XBOX 360 Controller

Hi Guys

Cant wait to play around with Freerider and was hoping to use the Xbox 360 controller.

I have used the USB charger to connect to laptop and its recognised by windows. When I start up freerider I cant calibrate the controller or use.


Can anyone help please?


Thanks in advance

Are you able to move any of the little circles on the calibration screen?

There are some general advice in the manual, for example make sure you don't have any other joysticks/controllers connected at the same time.

No..not able to move anything. Weird as it does show up properly in windows

Yes, but Unity (that I use for development) has an own joystick input manager which is a bit different than Windows own. Often the reason a joystick is not detected properly in Freerider is that another joystick/controller is connected at the same time, which causes a conflict. Either that, or that some third party software is causing the conflict. If you have vJoy or Smartpropolus installed, try uninstalling those and see if that helps.

Has anyone managed to use a Phantom 4 controller?
