[dev1097] Newly Added Control Config.

[oliveira]

These don't work because the Windows driver treats them as a single analog axis (they are meant to be used with DRIVING games as GAS/BRAKE pedals...) and FFXI expects digital buttons for the macro buttons. I suggest you use the BACK and START buttons for these functions.

Or you can install a 3rd party driver for the XBOX360 controller and that driver has the option of making LT and RT work as DIGITAL buttons. Good luck

Agree 100% with this thread.

That said, for now you can use XBCD to get 'em working with FFXI. I'm sure there is another as well.

I have issues with xbcd not working properly...

Or FFXI can just add support for Microsoft's xinput.dll API which is the official means of interfacing with 360 controllers, and it bypasses the stuff the Control Panel has for the controller.

Actually, that's how the XBOX360 version works, no ?

It's up to the devs, then... But you can still use an high end Logitech pad which is 1000 times better than a XBOX360 pad...

there was a time I would have agreed with you but the fact the logitech controllers that are better than theXBOX360 pad come at a considerably higher cost and do not take as much of a beating as the XBOX360 pad does have changed that opinion considerably, for me its xbox360 wireless pad, logitech wireless trackball mouse and keyboard, logitech can keep their controllers

for XI I use a DirectX driver from a Japanese dev that windows 7 sees as signed and for almost everything else the default MS driver
