Controller Issues

My Xbox 360 controller only works for the Coin-op games, I cant play any Nintendo games with it

If you have been through your options fully, you may have to install a controller emulator ect.. such as Xpadder or Ds3 Tool ( PS3 )

I use a 360 controller sometimes. There's no known compatibility issues. Try updating your controller's driver.

Also, ensure that Steam is not running in the background. Its known to cause interference with controllers and ArcadeOX.

Do I need to install a controller imulator? My Xbox controller still will not work for any other games, only for Coin-op

My 360 controller works fine on the site. The only two issues you should encounter is with Steam running in the background and the 360's shitty hat-switch d-pad. Make sure your driver is up to date, Steam is fully closed, and test your controller through your control panel. You might want to force the d-pad into only outputting 4 or 8 directions. Iirc, the 360 preset is 16 directional for whatever stupid reason.

see i am more lost than the TC, dont know if its a windows 10 issue, but after updating the 360 driver and activating it to work with the wireless adapter, controller is connected, but none of the games are responding, dont use steam, hit tab but cant find an option that switches to 360 input, not great with computers but this isnt easy either, so any answer to get the controller to work

Bluetooth is the advanced way to play as far as controllers but the best reliable way is to use a hardwired controller, 360, PS3 or PC. I think it may be the new browser updates that are causing conflict because I am having the same issues as well, I dont use steam Im on windows 7 and have been using the same method up until now. The easiest route to go is a controller emulator if the help and troubleshooting topic fails, I hope this helps.

where would be good place to download an emulator (legit site), also has anyone tried using the windows 10 microsoft adapter for xbox one controllers for this?

**Jason L. Davis** · 02-05-2016, 08:47 PM

I would use Xpadder for 360 controllers personally, Just go to the Xpadder official website for the free download. Sorry I may not be the correct Mod to answer your second question, However , I have heard nothing of the sort for the Xbox Ones controller testing for the site yet so my answer would be that it is not capable...Yet... i Hope This Helps You, Thank You.

I'm on Win 10, and I've been using my XBox 1 controller via USB. For me, it was just plug and play - but I had to disconnect my usual Qanba fighting stick first, and have the XB1 controller be the ONLY controller plugged in. Once Windows recognized it, I opened up RU and started playing a few games - no problems, no installs, no third-party s/w.

**Jason L. Davis** · 02-05-2016, 10:38 PM

Well there you have it Bigstew!

well thats good to hear, just tried it and i must be missing something, my controller is connected to the wireless adapter, evens brings up the xbox menu when i press the xbox button, but just tried a sega and a super nintendo game and none of the buttons respond for the game

I'm not sure about wireless. I'm wiring mine with micro USB. I used it again yesterday - unplugged my usual controller, plugged in XB1 controller via micro USB to USB, the controller's light came on, I heard the little Windows 10 sound, indicating it recognized it. I had to reconfigure the game I'd already played, to assign the controller buttons and sticks again. Is the light on your XB1 controller at least coming on? If you go into the individual game menu to assign controls to your input, can you get a response then?

**bigstew** · 02-11-2016, 01:24 PM

well the light on the controller comes on, and i read that you have to change the input in game, no response when i press buttons for the individual config, even tried the different controller selection unless i am missing something

**bigstew** · 08-24-2016, 01:16 PM

well waited for the aniversay update for win 10, updated controller and driver, still cant get the controller to work and pressing tab and not finding an option for the controller, tried pressing some buttons, wouldn't let me set, doesn't seem to recognize the controller is hooked up, tested with the Microsoft accessiores app and was able to move the controller around, just seems ie wont recognize the controller no matter what, will just have to try a 3rd party controller instead, if a solution is ever found, let me know

Go into the device manager and make sure it is active.
