How many PS3 controllers supported?

[arne]

Hi, I'm currently running recalbox with 2x ShanWan Ps3 controllers. Does recalbox support 3x and 4x PS3 controllers? Thanks.

@lackyluuk Hi, Thanks I have read that information. Perhaps I was not clear. The ShanWan controllers work very well I know that from my experience. What I don't know is how many PS3 controllers can connect at the same time with Recalbox? 2? 3? 4? ??

PS It was great to see in the Wiki that USB-PSx controller adapters will be supported in 4.1 beta, I can't wait

Merci

@arne the usb psx controller adapters work with recalbox 4.0 too!

@tikiandskull Hi, Thanks but it did not work for me I connected my USB-PS Adaptor (Device Name: PS3/PC Gamepad, Product ID: 0x0523, Vendor ID: 0x2563, Manufacturer: ShanWan) to a PS1 Dualshock controller as a test with Recalbox 4.0.

It did not work. Perhaps this particular adaptor is not supported? Any ideas?

Thanks

@arne i think they are already supported in USB in 4.0. Just set controllers.ps3.enabled=0 in recalbox.conf and it should do the trick

@arne i just use this kind of adapter link text and it work out of the box

@tikiandskull or use the gamecon driver it should support 2 PSX pads on 4.1

@Substring Certainly, I just share my little experience on Recalbox...

@tikiandskull Thanks, I have ordered your suggested adaptor Clearly my current adaptor is not yet supported. I will report back progress.

Merci

@tikiandskull Hi, I received the suggested USB-PSx adaptor today and I've tested it and it works OOB as you said. Thanks for your help
