Are you having to repoint to every game "rom" file ?

If you are depending on how many games you have you may be better off just re-importing your games and not have it scrape for metadata or artwork. Or if you are comfortable using the copy / replace all function in notepad you can edit the file locations in the platforms xml file, so in this case it would be the Sony Playstation 2.xml.

Just out of curiosity, what are you using input mapper for ? Forgive me if I missed it somewhere earlier in the thread.

Ahh, unfortunately I have no experience using the PS3 controller. I use an XBox 360 and a wireless Logitech controller.

Yeah good old Notepad++ works great for changing rom paths in the xml files :) I recently moved my collection over to a different drive and used the copt / replace all function to make it nice and fast.

MotionJoy is what I used, but apparently it does a poor job of removing it's self if you uninstall it? I don't have an issue with programs leaving files behind has I use IOBit Uninstaller, along with the IOBit Advanced System Care stuff to help keep my PC cleaned up. So I've seen people complain about it, but it always worked for me. InputMapper, the software I use for the PS4 controller, is adding more controller support like the DS3 eventually, but it's not there right now.

Alternatives to MotionJoy if you can understand the instructions (Just try MotionJoy): http://steamcommunity.com/groups/bigpicture/discussions/1/864976115177997027/
