play with controler?

[ZombiDev]

im not a big fan of keybord controling so i tried pluging in a xbox 360 controler and well, nothing happened.
is there anyway i can play SW with a controler, and if there is, what did i do wrong?

no there is not... other than Xpadder which basically binds keys to your controler.

whats Xpadder?

Its a emulator that allows you to assign Mouse & Keyboard functions to your controller.

Shadow Warrior = 1997
Xbox 360 = 2005

I think I'm detecting a reason why "nothing happened".

Xpadder free edition:

It's hardly any different from the newer "pay to use" version, so I'd just use this one. Note that to get it to run on Win 7 or 8, set compatibility mode for it to Windows Vista iirc.

Are you making a joke, or legitimately don't know how a computer and the internet work? I can't tell.

No problem man. It can take a few minutes to get it going, there should be some info on the net if you get stuck, otherwise it works good in old games without controller support.
