what am i doing wrong? 360 controller

what am i doing wrong? i plugged in a 360 controller and restarted the game, but it still doesnt do anything with any controller buttons/sticks etc. windows 8.1 x64.

 

Check to see if your GUID matches the default input map, if it doesn't duplicate it and switch it to your GUID. http://wiki.beamng.com/Playing#Configuring_your_own_controller

 

Microsoft official or 3rd party clone, wired or wireless? Does make a difference.

 

ok, but the axis/axes whatever doesnt show up in my torque3d file. how do i know what to put?

here's what the torque3d file says:

Try using "02A1045E.inputmap.cs" as a base, just look up whatever you're trying to do in there, I have a feeling it'll be the same for yours.

Also place your new inputmap in a new folder called "custom" inside the imputmaps folder, this will keep it from being overwritten when you update the game.

 

Go to your drivers list and select your controller and reinstall. Google it youll see.

Incidentally, I resolved the issue by renaming the existing 360 controller file to match what the game was looking for.

 

Using a wired xbox 360 controller for windows. I tried to follow what the rest of the thread was doing but this stuff if way over my head could anyone help me out?

 

Did you try following the wiki page for it?

 

apparently not all 360 controllers are PnP. the aftermarket ones have different names/identifiers/etc. there's some crap you have to go through to get it to work i dont even remember what i did but it's low level notepad hacking business. hope the next thing they work on is better controller support...

 

yes, according to my windows search, i don't even have a torque3d.log file. again, way over my head by like step 2

I don't even know what that means :c the only notepad scripting i've done is write a simple respawn script for arma 2. so i'm totally lost when it comes to anything more complicated.
