Hey guys, this is my first post, so I hope I don't break any of the rules. I am searching for days now, for a solution to this problem. It's about Fatal Frame (or Project Zero, as Europe knows it) AND Siren (from the Forbidden Siren Series). As you can see, I like my japanese horror. 
Problem is, neither one of the games recognizes any form of controlls. I first tried Project Zero, because I am from europe, but even though lilpad shows the game pad, none of the controlls work ingame. My Gamepad is a noname ps3 controller and normally I would assume the gamepad to be the problem but when I go to "Test Device" in lilypad all of the commands are shown in a correct manner, just ingame nothing happens.
I then tried an US-Version, only difference was that now I wasn't stuck at the language screen, because fatal frame has none, I was stuck at "press any button to continue". Keyboard and mouse also don't work.
So I thought the problem was the game, maybe just try another japanese horror extravaganza, and Siren is actually from the silent hill dudes.
But it's the same. The game starts just fine, I just can't press any button.
I saw someone in a forum fix it via code but it was an old post, so I couldn't find the file any more.
I always loved emulation for making old games immortal. Fatal Frame and Siren are old and it's really hard to get physical copies for ps2, especially if you don't want to sell your house.
You know, the troubleshooting limbo. The emptiness, you feel after days of trial and error without any progress. That's the place from where I'm writing this.
"Everyday I stare up at the cracks
In the ceiling and all I can think
about is how unfair it all is.... "
Thank you in advance,
Even if you tell me now, the games are completely unplayable and I should give up, you would've helped me
Here's data in case it's useful.
