Plus, if you’re already used to a Playstation 3 controller (the $40 Dual Shock 3), using anything different can be confusing. Gaming on the Mac can be a rewarding experience, but there aren’t a great deal of Mac game controllers available (especially that you know you can rely on). There are 4 different methods to connect a controller with Native: Works wirelessly with Bluetooth or proprietary protocol (like the Steam Controller).

![]() Controllers For Steam Mac Via Bluetooth![]() I hope you enjoy this tip – I certainly plan to do some PlayStation-style Mac gaming this weekend! Let us know in the comments if you find any especially great games that support a Bluetooth game pad!If you need a controller, the DualShock 3 really is an excellent one, and is available on Amazon for around $40.For more helpful tips, check out our full collection of tutorials by visiting our How-To category!* Update (): After receiving numerous requests and comments about this not working, I’ve looked into the matter once more. The above screenshot actually came from my Mac. Then select “Add To Favorites” and then “Update Services” from the little gear icon menu.I have tried this myself, and can verify that it works. Android driver for macIf USBOverdrive had a function that used analog signals. So that’s not too surprising that the behavior exists. The above image demonstrates some of the differences in the Mavericks Bluetooth settings.Update (): You can also use the DualShock 4 PlayStation 4 controller to play games on your Mac – click this link for details!I think utilities like USBOverdrive simply mask analog buttons (if they even worked as analog buttons in the first place) with keyboard keys and those are usually on/off digital functions (mouse clicks, key presses, launching applications, etc). If using OS X 10.8.x, you NEED to add the controller to your “Favorites,” as specified in the above instructions, in order for it to work.My co-editor Chris Hauk has also taken it upon himself to test the process, and was able to successfully use the PS3 controller to play LEGO Batman under OS X 10.8.5.As an aside, the entire process seems to go much smoother, and work much more reliably, using OS X Mavericks. Utilities like USB Overdrive or Gamepad companion will never give you analog functions for anything other than the mouse which is inherently analog apart from the buttons of course.The same thing with the type of button functions games support. You can’t squeeze something out of nothing. You can’t just take a “digital signal” and convert it to an analog signal. They are digital, on or off and there’s nothing that utilties can do to convert it. I guess a lot of that functionality (analog buttons, analog triggers) is proprietary though and documentation on it is not public.That’s the thing about keyboard functions in general. At least that’s the impression I get from looking at other keyboard emulation utils.But it would be nice if someone looked into implementing some kind of function in these utils to use what’s there. Perhaps the dualshock drivers are only written to support dinput mode. The analog triggers only function in xinput mode. Dinput mode and xinput mode. You’re not missing much by missing analog face button support.What I was meaning by mentioning the logitech was there is two modes that gamepad can be in. On the PC or Mac a game most likely does not support analog function for say… square, circle, cross or triangle unless it was a direct PS3 port and the game originally supported analog function for those buttons in the first place. There are lots of reports of knock off DS3 controllers (and just as many well intentioned not-quite-right “exposés” on YouTube). Most of these tips are useful for genuine Sony PlayStation 3 DualShock 3 controllers. At the game level with the game design and at the driverOS level.Fortunately many games do support full controller functionality at least for some types of pads.A note, and a lightbulb went off just now for me, for anybody who is using a knockoff DS3, you MIGHT be running into problems because of that. The tattiebogle 360 drivers for example map the analog triggers to analog joystick axis and games support that.So, in order for a gamepad or any other peripheral to have full functionality support needs to be there at all levels. Some are saying that if you can see the lights through he casing then that’s a giveaway that the controller is a knockoff, but I have an official “Deep Red” controller bought from Amazon, bought new from Amazon not a third party, and I can see the lights through the casing so that isn’t one of the signs, and it works fine as expected.Now, “might” was in caps for a reason. And the casting of the case may be off. It seems that on some a French word is misspelled, bisected into two words, instead of a single two or three syllable word, rendering the word meaningless. I’ve heard they work fine as a USB controllers though.I am currently using mavericks and have connected my ps3 controller a couple of timesIf I see the steps above I would be kind of worried to have to put a paperclip in my controllerI so happen to know a much easier way to connect the controller to a mac(book)Without having to stick a paperclip in it i think this also works on snow leopardAll you need is the usb cable that comes with the controller and of course the controller itself.Step 1: make sure bluetooth is switched on on your mac(book)Step 2: connect your controller to your mac(book) using the cable(the controller is now connected with the cable and will work with controller supporting games if you want to use your controller wireless continue with step 4Step 4: unplug the cable from the controller and your mac(book)If you look at the bluetooth menu (in the menubar at the top of your screen) you will see PLAYSTATION(R)3 ControllerIf you want to break the connection just go to the bluetooth menu and select Disconnect at PLAYSTATION(R)3 ControllerIf you want to use it again just press the PS button and instead of booting your ps3 it will connect to your mac(book) againIf you want to connect it to the ps3 again you just have to connect your controller with ps3 with the cable and press the PS button a few timesI hope this way too long message useful to youПлавно мы подошли к самому приятному разделу не всего толкать выборе букмекерской конторы, только и жизни в целом. The Bluetooth chip in the fake DS3 might be wonky. Just a for instance.Just an idea. Like “Red” or “Cherry” instead of the official “Deep Red” and I’m not sure Yellow or Orange is an official color, I might be wrong on the Yellow though. You MIGHT have a counterfeit DS3 if you got it from ebay and it’s not an official Sony PS3 color (US or Japanese versions).
