Looks like a PS3 controller clone!? Try to install ps3controller module. And if it is working please post your controller config files (/opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-joypads).

Having the same issue, works fine wired. And if I press the ps button on any genuine Ps3 controller it pairs fine and works but the clone just flash’s until it stops with no sync and then have to restart the unit to use the controller wired again.

[gizmo98]

There is an qtsixad package with gasia support on github. Default qtsixad does not seem to work with gasia clones.
https://github.com/falkTX/qtsixa

[gizmo98]

Just out of interest. Where can i buy this ps3 controller clone?

[Anonymous]

Thanks for quick response and help.

Please do, still can’t get it to work and not sure how to use the install the above method.

[gizmo98]

You can try this ps3controller module:
https://github.com/gizmo98/RetroPie-Setup/blob/ps3-gasia-hack/scriptmodules/supplementary/ps3controller.sh

Or type…

mkdir test
cd test
git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/gizmo98/RetroPie-Setup.git
cd RetroPie-Setup
sudo ./retropie_setup.sh

…and (re)install ps3controller

[Anonymous]

I just gave that a go but after typing git clone etc. It said cloning into ‘retropie-setup’ then asks for user name and password? Which I do not have ? so it started to work lol

Ok sorted it out but still no go.thanks anyways.

[mrco123]

some news about this gasia ?

[petrockblog]

yes – two posts up.

[gizmo98]

@slayer
My fault. You need to checkout another branch. Please try…

mkdir test
cd test
git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/gizmo98/RetroPie-Setup.git
cd RetroPie-Setup
git pull
git checkout ps3-gasia-hack
sudo ./retropie_setup.sh

Champion,I did all that and didn’t think it worked, when I unplugged the control then pressed the p3 button it flashed all four lights fast and then went to a slower flash and just kept flashing then I tried the controls and they work perfectly,not sure how two controls will go but shouldn’t be too much of an issue hopefully, thanks heaps for the help mate.

[gizmo98]

Good to here it is running! Gasia hack + led support is broken at the moment and i don’t know if it can be fixed.

Even if it can’t that’d fine as long as it works I don’t need the LED lights to tell me what player I am ☺ thanks again for helping us out with this issue.

[mrco123]

hello thank you for the answer ..

but :
OK mkdir test
OK cd test
OK git clone –depth=1 https://github.com/gizmo98/RetroPie-Setup.git
OK cd RetroPie-Setup
OK git pull
OK git checkout ps3-gasia-hack
OK sudo ./retropie_setup.sh

after :
setup / configuration ?
install / pair ps3 ?
install / pair ps3 ?

but nothing !

[Anonymous]

That’s what I did install/pair then it will do its thing and come up with a message saying to connect controller via usb etc etc hit ok, restart and load into ES then disconnect cable and press p3 button wait few seconds and it should be ok, if not go to menu and configure control and it should say 1 gameplay detected then press and hold p3 button ☺

[gizmo98]

Remove configs/driver (no.2) before you install.

[mrco123]

okay and thank you !

OK mkdir test
OK cd test
OK git clone –depth=1 https://github.com/gizmo98/RetroPie-Setup.git
OK cd RetroPie-Setup
OK git pull
OK git checkout ps3-gasia-hack
OK sudo ./retropie_setup.sh

after :
setup / configuration

[Anonymous]

When in ES and you disconnect the usb and press the p3 button what do the lights do on the controller?

[mrco123]

Hello !

the 4 lights flash

[Anonymous]

I had that happen too,but it was a fast flash for a few seconds then it slowed down, once that happened I was able to configure input in ES menu as it detects a new controller.

[mrco123]

Hi !!!

okayyyy !!
it run !
I have doing :
F4
i disconnect the usb cable
sixad stop
sixad start
it say me ” push on ps3 button ” the 4 led flash
” connected to ps3 ……… ” the first led is on
emulationstation
ans it’is okay …
But if i reboot my Pi, the bluetooth connection is down …

[mrco123]

ok it’s good !
I modified etc/rc.local
i added
hciconfig hci0 piscan
before
exit0
and it’is good !

[gizmo98]

@mrco123
Could you test something for me? Remove your rc.local changes. Update RetroPie-Setup and reinstall PS3 controller driver with “clone support”.

[mrco123]

yes …

with : sudo ./retropie_setup.sh in
~/test/RetroPie-Setup/

?

[mrco123]

i removed my rc.local changes
i updated retropie-setup in /test/retropie_setup/
i have run sudo ./retropie-setup in /test/retropie_setup/
but i have not see “clone support” !!!

but now, if i reboot , the controller is ok !

[gizmo98]

Thanks! The next sd card image will have a install option for clones.

[mrco123]

another probleme ! …

when i reboot , the controller is ok , but, if i pause the game for 20mn ….
the controller don’t run ! …. The 4 led flash but nothing …

[gizmo98]

Sorry i don’t know how to solve this problem at the moment. If you have only one controller enable safety.timeout: “/var/lib/sixad/profiles/default” “enable_safety_timeout 1”

[mrco123]

ah .. ok !
thank you !

I have re-tested yesterday and it’s ok !!! work fine !!!
