can play on PS3, can it work on the ps4??

My QanBa Q4 isn’t really working at all.

Yeah, as far as I can tell you need two DS4s to use two legacy controllers. That’s why it’s greyed out.

My Qanba Q4RAF works on PS4.

Another thing worth mentioning is that if you turn off your controller (or let it auto shut-off) you have to re-authenticate your stick again. So may want to leave it plugged in or turn off the automatic shut-off. This means leaving your current mode and going back to the menu to re-authenticate. Pretty annoying seeing as there’s only two USB slots on the PS4 :frowning: I use one for my headset and one for my stick.

Also, my Hori Fighting Edge for PS3 works on here with no issues, in case anyone else has one and is wondering.

Can you tell me step by step what you’re doing to get it to work? My QanBa is switched to PS3 mode, I have two controllers in, nothing. All the red numbers light up but it doesn’t switch to that stick.

I’ve been hearing some things about problems with input delay and side detection, which is why it’s currently going to be banned from EVO.

The only reason I would assume you may need 2 controllers is so one of them can log in as guest.

You have to use your dualshock and go to:

  • Options
  • Other settings
  • P1/P2 legacy controller authentification
  • plug in your stick

and that’s it.

There is maybe some input delay when you use 2 PS3 sticks since since you also have to use 2 dualshocks which are wireless and may then be subject to interference.

I tested the input delay with my Madcatz TE2 (PS4 mode) and Qanba Q4RAF (PS3 mode):

I have no noticeable input delay.
I tried to press buttons at the same time. I know it’s not a proper way to test input lag, but if there was high input lag, I wouldn’t have so many trades.

My Qanba Q2 Glow is working, but for some reason square is mapped to circle, circle is mapped to square, R1 is mapped to L1, and R2 is mapped to L2. Anyone know why? This was the first stick LZ tested so I’m surprised the buttons are weird.

So you do need a ps4 controller per stick

Yep, the thing is, according to the guy who developed the driver, theres no reason why we should need a ds 4 to be connected, and theres no reason for there to be lag. Capcom just didnt follow guidelines.

“Why did SFV implement the LZ controller driver this way? There’s no reason to require a DS4. PS4 SG doesn’t! …”

"We provide instructions for how to implement it without lag, and advice for doing it without a DS4 required. I wrote 'em! "

So its safe to say Capcom messed up. Hopefully they just had to rush it and theyll do some more work on it for the next patch.

On my Saturn pad only the buttons work, dpad doesn’t.

Well… My Mayflash PC042 isn’t working either on PS4. I’ve been waiting for it to conect for about 20 minutes.

yea my friend just called me and said he had the same problem with his saturn pads, also tried a pelican convertor with a ps2 saturn pad and same thing… How the fuck does this game have so many problems with a controller after being in development for so long? lol

I have a TES stick almost never authenticates and if does stops working about 3 seconds after…

I have an old custom PS2 stick with a ps3 converter and it doesn’t work. I also tried a plain dual shock 3 and that doesn’t work either. Anyone have some suggestions? Would a ps2 to ps4 adapter solve my problem or are they just going to block support completely?

i’ve been trying to connect my Qanba Q4 all night without success.
when i hit the legacy option and plug in my stick, nothing happens. all 4 lights of my Q4 are blinking.
i press “home” on the stick and a message pops out saying that it does NOT support PS3 Wireless controllers, which I don’t understand since both are physically connected to the Ps4.

any suggestions? ideas?
