Title: Getting XBox 360 controller to work with FS2, Open, FSPort, etc.
Post by: BigDamnHero on December 18, 2008, 06:41:26 pm

Hey all, I've got a 360 wired controller that I like to use on PC games like FS2. I was wondering if anyone knew a way to get the Right analog stick working. I've tried to get it to work but when in-game it doesn't seem to work. In the config I move it one way and it seems to recognize as axis rZ or some such but no such luck when actually in game. I'd like to use it as my banking control so that would free up my 2 shoulder buttons for other controls like maybe targeting or something.

So, if anyone could point me towards drivers that turn the directions into buttons or some other solution, that'd be great :)

Thanks in advance!

eargh, arent there some opensource projects out there covering just what you might need? the thing just needs remapping as a whole.

go over on sourceforge, or, http://letmegooglethatforyou.com/
