Current Version: v3

What is this?

New textures for the official PS3 controller. Meant for use with MotionJoy Xbox 360 Controller Emulator mode, makes all the buttons in game appear with PS3 controller button icons instead of Xbox ones.

Why get it?

These textures beat the confusion from the default in-game Xbox button icons. Those are replaced by the ones in this mod. Best used when playing with a PS3 controller using MotionJoy.

Requirements

-Requires DS fix installed. Find it here: http://darksouls.nexusmods.com/mods/19

-IMPORTANT! In DSfix.ini set enableTextureOverride value to 1 otherwise the textures won't work!

-IMPORTANT! TURN OFF ANTI-ALIASING IN-GAME after installing DSFix!

-To install, first extract chosen zip file anywhere, and put PNG file to folder "/DATA/dsfix/tex_override" inside your dark souls game directory. Or just use the Nexus Mod Manager.

-Using MotionJoy Xbox 360 Emulator mode HIGHLY RECOMMENDED as the icon displaying is built around that setup.

The bottom half of this texture (the light brown icons with the crystal/magic stuff) are from an altered version of (DS HD Interface Icons by Mordhar) and Xbox 360 HD Interface Icons by iwa360. Not sure if they actually do anything, but I left them there because they look cool. I only claim credit for the top half of the texture, containing the custom PS3 icons that I made. If there are any concerns, contact me and I will remove the bottom half f

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Install MotionJoy Xbox 360 first and test your PS3 controller in-game before adding these textures.
  • Try all three styles during actual gameplay — some are more legible than others depending on your HUD.
  • If you see leftover Xbox icons, check that no other UI texture mod is overwriting this one.
