Mapping Xbox Controller buttons

umboma · 21 Apr 2013 at 10:15

Hello all,

I use a Xbox contoller for most of my PC games,
Certain games require me to press two button's at once or withing a very short time of each other. So I was wondering if there is some software I can use that will allow me to combine two buttons into one?

Xpadder or Pinnacle Game Profiler can probably do this, not sure though.

XPadder is great! Take your time

Please don't say you play FPS games with a controller? Pfft

Yeah I do, I'm ashamed of it tho, I hide the controller when people are around

to be fair, it hurts my palms/wrists after a while using keyboard and mouse.

As long as you're not trying to play online with a pad who cares

There are plenty of FPS games (mainly Xbox games) that work just as well, if not better, with the controller. Obviously I wouldn't use it for competitive online play, but otherwise, why does it matter?

And yes, XPadder is great

My son plays online with a pad and finishes in the top 3 of any game he plays.

These days I play all cross-platform FPS with a controller. Works fine for me.

The only annoying thing is that sometimes games will automatically turn on aim-assist mode for controller users. Which I hate.

obviously not in games where you need skill or fast movement.

cs or cod for eg minus scores every round .

I use xpadder, its pretty good.

Controllers are usually better for single player games, aircraft/vehicle controls. I always use an xbox controller on ARMA 2 online and it doesn't negatively affect my performace.
