      Hi all,

      I'm using a Dualshock 3 wired. I'm familiar with needing to set the correct controller type depending on whether the game accepts digital or analog input. However, like many others I've been wrestling with the bugs which cause the analog sticks not to work on pcsx rearmed.

      To begin with the sticks weren't responding at all, but I searched around and applied the following solutions:

      • Turned off both multitaps.

      • Configured all 5 inputs to analog.

      I'm now getting some response from the sticks while playing Ape Escape, but they're not behaving properly. The sticks only very intermittently do what they're supposed to - movement (which is set to the left stick) is completely janky and the weapon (which is set to the right stick) doesn't trigger much of the time.

      Has anyone run into these issues and if so how did you resolve them?

      Thank you,
      Phil

        @dominodomino P.S I'm using a Raspberry Pi 4 and I'm on the latest version of RetroPie (4.7)

            Please don't bump your topics in short amount of time.
            Have you tried setting the control type to Dualshock - see https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Playstation-1/#the-controller-problem-digital-only-analog ?
