Yep,I just got bluetooth working on my laptop with the latest version.
Upscaled and HQ Chronno Trigger is awesome on my LCD TV.

Yes, these work very well. Used to be you had to "crack" the files to get windows to use them as they were not digitally signed, but their most recent release includes digital signing! Setup for me was a breeze

Best part about a PS3 controller on PC is that all it takes is a standard USB cable, or a general bluetooth receiver.

Has anyone tried the bluetooth mode in conjunction with the 360 controller emulator? If so I would forgo buying a 360 controller.

Yep I've been using this as well. It was a pain to get it working with the first bluetooth receiver I bought but the 2nd one works much better.

Works great for me. All of my games that work with a 360 controller detect it and work just as if it were actually a wireless 360 controller.

FYI, Logitech now has gamepads with the PS3 features (except the tilt). Previously they didn't have analog triggers but now they do

Can't even get the USB mode to work. Regardless of what profile I select the analog sticks never do anything. I've followed their guide and it just doesn't work like it apparently should.

Motionjoy drops inputs depending on the game.. Just letting ya'll know.

I only found out because I tried playing a fighter with it. and dropped some easy combos which worked fine on xbox controller/cthulu/keyboard/

I'll have to give this a shot. Still have some PoP games on Steam to play, and I'd rather use a controller than M+KB

It is kind of funky, most software like this is though.
I just keep clicking on the profile (the third one with joysticks enabled, etc) and sometimes reload the program.
Once you figure out the quirks, it's easier to use.
I gave up on it when I tried using it when this thread was first posted, but then my X360 started acting up so I thought I would try again.

It's definitely flaky. I tried it again doing what I thought was exactly what I did the first time, and now it's working. It's also working via bluetooth well enough. Unfortunately the game I actually planned on using this with (Braid) doesn't support controllers I guess, so it was kind of a waste. Works fine on ZSNES though :p
