[SOLVED] DOOM 3 with a gamepad (xbox 360 controller)

Is it possible get a xbox 360 controller working with DOOM 3 under Linux? I know that under windows you can use something like xpadder to get it to work with DOOM 3. What alternative is there under Linux?

  • [solved] Getting xbox 360 controller to work in Skyrim with xboxdrv

    I am trying to get my xbox 360 controller to work in Skyrim. I installed xboxdrv from AUR and I can get it running with no problems. I have xinput installed in the prefix via winetricks. I've blacklisted xpad kernel module and have xboxdrv running as a systemd service. Xbox controller support is turned on in the game's options.
    The issue I'm having is that the controller will still only operate with certain games, which are the games that can use it with the regular xpad kernel module.
    Here's some details about the set-up:
    √ systemd service:
    [Unit]
    Description = xboxdrv
    [Service]
    User = root
    Type = simple
    ExecStart = /usr/bin/xboxdrv -D -c /etc/conf.d/xboxdrv
    [Install]
    WantedBy = multi-user.target
    √ xboxdrv config:
    [xboxdrv]
    silent = true
    mimic-xpad = true
    #force-feedback = true
    chatpad = true
    led = 2
    [xboxdrv-daemon]
    detach = true
    dbus = disabled
    √ xinput winetrick is installed:
    Anyone see anything wrong with my setup?

  • Step by step complete setup for WRT54G ver.6 with Laptop and XBOX 360

    Hello.  I am sorry to post this, I am sure it is a juevenile and redundent question...but I have tried to look for the set up cd (I can find where to download it...though I can find the firmware upgrade or whatever).  My friend at work said it would do all the setup pretty much automatically for me.  
    I somewhat know computers, but you might go ahead and make your replies VERY lamen's terms or I might not be able to follow.  Anyways, what I need, is a step by step/screen by screen directions for a secure network.  I have made a partial attempt at setting it up and it technically works, but I would feel better if I did the steps a-z in order, so I know that it is done correctly.  I also am not totally confident in its security as it is now.  (Also, technically, I did not check the XBOX again after getting the new laptop, I am just assuming it is still working because it was before).
    My problem is I can't seem to find very good directions for setting up the router...I only find partials or confusing directions.
    So here are the things I am trying to connect:
    Liksys WRT54G ver. 6
    Gateway Laptop running Windows Vista
    XBOX 360 - WIRED
    (I had a PC and a laptop, but they both died at the same time and I have only been able to replace the laptop at this point...the PC will come later and not sure at this point if it will be Wired or not).
    I have a cable Modem between the Router and the wall...I didn't look at that for brand/etc...but I can get it ASAP if needed.
    Here are the settings that I have so far:
    Changed the Router Name
    Changed the SSID
    Have DHCP set to 3  (XBOX, PC, Laptop)
    Wireless SSID Broadcast: Disable
    Username and Password changed to my own info
    UPnP: Enable
    I may have changed other things without knowing it.  So like I said, a complete, step by step screen by screen set up would be totally appreciated.  I haven't done anything in the security tab, all that is totally foreign to me, so I am just not broadcasting for now until I can get some help setting things up with you guys.
    And if someone is familiar with the Laptop/XBOX 360 setup, and I need to change any of the settings on the XBOX itself, could you please include that in your directions?  I know that isn't technically what THIS forum is for, but it would sure be helpful to me if you happen to know both parts anyways.
    Thanks a lot (in advance)!

    So all you just need to do is, secure your Wireless Network. Follow the setps bellow and change the settings on your Router.
    Open an Internet Explorer browser page on your wired computer(desktop).In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1 and press Enter...Leave Username blank & in Password use admin in lower case...
    For Wireless Settings, please do the following : -
    Click on the Wireless tab
    - Wireless Network mode should be mixed...
    - Provide a unique name in the Wireless Network Name (SSID) box in order to differentiate your network from your neighbours network...
    - Set the Wireless channel to 11-2.462GHz...Wireless SSID broadcast should be Enabled and then click on Save Settings...
    Please make a note of Wireless Network Name (SSID) as this is the Network Identifier...
    For Wireless Security : -
    Click on the Sub tab under Wireless > Wireless Security...
    Change the Wireless security mode to WPA, For Encryption, select TKIP...For Passphrase input your desired WPA Key. For example , MySecretKey , This will serve as your network key whenever you connect to your wireless network. Do NOT give this key to anyone and remember the key.
    NOTE : Passphrase should be more that 8 characters...
    Now see if you can locate your Wireless Network and attempt to connect...
    Click on Advanced Wireless Settings
    Change the Beacon Interval to 75 >>Change the Fragmentation Threshold to 2304, Change the RTS Threshold to 2304 >>Click on "Save Settings"...
    Now see if you can locate your Wireless Network and attempt to connect... 

