Hello Guildux, I got the same issue. Do you found a solution ? Thanks'

The blueooth packages are part of the OS (Raspbian) - they can be upgraded if a new version is released by the upstream Raspbian project and can be installed with the apt utility, or just choosing to update your OS packages from RetroPie-Setup when you do an upgrade.

Thanks for your efforts, @psyke83 Unfortunately, the fix suggestion that you provided didn't work in this situation. I have seen people online saying that they have used "alternative ps3 drivers" but not sure what these are or where they are to be found. Any other suggestions?

@Efriim cool will do!

@weaster007 No, I don't mean qtsixa, I mean the sixaxis driver package in the RetroPie Setup script 'sixaxis' : Helper service to install & configure the latest drivers for official and third-party DualShock controllers (ps3controller replacement)

Hi, I'm having this exact same issue with ps3 controller. I went over to other thread to try and figure out own my on, but I'm very new to this and it is very hard to understand how to add the input.cfg. I don't know where to even access that from. can you please help me and give some step by step guide? You said you copy and paste a file? Can you please show me how to do that?

@robmcc83 Sixaxis = no vibration. DS3 = vibration.

@swapfilez Third party pirated images do not receive support on this forum. Go ask VLC.

anyone?

Rewrote the image, and everything was nice and fresh. I can register each controller through the menu prompt but they won't connect or be recognized at all now

@Floob I'm now running retropie 4.2 on pi zero when trying to get my neo geo games to work i used to use pifba on 4.1 and it would work perfectly with my wired ps3 only one player now that I'm using 4.2 pifba games run perfect but my ps3 controller doesn't work right up=start down=select if figure that much not when i change emulator to lr-fbalpha controller works perfect but the games start to lag and not working perfectly i haven't tried bluetooth yet but i figure it will be the same PLEASE HELP BEEN STUCK FOR A WHILE

FIX: https://raspberryblog.de/?p=1870, now works perfect.

I'm using the build in BT. Maybe the BT "Module" on your pi is faulty. At least it doesn't sound normal that both controllers don't work correctly via BT.

@Mihto 3rd party / clone ps3 controller support is limited at best - i would recommend getting another controller tbh (which you have done).

Realised I wasn't setting up the PS3 controller correctly by not using a USB cable for the initial set up. Marking this topic as solved.
