(This is the documentation for SDL3, which is the current stable version. SDL2 was the previous version!)

SDL_HINT_JOYSTICK_HIDAPI_PS3

A variable controlling whether the HIDAPI driver for PS3 controllers should be used.

Header File

Defined in <SDL3/SDL_hints.h>

Syntax

#define SDL_HINT_JOYSTICK_HIDAPI_PS3 "SDL_JOYSTICK_HIDAPI_PS3"

Remarks

The variable can be set to the following values:

• "0": HIDAPI driver is not used.
• "1": HIDAPI driver is used.

The default is the value of SDL_HINT_JOYSTICK_HIDAPI on macOS, and "0" on other platforms.

For official Sony driver (sixaxis.sys) use SDL_HINT_JOYSTICK_HIDAPI_PS3_SIXAXIS_DRIVER. See https://github.com/ViGEm/DsHidMini for an alternative driver on Windows.

This hint should be set before initializing joysticks and gamepads.

Version

This hint is available since SDL 3.1.3.
