hi ! i have a ps3 ultra slim and my madcatz arcade stick round 1 is not working, does anybody of you have this problem ? thanks lol
What games you tried with this?
ssf4 ae 2012
Try the stick on your PC, open up the Devices and Printer menu,
right click Game Controllers,
click on Game Controller Settings
highlight your Game controller (for you your Mad Catz stick) and click the properties button
Test out your stick in the Game controller apllet
it works on ps3 slim but not on the ps3 ultra slim, also works in pc
What’s the consoles Firmware version?
Round 1 TE?
Oh god, he might be in trouble no matter how you look at it!
I’ll check in the near future with my Round 1 TE (after I get a new control lever for it; hopefully later this week!)… But I don’t recall it ever acting screwy (SO FAR… they seem to go bad after a while) with my 60-GB PS3.
I really don’t think firmware revision should have disabled a functional PCB.
I think Toodles is the only guy that ever managed to produce a relatively bug-free third party PS3 PCB. Nobody else’s PCB seems to be as consistent as the Cthulu. They’re all over the place reliability and compatibility-wise as far as hardware support is concerned. The Cthulu (or the MC Cthulu is you have multiple retro-systems) is the replacement PCB to get for PS3 compatibility; I also think it’s a better buy for Mac/PC MAME compatibility/emu’s in general. Very reliable, highly supported piece of hardware.
Only other thing I can think of is try plugging the joystick in a different USB port. Shouldn’t matter whether the PS3 is powered up or not when you plug it in. Of course, the revised PS3’s only have two USB ports now, don’t they? I don’t really know — I soldier on with a launch day model. The only reason my PS3 still works is because of the external cooling fan unit I bought for it…
**** Speaking of which, Darksakul, I think you or somebody else mentioned modding their 60-GB PS3 to run cooler without an external fan unit. I understood the part about changing heat sink grease on the CPU/core but which PC fan did you buy to improve air circulation/cooling for the unit?
I just had both my PS3 te’s stop working correctly on my Slim (not the new ultra slim). The home buttons work just fine when in the menu areas, but once i boot up any fighting game (SSF4, 3S, Marval, ect) the home button and sometimes the start button won’t work either.
Why you posting the same issue in multiple (unrelated) threads?
hardly unrelated. Having the same issue withMadcatz Te’s not working on ps3s
Don’t post in other peoples threads just because you have the same issue unless you have a solution. If you don’t have a solution, then it’s a bit disrespectful to the OP.
