360 Controller on Mac Not working now

[Tim Allen]

Not sure what happened. I have had Left 4 Dead 2 deleted from my computer for a couple of months. I think I installed Mountain Lion during that time and now when trying to use the controller with L4D2, the camera spins quickly in a circle while staring at the ground and I can't do anything. When I turn off gamepad in options, the keyboard controls and camera work fine. I also have boot camp and installed L4D2 on the windows side but the controls seem less intuitive and the default buttons are not how I'm used to. Anyway, I would prefer to play this game on my Mac side with the 360 controller. Any suggestions? Thanks!

i am with the same problem.

from what you are saying it seems as though the thumbstick axises are off, i would guess you would somehow have to recaliberate, which i unfortunately do not know how to do..

Try to open the Console and type "exec 360controller". See if that helps.

Can you use it on other games? Did the controller (thumbsticks) get damaged, etc? You try updating drivers for 360 controller yet?

Thumbsticks are fine. I just used the controller on the PC side of my CPU to play LA Noire. I just updated the tattie boogie driver to most current one: .11 and still having the same problem. I tried to play portal 2 as well just now and when I try to select the controller option in the menu the game crashes. Can't find anything about that online either. I'm ready to resign to playing games on the PC side of my computer, but it would be nice to be able to play them on the Mac side.