  • Is there a way to play on the same wireless network with 2 different xbox 360 accounts?

    Is there a way to play on the same wireless network with 2 different xbox 360 accounts?

    Not sure what your question has to do in respect to Apple networking, but if you're asking can you use your Xbox 360 on a wireless network (regardless of the router's manufacturer) to access different Xbox Live! accounts, then the answer is yes.

  • Xbox 360 controller (wired) and compatability with Windows 7

    Ok, here's the scoop. I have an Xbox 360 controller and a plug 'n play kit for it. I have tried the normal solutions for hooking it up and getting it to recognize in Windows 7 (32 bit) Home Prem. Edition, and all I get is it is an 'Unspecified' device in the Control Panel, and as a result, it will not be recognized in games as a controller, and will not work. I have installed the proper drivers and the 360 Accessories for Windows, but even that doesn't recognize the controller when it is plugged into my USB 2.0 port. The driver is properly installed (Windows told me the driver was installed correctly when I first plugged in my controller, after installing the program from the Microsoft website), so I have no idea why it is not working. I have followed all the stepd that I can find. Please give me some assistance.

    If you already have the software installed, go to programs and features and uninstall Microsoft XBOX 360 Accessories 1.2.
    1) Download the drivers from http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/download/download.aspx?category=gaming
    2) Choose Gaming > Xbox 360 Controller for Windows > Windows 7 64 bit > English.                                           
    Don’t run the drivers.  Save them to a folder.
    (Or Xbox 360 Wireless Controller for Windows depending on your controller)
    3) Right click the Xbox360_64Eng file in the folder you downloaded to and click "create shortcut"
    4) Right click the shortcut you created.  Select properties.
    5) On the compatibility tab in properties, click "Run this program in compatibility mode"                  
    Choose Windows Server 2008 Service Pack 1 as the compatibility mode. Apply setting and click ok.
    6) Right Click on the shortcut and select "Run as administrator"
    7) With your controller plugged in go to Device Manager. 
    You should see Microsoft Common Controller for Windows Class. It located under Mice and other pointing if you do, you have arrived. If you don't, try this.
    Continue only if you don’t see Microsoft Common Controller for Windows Class in Device Manager
    8) Right click the unknown device that shows a problem.
    9) Update Driver Software > Browse My computer for Driver Software > Let Me Pick from a List of Drivers
    10) Choose Microsoft Common Controller for Windows Class > XBOX 360 Wireless Receiver for Windows
    Ignore the warning.
    Should work now.
    Please help :(  It's still not working!   Your suggestions helped almost everything.  I don't think there was the Microsoft Common Controller for Windows class/Xbox 360 Wireless Controller via Play and Charge Kit in Device Manager before I tried
    your tips of reinstalling under that old service pack compatibility mode.
    Now that I see that, I thought it'd be fixed... but no!  If I run joy.cpl (the Game Controllers window) it still doesn't see my Xbox controller.  It still isn't recognized by the actual 360 controller software for my PC.  
    I did try updating the drivers again in the device manager, and I am plugged into a Blue USB port.  What else?  Is it something to do with my battery pack or something?  Help!!
    I don't know if this will notify me of a response, so please feel free to email me at smorin1487 @   gmail

  • Using a Xbox 360 controller with Qosmio G30

    Hi,
    I'm trying to use the xbox 360 controller with pro evo soccer 2010 on my laptop.
    At first it was flashing, but then it stopped.
    The drivers and everything have installed correctly, is there any other way???
    In device manager, there are no exclamation marks, it seems fine.
    But the game wont play, unless I use the keyboard.

    Hello
    Maybe the controller is faulty.
    Have you tested it on your Xbox 360 and does it work?
    Can you also test another controller?

    I have made it, I'm very happy with myself. It's not perfect but should work. It only builds and installs the xboxdrv binary, the other featured tools are not touched. Any improvements are welcomed.
    The final dilemma is what category to submit in the AUR. It's not a module or a game, technically not a lib. There needs to be a category for generic utilities.

  • Exchanging an Xbox 360 Controller??

    Earlier in the day I purchased an Xbox 360 controller at Best Buy and when I took the controller out I noticed that the left thumbstick makes a terribly loud and annoying squeaky sound whenever you move it. It will not go away. I was wondering if I would be able to go to the same store tomorrow and exchange it for the exact same style of controller. I have the box and everything still as well as the receipt. Thanks for your time!
    Solved!

