Guest RET.Maj.Skyler=US= Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 Ok i just got a Windows Wireless Xbox 360 controller or my PC. How do i get it actually setup to use it in-game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MAJ.Kaossilator=US= Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 [URL='http://support.microsoft.com/kb/906347']This [/URL] might be of some use here, sir. Doing some reading it looks like some people are having trouble mapping functions to the controller, but in theory... should be fine. If you don't mind my asking, is this for flying or on the ground? ***Edit I suppose if BC2 doesn't recognize it straight away, sir, you could always use [URL='http://www.xpadder.com/']Xpadder[/URL]. I've never messed with it myself, and I've heard it's a bit of a pain to set up, but might do the trick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest MAJ.Kaossilator=US= Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 [URL='http://www.beingmanan.com/wp/2009/08/use-the-xbox-360-controller-to-control-your-pc/']This[/URL] looks like a pretty decent walkthrough on setting up Xpadder. A bit convoluted, but seems do-able. As far as I can tell, Xpadder works directly with Windows rather than the game by intercepting signals from the 360 controller and interpreting/executing them however you set it up in the app. Unless I'm mistaken in that, you shouldn't have to do anything other than keep the same controls as-is in-game. **Disclaimer: Again, though, I've never messed with it.

Guest Ret.Maj.Xander=US= Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 I've had mixed issues with 360 controllers and my PC. I've only used ones that connect over USB, no bluetooth. They work really well with sports games, I used to play Madden 09 with a 360 controller connected to my pc. I tried it for CoD4 and it didn't work so well. I think some games have the support built in but not all. I'm sure that the program RT.Kao is talking about would work or some other one like it. There shouldn't be a problem mapping the controller to the keys u use in BC2 (or whatever you're playing) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
