I just got back from the store i got my self a shitty little 3rd party microsoft 360 controller right.

and i got it all working not every thing is mapped right but i got some things working.

I just found an old topic on the forums here something about the triggers not working as i have the mapped that way on the real 360 and that is how i use my macros all the time now.

Should i return this controler and get a ps3 one i need the triggers can someone explain to me is there a way to work around this or still do it right please.

this is the one topic i am talking about here.

I did not know if where i got the drivers matter but I thought I should put it in there

I am useing this controller btw. the controller mapping is messed up but B is x and x is b but i can get around testing it out now

PS4 is the best controller you can get for PC; you can use the touchpad as a mouse button with left/right clicks, and get a chatpad so you never have to use a keyboard again.

Fortunately you don't need XBCD anymore, uninstall those drivers and use the official wired drivers from here (which you seem to have done), then go to POL's controller config and pick "Alternate Setup E". Since you are using a 3rd party controller you may have to point it to the correct drivers while reinstalling since they look for a specific hardware PID when installing.

what do you mean when installing.

can you explain to me how i can get the triggers and stick to work as well or if we cant get the triggers how can i get the macros to be bumpers and the others on back and pause.