    Hello Brendan352,
    I am not the biggest gamer in the world, but even I have encountered the dreaded squeaky thumbsick.  It can definitely be quite annoying!  You are well within the 15 day return/exchange period (30 days for Elite members and 45 days for Elite Plus members) if you purchased the Xbox 360 controller yesterday and should have no real problem exchanging it.  With that being said, you would want to bring the controller and your receipt up to the customer service counter at any Best Buy store for further assistance.

  • Trouble Connecting a Wireless Xbox 360 Controller to Windows 8.1 via the Play & Charge Kit

    I've been trying to connect a standard black wireless Xbox 360 controller to my PC, a Dell Inspiron 17R Special Edition (what makes it special is a mystery to me, but that's the name) with the standard Play & Charge Kit.
    I downloaded the drivers from Microsoft's website <http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/en-us/d/xbox-360-wireless-controller-for-windows>. Since there was no version for Windows 8.1, I downloaded the version for windows 7 (64-bit) and ran the installer
    in compatibility mode. The installer ran just fine, and I was able to run joy.cpl with no trouble. The trouble was, my controller doesn't show up in the list of game controllers, which is blank.
    Under Devices and Printers, an item named "Xbox 360 Wireless Controller via Play and Charge Kit" appears in the "Unspecified" category. When I look at the properties of this device, there are only two tabs, "General" and "Hardware".
    Under the "Hardware" tab, there is a device also named"Xbox 360 Wireless Controller via Play and Charge Kit" whose properties have all the proper drivers and suchlike.
    Help!

    Uninstall all the driver.
    Download and install the latest driver,or,you may try the same to get via Windows Update.

    Wanted to know if there is a way to get the xbox 360 controller or the nintendo wii to work with my java application. Has anyone been able to access either controller using java.
    Thanks

    nope. you can use jinput to use game controllers... but only game controllers
    that can be plugged in and have a driver.
    i dont have any game systems, do the controllers have a usb attachment and computer drivers?

  • Xbox 360 controller support

    I've found a couple of old threads that require a recompilation of the kernel or a kernel patch (I think) or recompilation of a module in order to get XBox 360 controller working, but those were from 2.6.24 or 2.6.28. Is that still necessary? Can someone point me in the right direction for how to get my box to recognize and use the XBox 360 controller? I've modprobed joydev and xpad, but all dmesg says when I plug in the controller is
    usb 3-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 5
    usb 3-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
    Suggestions?

    majiq wrote:I'm trying to use it with GridWars, but it doesn't seem to be registering. As a note, I found no new entries in /dev/input/.
    Grid Wars looks for the joysticks registered as /dev/js(0,1,2,etc). So if you ever get the controller registered under /dev/input just symlink the /dev/input/jsX to /dev/jsX.

  • XBox 360 controller doesn't work in game in Outlast

    I got Outlast, that new horror game, and a Wolf Among Us. I installed Tattleboogie's drivers and using an wired xbox 360 controller (original). In Wolf Among Us it works fine, in the Tattleboogie's settings everything shows as working with responce on every button, but in Outlast, even though the controller is identified and shows up in settings and in the menus as if it were working, it simply doesn't. I get no responce from presses at all.
    Also, I've tried Game Companion and Joystick Mapper, but those just doesn't work. I can get some movement, but it's irregular and doesn't correspond properly. So I do NOT want to use that kind of software, and shouldn't need to since Outlast should have full controller support and obviously recognize it.
    So anyone know anything about this?
    I'm running on a Macbook Pro 13" with Mavericks installed.

  • Xbox 360 controller works in mate desktop but not DWM?

    Hello,
    I just switched to DWM from mate desktop. I use my xbox 360 controller with steam home streaming. Worked perfectly under mate but it doesnt work at all in DWM.
    The xbox controller light is on in dwm and I can confirm it still works under mate. I tried installing xf86-input-joystick but no joy. (didnt need this under mate)
    Anyone know what makes this work in mate desktop or how to make it work in dwm?
    Many Thanks.
    PS: Don't know if it helps but my .xinitrc is just a copy of /etc/skel
    #!/bin/sh
    # ~/.xinitrc
    # Executed by startx (run your window manager from here)
    if [ -d /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d ]; then
    for f in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/*; do
    [ -x "$f" ] && . "$f"
    done
    unset f
    fi
    setxkbmap gb &
    exec dwm
    #exec mate-session

    I installed this driver:
    http://tattiebogle.net/index.php/ProjectRoot/Xbox360Controller/OsxDriver
    And now my MBP reliably recognizes the controller (evident by it showing me what commands it is receiving in the preference pane created by this driver), but I've found that getting an individual game to behave nicely with the controller is a whole other ball of wax...good luck.
