davej Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 I don't believe this is practical, but you can certainly find information on the topic of using the Playstation controller on a pc. http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/45610/how-to-use-your-ps-3-controllers-as-a-joystick-for-your-windows-pc/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gongpex Posted September 23, 2015 Author Share Posted September 23, 2015 allright, my purpose is not looking driver for playstation joystick, but to make own playstation joystick driver, I think I must tell you something : a month ago I bought usb playstation joystick, when I bought it, the driver is available, but when I tried to install it on my windows 8 pc it blocked by windows defender because there is malware on that driver. That's why I think I need to learn how to make own driver. please help me Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davej Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 I don't think this is possible in Java. For Windows you would probably need to write it in C++. https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/hh706187%28v=vs.85%29.aspx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justsomeguy Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 Do you know what the purpose of a driver is? If you want to do that as an exercise that's one thing, but trying to build your own driver with only consumer access to the device isn't going to be all that easy. You're talking about reverse-engineering how the thing works in order to tell the OS what to do. How do you expect to find out how the device works, what signals it sends to the OS? You're not talking about just building a driver, because that would imply that you already know how the device works, like you have the specifications for how it communicates. You don't have that. You're talking about reverse-engineering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
