How to Use Dirt 3 PC Controllers

If you're looking for ways to enhance your racing experience on Dirt 3 on PC, consider investing in an official controller specifically designed for the game.

Here are some steps to follow:

1. Connect Your Controller: First things first - make sure that your new controller is properly connected to your computer via USB or another suitable connection method (depending on what type of port it has). If everything seems correct but nothing happens when you press any buttons, try unplugging and replugging both ends just in case.

2. Configure Controls In Game Options: Once inside Dirt 3 itself go up through the main menu until you reach 'Options' then click on 'Controls'. Here you'll see a list of all available controllers; select yours from this dropdown menu before proceeding further down into more advanced settings like axis sensitivity etcetera depending upon personal preference.

3. Mapping Controller Buttons: Now that we've got our controller recognized by the game, it's time to map its buttons and sticks correctly so they correspond with their in-game counterparts.

- Joystick (Gas Pedal): Map this button to your left stick on Windows or right analog stick on Macs/Steam OS.

4. Testing Your Setup: Before diving into a proper race session, give your newly mapped controls a quick test drive around the first few tracks using practice mode if available. This will help ensure everything feels just right without losing any progress during actual races later down line when competing against real opponents online or offline depending on how you prefer playing dirt 3.

5. Customizing Your Experience: Don't be afraid to experiment with different controller settings until you find the perfect balance of speed and control that suits your driving style best - after all, gaming is about having fun!
