Important
There are two versions of plugins: vixen.skprx
and vixen_ds3.skprx
. The second supports wired controllers similar to the DualShock 3.
There are a few considerations to keep in mind if you choose to install and use the plugin vixen_ds3.skprx
.
- You need to make sure it’s the first plugin under
*KERNEL
. - It will lose the ability to wirelessly pair DualShock 3 controllers on PlayStation TV. Then, if you need to, temporarily comment out the plugin.
- DS3 support is currently very unstable.

FAQs
Question: Does it support joycon, Xbox One S, insert another wireless controller here ?
Answer: No. It only supports wired USB controllers . Yes, Xbox 360 is also wired (because you need the receiver) For wireless (bluetooth) use ds34vita , VitaControl or MiniVitaTV instead .
Question: Can I connect my Xbox 360 pad via charge’n’play?
Answer: No. Because it’s more charge than play. Does not support data. You need a wireless receiver.
Question: Do you support entering controller name here?
Answer: It currently supports many x-input devices and wired ds3 (or compatible with ds3). See here If your device isn’t in that list (or doesn’t show up as pad ds3 or xbox360), see this list if it’s in that list, I can add support. If not, then most likely I can’t do without such a device.
Question: Can I install it together with another input plug-in?
Answer: Generally not recommended. Most input plugins (ds34vita/vitacontrol) hook the same functions, conflicts will surely arise.
