Hello everyone,
This week I'm addressing the issue that a lot of you have got non-Xinput controllers you'd like to use with Controller Companion.
Instead of implementing a bespoke DirectInput mapping system, I've chosen to lean on the excellent open-source "Xbox 360 Controller Emulator" software (x360ce).
There is now a new dialogue in Settings under Advanced that will allow you to download, install and launch x360ce for Controller Companion.
This will allow all your DirectInput controllers to work with Controller Companion, though be aware that Xinput controllers will no longer work with the app if you install x360ce.
If you need any help with x360ce, do go check out their website: http://www.x360ce.com/default.aspx
Please be aware that we will not be able to offer any support for x360ce, nor do we take any responsibility for anything that happens as a result of installing or using x360ce.
