Enable Force Feedback for Xbox One Controllers (Windows 7/8/8.1 x64 ONLY)

***UPDATE 4/17/2016***

Going forward "Updates" will no longer be posted here at the top. To view updates (including TODAY's) and compatible controllers follow the OneDrive link and view the changelog.
______________________________________________________________________


For those interested in having force feedback, vibration, rumble or whatever one decides to call it, I have modified the existing Japanese force feedback driver for the 360 controller (and other xinput devices) by Masahiko Morii. If you are seeking support for official wired and wireless Xbox 360 controllers go here:

Force Feedback Driver for Xbox 360


1. Download the file.

Updated Force Feedback Driver for Xinput Controller[onedrive.live.com]

2. Run and click Next. (If prompted beforehand, click more info or I understand and run anyway)


3. If previous version is installed, click Remove.


4. Run again and click Complete, then choose install. (if prompted again, choose yes to complete installation)


NOTE: THIS IS SAFE...

This does not overwrite the official Xbox One Controller driver. It simply redirects the force feedback call from DInput to XInput. I have tested this on two of my home computers and it worked on all Directinput reliant games.


TROUBLESHOOTING:

1. DOUBLE CHECK that "Force Feedback Driver for Xinput" is removed in Add or Remove Programs, restart PC, then try again.

2. If you intend to use 360 controllers alongside an Xbox One controller you may have to have said 360 controller(s) turned on during installation.

3. x360ce may conflict with the force feedback of controllers (remove from game directory if this is the case) and try again.

4. From my understanding of this driver, Xbox 360 racing wheels DO NOT WORK. That is to say they will not vibrate or rumble.

Is there an update for the Razer Sabertooth ?

It's amazing to see this project is continued, thank you very much! Do you think possible to add the Thrustmaster GPX LightBack as well? Hardware IDs: "HID\VID_24C6&PID_5B02&IG_01", "HID_DEVICE_SYSTEM_GAME", "HID_DEVICE_UP:0001_U:0005", "HID_DEVICE"

I DON'T have either of these controllers and therefore cannot test them. Here is an updated download link that (hopefully) will add compatibility to these controllers. The sooner one can get back to me the sooner I'll just update the MAIN link at the top. Since I don't have these controllers, If the update doesn't work I'll only try a few times to get it right as they just might not work no matter what (unlikely, but not impossible).

Remember to click remove FIRST and then proceed with the install. The steps at the top of the page still apply.

-Good luck!

IT WORKS !!!! Thank you so much for your help ! =)

[NUK3 TH3 WHAL35]

Not a problem. Thanks for the confirmation and giving me the HW ID's to further extend compatibility! As soon as I get feedback from another user's controller working, I'll just replace the main link at the top of the page with the updated one.

Thanks very much for adjusting the driver! So far, I tested it with Trackmania (Thrustmaster Lightback), where I felt nothing. What games do you guys test it on?
Do I have to do anything else other than installing the driver and activating Rumble/FFB in the game?

[NUK3 TH3 WHAL35]

No, you shouldn't have to do anything else. Make sure you are removing any prior edition of this driver by running it again and clicking REMOVE. Then re-run the installer and make a COMPLETE install. To be TRULY sure any prior driver is gone make sure "Force Feedback Driver for XInput" is gone from "Add or Remove Programs". Restart and try again choosing COMPLETE install (just to cover your bases). Upon a second look at your Id's, they look fine, but double check and re-confirm the Hardware ID's by going to Device Manager, right-clicking the controller, properties, details tab, and Hardware Id's under property drop box.

It SHOULD look something like this.

USB\VID_XXXX&PID_XXXX

Okay I went through and found an error in the driver for your controller.

Try this...

If it doesn't work, follow the steps in my last response to you to double check the Hardware Id's in device manager.

[spitfire_ch]

Thanks a lot for looking into this and adjusting the driver! Unfortunately, I can't install this version. Trying results in an error message saying something like (translated from German) "This installation package can't be opened. Ask the developer of the application to check, whether this is a valid Windows installer package".

[NUK3 TH3 WHAL35]

Sorry about that. Here you go. If the first one doesn't work try the second.

Good luck.

Yay, you're a genius, it's working! :) Thanks very much!!

[NUK3 TH3 WHAL35]

Great! I'm glad I could help you with it. Now that I've got your controller confirmed to work I'll add it and another users's into the main driver linked at the top of the page.

I'll edit my previous post to remove the links I gave you. In your case, I'd keep whatever link I gave you that worked somewhere safe for further use in case I miscalculate again updating the main link at the top.

Excellent work, now rumble work in Epsxe with xbone gamepad

[NUK3 TH3 WHAL35]

Thanks! That and most input plugins for Project 64 and other emulators as well.

[Buff Beefbroth]

Wow, you're a life saver. This worked perfectly.
