This page may require cleanup to meet basic quality standards. The specific problem is: Waiting for code to stabilize. You can help by modifying the article. The discussion page may contain useful suggestions.

Key points

Enables use of DirectInput controllers in games that only support XInput ones.

General information

Official site
GameCompatibilityList.

Installation

  1. Copy x360ce.exe to any folder of your choosing and open it.
  2. Edit the Controller tabs key bindings to your liking. Check the Games Compatibility list and select the correct compatibility mode for your game. Once that's done you can close the application.
  3. Copy x360ce.ini and xinput1_3.dll to the game application folder and run the game.
If x360ce is properly configured, a beep should be heard when launching the game

Uninstallation

Simply delete xinput1_3.dll from the game folder.

Issues unresolved

Can't use controllers with Unity engine games

Unity is incompatible due to the Unity input manager using Raw Input instead of DirectInput.[1] See Controller for other alternatives.

Issues fixed

Right Analog Stick Activates Left Trigger

Instructions

x360ce not detected

Some games use xinput1_4.dll (e.g. OlliOlli).
Note that this will not work for Unity engine games.
Instructions
