3. Extract the archive (RAR) to desktop (any location works). Are you having trouble opening the file? Download Winrar below.
32 bit – http://www.win-rar.com/index.php?id=postdownload&dl;=/rar/wrar411.exe
64 bit – http://www.win-rar.com/index.php?id=postdownload&dl;=/rar/winrar-x64-411.exe

4. Run setup.exe you just extracted and install the program.

5. There should now be a program on your desktop called “DS3 Tool”, open it. If you don’t see this, verify that you have installed the program by going to C:Program FilesMotioninJoy

6. Now with the program open, click on “Driver Manager” at the top.

7. Under “Hardware Location” your PS3 controller should appear, just click “Install all” in the middle. You know it’s done installing when you see “SUCCESS:Install completed” in green letters. (During installation, it will ask you if you you’re sure you want to install the driver. Click yes.)

8. With DS3 Tool still open, click on “Profiles” at the top, right next to “Driver Manager”.

9. Under “connected game controller(s)” it should say “1.Dualshock 3/sixaxis (USB)”. If so, click on “Custom”, then click on the blue “==>Create”.

10. Download my TERA PS3 controller profile and save it to your desktop.

13. Congratulations, go test your controller in game.
