Xbox360 Controls?

[beelzebulba]

I would love to play this game, but I can not figure out how to set it up so I can play/ interact with menus with my xbox 360 controller. Can anyone help me please?

X360ce [www.x360ce.com] is what I used to get the game to read my controller.

GotR mod would help

Thanks for the response. EDIT: I already have GotR and it did not make it better, I still need to use keys and my buttons are all mixed up. I guess maybe my controller is messed up, I can tell what some buttons map to keys (A button is Spacebar). I downloaded the program, is that what it would fix?

The program will not only allow the game to read the controller. It will also enable two options in game to help make it easier to setup the controls. The first option enabled is the control scheme options for the controller. This feature will allow you to change between the control layouts to one that feels right for you. The second option enables the gamepad controls setup, and will allow you to rebind the buttons in game. However it will list the buttons as pad button number.

Note without GotR the buttons will display as generic number buttons. Kind of like the ones found on older logitech brand controller. However with GotR it will allow you to change the button display to look like the ones on the xbox 360.

To make it easier I will give a list of the pad button numbers, and the xbox 360 equivalent buttons. This way you can rebind the buttons in game, and know what buttons you picked.

1 = X
2 = A
3 = B
4 = Y
5 = LB
6 = RB
7 = LT
8 = RT
9 = Back
10 = Start
11 = Pressing L Analog
12 = Pressing R Analog

Gentlemen of the Row does not install controller support by default... build a new GotR mod and pay attention to the option for controllers... :D

I use a cord xbox360 controller and all I do is plug it into my PC and it's ready to be used.

My xbox 360 controller is wired and worked the first time I tried it, my problem is more that I couldn't find any way to remap the controler to work for me. My buttons were set to weird keys (A=Spacebar for some reason) and that program I tried didnt clear anything up either. I cant use the controller and keyboard at the same time, but it seems like you need to for this game. Oh well. Thanks for the replies, Im probably just gonna buy the game on xbox360

Steam also has this built in now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EFM9lWbfpQ4

(Video is from when it was in beta but now is included in non-beta Steam.)

For people new to using Steam's built in Controller configurer:

1. In Steam Desktop go in settings and click In-Game and tick Use the Big Picture Overlay when using a Steam Controller from the Desktop. Then click OK.

2. Go into Big Picture Mode. Click the controller icon on the top right on Steam Desktop.

3. Click the Gear. Make sure Controller/s are on.

Optionally goto Interface and turn down ambient and navigation sounds.

4. Goto Controller Settings. Tick the Controller types you own (PS4/Xbox/Generic). Then restart Steam

Personal preference but untick Guide Button Focuses Steam if you don't want that function.

Optionally setup Base Configurations like Desktop Configuration if you want to use the Controller as a Mouse in Desktop. Chord if you need Mouse function for certain menus / Media Functions. While holding down the Controller logo button. Cool stuff.

5.Make sure Controller is on. Three ways to mess with your Controller settings.

Either right click the game in Desktop mode and select Edit Steam Controller Configuration.

Or go into Big Picture and Select the game, manage game and Controller Configuration.

You can also do this in game by pressing the logo button on your Controller too. Which opens the Steam Overlay. If you need to do any further tweaking.

Hope this was useful.

Thanks! turns out all I needed was to edit steam controller config to fix my issues. Ive got it mapped out pretty well now.

Cool!

I'm working on some new video guides to better help since the pinned guide is kinda a glob of text so I will be sure to do a video on controls too.

Nothing worked for me.
