Best program for using 360 controller on PC?
Okay so I've already got my computer to recognise my controller, and for the most part JoyToKey is doing a great job.
However. With JoyToKey, I can map almost every button, and I can hold down a button to change what the other ones do (example, hold LB so the left stick is a mouse instead of WASD, or A B X Y are attacks, hold down RB and A B X Y are menu buttons.) I can't configure my right analogue stick movements or the triggers though, which is a problem, and I need the space. I've then gone on to try Xpadder, which let's me configure every button including the right stick and triggers, but I don't have the much needed functionality of holding down a button to change the other buttons' functions. So, what I'm asking is; Is there a way to configure the right stick and triggers in JoyToKey or, is there a program that lets you configure every button on a 360 controller as well as let me hold down a button to change the others? Just so you know, I need both of these things in one because it's an MMORPG I plan on playing with a controller (no, not WoW.) There are 8 buttons for attacks, then about 8 for different windows, 8 for items, you get the picture. Any help is appreciated. EDIT: Quote:

I use Xpaddler. It basically tricks the computer into thinking your using a keyboard, so its compatible with every game a keyboard is.

I don't really have any advice. If its an mmo though it probably is best to play on a keyboard anyway in my opinion.

Re: Best program for using 360 controller on PC?
Squall: Yeah, you got the idea with the several buttons mapped to one button. In JoyToKey, you can map something like 6 different buttons onto one button, it's really great. It just seems incredibly strange that the triggers and right stick aren't configurable. I mean, how many people use 360 pads for shooters on their PC? You literally couldn't do it without the right stick and triggers.
I know what you mean about using a keyboard, but this particular MMO is new as is pretty much supposed to be a console experience. Its combat is kind of like that in a Tales of _____ game. Anyway, it's Dragonica. It's sidescrolling, so you don't need a camera configured, and a lot of the attacks can be done via shortcuts in the game. ie instead of having to set a regular attack to B, a launching attack to X and a slamming down from air move to Y, you can do those all with B, up-B and down-B. It also makes other shortcuts in the game, for example giving almost every menu an F1 YES / F2 NO system. This means you don't need the mouse to go over to that place and you don't need to configure a left click (though you can, it wastes space.) So yeah, it's designed with using a controller in mind. I can play it with JoyToKey if I sit at my keyboard for opening windows, but if I could do the multiple buttons on one with the triggers and especially the right stick, it's be a breeze. EDIT: Quote:
So basically you didn't read the first post in the thread, meaning your "answer" is invalid and is effectively a +1 post for you.
