Xbox 360 Controller rumble help

[mattg568]

I've heard that, with the XBCD+360 Patch drivers, the 360 wired pad rumble feature could work for Project 64 with N-Rage's input plugin. Well, I've got the Microsoft Xbox 360 wired gamepad and have those XBCD drivers installed and the profile loaded that seperates the left and right triggers to their own axis. I'm able to assign the N64 buttons onto the 360 gamepad, but when I go to the part where you configure mempak or rumblepak the drop-down box under select force feedback device doesn't show anything but "none". I happen to have N-Rage input plugin version 2.00a. Am I not doing something right or does the 360 pad's rumble feature not work yet with Project 64?

you used the full installer for that 360 patch didn't you

theres a bug in that, so you need to install the XBCD driver and the 360 patch seperately.

btw, check the plugins section of this forum for the new nrage plugin

[mattg568]

Okay. Yes, I used that all-in-one installer. So I need to uninstall the XBCD drivers and reinstall using the seperate XBCD driver and 360 patch right?

[squall_leonhart]

yes

[mattg568]

This is so cool! It works! Thank you so much!

BTW, is it weird that in the XBCD setup utility, on the rumble tab, the left and right actuators seem reversed? If I test the left actuator the right actuator rumbles and the same goes for the opposite.

yes very wierd :|

it doesn't really matter, as long as it works

[mattg568]

Yeah, it really doesn't matter. But it's still weird. With the full XBCD installer the rumble sliders were right but with the seperate XBCD installer and 360 patch the rumble sliders operate the opposite actuator. I wonder if anyone else has noticed this?

try this

XBCD - XBox Controller Driver Forum -> Xbcd Rumble Test Is Reversed :|

I uninstalled the XBCD drivers and reinstalled XBCD1.07 and then this new 360 exe file. Upon updating the microsoft driver to the XBCD Xbox360 drivers the controller refused to be detected. There was a yellow circle with a black character in the center next to the XBox 360 controller. So now I've unstalled the drivers again and reinstalled the XBCD and the 360 patch bat file to actually get the controller to be detected.

you have to restart between installs

its a problem with the way the driver disengages i think, it happens to me when i install the full install, then go back to just the xbcd drivers (i only an xbox stype but the new drivers have a few fixes)...

easiest way

plug in control
open device manager, and remove the control form there

unplug control
uninstall the xbcd drivers

RESTART
install the xbcd 1.07, then install the 360 patch installer
plugin in the control

pray it works , it should though. does for me.
