Dreamcast PS3 controller configuration error

[ishim7924]

Hey, what's up guys, i recently updated recalbox to v17.11.02, and installed Dreamcast emulator on my recalbox, but it started to have some problems. The emulator works fine, but it has a problem with the analog left stick of my gamepad. I have two PS3 dualshock 3 controllers, and the thing is that, when you move to left or up, it goes to the opposite side. I tried changing the gamepad mapping configuration file on reicast, but the problem still remains. Does anyone know how to fix it?

I'm also having this problem with Wii U Pro controllers and the Dreamcast emulator. The D-pad works fine, but the left analog stick is reversed. Does anyone else have a suggestion? Thanks!

I tried to use my 8Bitdo NES30 Pro Controller to see if the same error remains. funny fact, there is no problem with the NES30 Pro, it works perfectly

Thanks for the info. I did a little more testing and found out that the controls work perfectly if I don't press the analog stick all the way to the edge. As soon as I push the analog stick more than 80% to the edge in any direction, it makes me go the opposite direction on the screen. Is there a way to fix this...maybe by setting the sensitivity or dead zone?

Thanks for that update on your controller. So the problem includes PS3 controllers and Wii U Pro controllers...and only with the Dreamcast emulator. I'm going to pull out an old Saitek controller and hopefully try it out tomorrow. Crazy Taxi & Soul Calibur can be played with the D pad, but Sonic Adventure requires the analog stick.

I had an interesting find today. I recently bought a Nexilux Game Genie Controller adapter from Amazon for $20, to use my Wii U Pro controller on my PC. Well, I decided to try it with Recalbox. When I connect my Wii U Pro controller to Recalbox through the Nexilux adapter, the analog stick works perfectly! I didn't have a chance to try it with a PS3 controller yet.

in some dreamcast games there are still problems with analog UP

@xtreemsurf
At me if more than 30% you will press that not correctly works
