Title: Those of you with Xbox360/ PS3 controllers.
Post by: VMNT on January 06, 2008, 08:14:04 pm: Is the PS3 controller fully compatible with SA-MP?

Because, I have received my 360 controller yesterday, to find out if it is NOT fully compatible with GTA.

I cannot use the right joystick or the trigger shoulder buttons.

Can anyone give some info on this?

Do the PS3 controllers have the same problem?

Thanks, Dave

Yeah, I got the pinnacle game profiler, but I can't get it to work with SA-MP for some reason and though it is a great programme, I can't get the trigger buttons to work even on single player...

So, should I just get a PS2/PS3 controller?

:conf:

Why? :)

Because it is much better for driving and shooting.

Provided you get a compatible controller... :mad:

for driving, I would agree, for shooting, I will not...

aiming with controller it's much more difficult than with a mouse.

XP,

It doesn't matter what OS I have, I've read up on it enough to find out that Rockstar north has shitty gamepad compatibility...

I always personally found a keyboard better for Driving. The Controller was nice for flying, though. :)
