PS3 Stick Controller suddenly not working anymore on OSX 10.14.5

What happens?

PS3 Stick Controller not working after upgrade OSX 10.14.5 (Mojave)
I have tested the joystick, still works properly on PS3 Console

What should happen?

PS3 Stick Controller can be working properly

What hardware, operating system, and PPSSPP version? On desktop, GPU matters for graphical issues.

Macbook Pro 2015 Earlier
OSX Mojave 10.14.5
PPSSPP v.1.6.3

I can't find PPSSPP 1.8.0 Mac version :(

We just use the SDL gamecontrollerdb, which should be a file in PPSSPP, so it might be that it's being reported to SDL as a different type of controller after the upgrade.

The "dev latest" here is at least a newer version, so might be worth trying:
https://build.ppsspp.org/?page/downloads#osx

It's also possible to compile PPSSPP on macOS, but it requires downloading Xcode from Apple (it's free, but many gigabytes to download.)

Just update about this issue...

I have tried to use PPSSPP 1.8 that compiled before.. and PS3 stick still not working

I have found root cause of this issue. OSX 10.14.5 will interrupt insecure bluetooth connection.
So Fake PS3 Stick will not work anymore after upgrade to 10.14.5. And I have tried using PS3 Stick Original from Sony PS3, and it works.. So I will close this issue

Disables accessories with insecure Bluetooth connections.

OK, that's unfortunate, but thanks for reporting that!
