x360ce for games that only support xbox360 controllers
BadMouth:
I kept getting confused when making the .ini files by hand, so made myself a visual aid and attached it to the first post.
A lot of the old (win 95-2000 era) don't recognize more than 16 buttons, so you can only use the top two buttons on the steering wheel unless you work around it with profiler.

Let's talk about Ridge Racer Unbounded. :angel:
I was under the impression that it only worked with xinput controllers, so I set up the x360ce files in and it seemed to be working, but would flash a rear view very quickly when pulling the right paddle which was mapped to Drift (B).
Also, no matter what I did button 8 would always continue to work for drift.
Then it started crashing just before the start of a race. A search online lead me to think that having multiple controllers connected was the culprit.
Removed the x360ce files & unplugged the G27 and no crash.
Plugged up the G27 without the x360ce files and the analog controls continued to work.
I figured out this much. (Pedals are marked separate and work)
Button 4 is POWER
Button 8 is DRIFT
Button 3 is CHANGE CAM
Button 5 is LOOK BACK
The game displays keyboard keys instead of Xbox buttons, so it doesn't think an xbox controller is connected anymore.
Doesn't seem to be anyway to remap stuff in the game, but it can be done in Logitech profiler.
None of the other buttons seem to do anything, but Logitech Profiler can have them post the keyboard keys.
Soooo.....does the game work like this with a G27 out of the box, or did temporarily using x360ce enable something that wasn't there before?
This is good news, but.....
I'm actually liking this game now that I can play it with a wheel. Having to press a button to drift instead of just tapping the brakes is kind of annoying, but it's not bad if mapped to a paddle.

Need to get a handbrake built and working... :)
When I get R.R.U. working on my cab, I didn't have any crashing problems or false controls. ? I'll have to go back and see what I did.

After rearranging the buttons in profiler, it plays friggin' perfect. Just like the wheel is supported except for ffb.
I did have rumble enabled and working when using x360ce. Maybe that played a role in the crashing, although it still crashed after disabling ffb in the ini file.
Driftopia worked the same way, but I had also ran it with x360ce a couple times (no crashes).
...so I'm still not sure if it was possible to use the wheel without running x360ce.
A normal person would probably just be happy it's working and move on, but I might have to do a clean install of the game on my laptop and test it without ever running x360ce. If the wheel works out of the box, why are there tons of posts online about the game not working with a wheel and zero to the contrary?

Two things.
1) People aren't computer friendly. Especially anything beyond plug and play. You can't fix that.
2) If you bought the game via Steam (I think thats the only way?) you can have Steam "clean up" the files for you. Delete all your .EXEs and Config files, then in the Steam client, right click on the game and go to properties - Local Files - "Verify Integrity of Game Cache"
That'll redownload files you're missing (or deleted)
