How do I use my Xbox One controller to play Left for Dead 2 on a 64 bit Windows

[Smoodler]

I just have purchased left for dead 2 and I am wondering how to use my xbox one controller to play it. I am really hoping to record and play this on my YouTube channel. Please help me :)

Use Xpadder. I use it and can use my Xbox 360 controller on any game. I have 2000 hours on L4D2 with this setup.

You don't need to bother with xpadder, unless you want to be able to customise the controls outside of the game, which is useful for some other games. This also helps if a game running a program like Unity NEEDS to recognize exactly what controller it is, making the xbox one controller unable to use unless the dev sets it up.

This game doesn't have what you call auto-aim, I suggest you stick with a KB/M.

Another good point. I NEVER see controller players contribute in - game. It ends up that the person using a controller gets carried. I should have saved some screenshots of controller users. I even had 1 game where the controller user:
1) Used the most med kits.
2) Took the most damage.
3) Did NOT even get a single special infected kill.
4) Kill the LEAST amount of common infected.

I don't mind people using controllers. It's just that they do not perform as well.

Well you might not mind but many people (myself included) do. Like you said, they don't perform well and are at a disadvantage to a Mouse & Keyboard player, nor would I really want to have to feel like I am obligated to 'carry' someone who can't hack it. That's why there is no cross-platform play between consoles and PC for a game of this type. It just wouldn't go over well.

You dont need to add/change anything...just connect your controller and enable gamepad in keyboard/mouse controls

Figured it ot guys. Thanks for all the help. Downloaded the 86x and 64x Driver for the Xbox one controller. Guess they each work for different games. Wierd because I have a 64 bit operating system and I already had the 64 bit Driver.

Not the answer you want but switch to keyboard and mouse.

You'l thank yourself later.

You are right. He is not asking what YOU prefer. He is asking how to make his gamepad work. EVERY time gamepad is mentioned in any gaming forum, some idiot makes a comment like this.
Maybe you should consider he doesn't want to play the game like you play. Maybe he understands the pros and cons of both controlling methods. Maybe he migrated from a console to PC. Idiot.

I couldnt have approached it in a nicer way but thanks for that angsty little block of text made me crack a smile. Have fun getting rolled by baddies while you use an inferior control system OP. Should just break the chain now and not continue to hold yourself back.
