stick for pc?

[[NIUE] BIRRY WONG]

Yeah, there ARE a lot of bad habits you can get into when learning a stick, I always get a bit worried when I see people taking their hands off the stick when doing fireballs and especially charge moves. Personally I still find dashing, particularly to the left, easier on pad, but otherwise stick is the way imo

Oh god, those people that almost look like theyre throwing the fireball themselves IRL? I tend to let go of the stick to return it to neutral, but my hand stays on it. I cringe when i see people who end their fireball with their hand 2 feet up in the  air. >_>

Reminds me of a dude i saw playing marvel who did this. (Ryu/ken/akuma) He obviously new basic stuff, but not only did he significantly move his hand from the stick after a motion, but 'mashing' in his mind was taking his palm, and smashing up and down on all the buttons.

And weazzy is right on the money. Its easier with what youre comfortable with. But once you have learned a stick, it will make things a lot easier in the long run. Transitioning between the two can be a pain, but once you learn how to use a stick you wont regret it.

Losing HK, ouch. Whenever I play on pad I swap the middles with the heavies. So I can focus with RB+RT which is fine. Main problem is xbox d-pads suck and my left hand sucks on LT/LB. And I can't raging demon very fast on pad so I instantly turn to stick which I've grown up with lol.

Hey guys, I need your help,

I recently bought a PS3 TE Fightstick for my PS3. However, I have SF4 on my PC and have tried to get it to work on it, but no luck. My PC can see the stick but the buttons are not registering. Any help would be much appreciated. Have looked and tried SRK.com for solutions, but none of them have helped so far

My System:

Intel i7 860 CPU
MSI GD-65 P55 motherboard
1 TB HDD
ATI Radeon 4870X2
4GB DDR3 RAM
Windows 7 64-bit O

Youre shit out of luck sorry Bro.

The PS3 version of the fight sticks dont work on certain usb chipsets.  Youre only option is to get an addon pci usb card, and make sure it is VIA  brand.  THeyre like 20 bucks at most and can be picked up at youre local PC retailer, and possibly Dick smiths.

That's what I did bro. I bought me a VIA chipset add on PCI card and installed it in my PC. The Fightstick then does not register at all. Just get an error message saying 'USB device not recognized' wonder what's wrong...

MSI MB are not really my liking..I haven't had any issues with Assus/ Gigabyte boards so far.
Plus with teh spec you got on your PC... I am sure you can get a better MB.

I know people whose HORIs won't work on gigabyte mobos, but a TE does...

Lol that rig is pretty beast.

I wouldn't be surprised if Windows 7 64 bit was doing some freaky shit with drivers... If possible, I'd try reverting to 32 bit Windows 7 and trying that... yeah, that may be a bit of a drag, but I wouldn't be surprised if that's what the issue was

Well, I know it is possible for a PS3 TE to work on win7 64bit, but it could still be your mobo/drivers.

I have an Intel P55 mobo and Win7 64bit, mine worked straight away, no having to install drivers or anything. I just plugged in the TE it detected it as a gamepad and that was it, sorted.

What kind of motherboard is yours dude? I'm kinda having second thoughts on replacing mine. Really want this stick to work on my pc, otherwise I'm gonna have to wait a few more days till SSF4 comes out on PS3.

Let me check this weekend when I'm home and I'll let you know.
