X360ce emulator for Logitech Dual Action gamepad ain't working.
Anyone get this to work yet?

I've run the X360ce emulator from the game directory as instructed on the readme file but I can't get the controller to work in game.

My gamepad does comoe up on the emulator though. I can see the triggers and sticks working fine.

If anyone has any suggestions that would be awesome, otherwise I'll just wait for the ability to invert axis on mouse and/or hopefully this game will support every and any gamepad when it's final.

I've got the same game-controller and have been using x360ce emulator with this game with no problem.

Into the the main State of Decay folder (it should be the same folder that has the StateofDecay.exe file in it), try putting the following 3 files, from the x360ce package;

x360ce.exe
x360ce.ini
xinput1_3.dll

And that should do it. Launch your game, and if you have the x360ce utility configured correctly, you may hear a "ding" noise when the game loads in, and then your game-controller should work (hopefully).

If you wanted to have the same version of x360ce emulator files I'm using, and having it already configured to work with a Logitech Duel Action game-controller, here's a zip of those files for you:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/2ou7rah39hyaxzi/x360ce_pack.zip

Just download, un-zip the package, and you'll find those 3 files (as mentioned in my previous post), and simply place those 3 files within the main "State of Decay" game folder.

If you wanted to test it with your game-controller first, you can run the x360ce.exe file and see if all the buttons, d-pad & thumbsticks seems to work correctly. Then close that, and launch the game and hopefully it should work and see your game-controller as a 360 game-controller (well, at least it's emulated to act as one) and should allow you to play the game via your controller.

Good luck.

Thanks LoneWolfDon !!!!

I realised what I did wrong. I had selected an incompatible preset in the general tab and the controller was coming up 'red' in the tabs menus on the emulator.

Once I selected 'Logitech Cordless RumblePad2', it went green. Obviosuly I don't have that device but the Dual Action gamepad seems to accept it.

I fired the game up and it works! Now I need to set the buttons accordingly throughout the game as I get used to it....

Again, many thanks. I think I had too many versions of the emulator chucked into my SoD.exe directory too so when I saw how you only used 3 files, that pointed me in the right direction ;)

Cool. Good to know that you got it working. Hope you'll enjoy the game (I've been addicted to it since getting it a few days ago. Great game :)

The original controls work pretty well, also i would use the same xbox layout for all my games, cause it will make you get used to the buttun promps for instance when it tells you to press Y youll press button 4 cause your used to it.

button 1 = X
button 2 = A
button 3 = B
button 4 = Y

hope that helps
wishing you a happy zombie killing expirience ^_^

Cheers Gameplay, I believe that's the current setup on my dual action :) I'm of the mind to paint letters on the buttons now hahah.
