help - x360 pad

Mp4 · 10 Jan 2008 at 17:59

i got my xbox 360 pad today! , BUT i installed the drivers on the disk and i cant get force feedback to work on Flatout 2 :/

dont think feedback works properly with many games on it. Its not really 'force feedback' anyway really, its just a lame rumble

mine shakes harder over 1 side than the other in crysis for some reason, thats the only game its rumbled on.

anyone? (have screenshot of default setup with 360 pad for flatout2?)

cant seem to get XBCD drivers to work either :/

I installed the CD drivers then connected the pad. If you press the X thing in the middle of the pad a little screen pops up. If you click the down-arrow and then click 'Check For Updates' it should download a new update.

I can't say I've tried it in Flatout 2 as I don't have the game but quite a few games I have tried it on work perfectly (Gears Of War / Test Drive Unlimited / Colin McRae Dire).

What did you hate about xpadder? I think it's absolutely brilliant.

I will install it when i get home and get a screen grab up for you mate

Force feedback worked perfect straight out the box for me, although Flatout 2 is a pain as it doesn't let you use the pad in menus.

you sure about TDU? Couldn't get rumble support without usinig XBCD drivers myself.

lo all, its a decent pad but atm flatout 2 is the only game i find it fun on. I've tried to reinstall the game to try and get default settings back .. but still no luck ... and even going to default settings doesnt do anything.
