What you have to do is backup and replace 4 dll files in your windows/system32 folder with the xinput1_3.dll from the archive.

You're looking to replace...

xinput1_1.dll
xinput1_2.dll
xinput1_3.dll
xinput9_1_0.dll

... so yes, you'll need to make four copies of the dll from the archive and rename them to match.

The next thing to do is copy the xbox360cemu.ini from the archive to the root of your windows directory. This file determines the button and axis mapping in relation to xbox 360 controls. You will most likely need to edit this file so refer to the readme for details.

I've got a playstation 2 gamepad working with the game using this fix and it should work for any game that requires the use of the 360 controller like fallout 3 or overlord. The analog sticks work properly too.

For those who still can't delete xinput9_1_0.dll after setting full admin privileges in vista. Here is a fix.

type 'cmd' in your search prompt. right click on the cmd icon and select, "run as administrator"

type "takeown /f C:\Windows\System32\XInput9_1_0.dll" in command prompt and press enter
type "cacls C:\Windows\System32\XInput9_1_0.dll /G nate:F" "my user name is nate, substitute yours there"

Now you'll be able to delete/rename/etc... to the file. This will work for all system files as well, with the appropriate substitutions.



TESTED IT WORKS !!
