Has anyone managed to get non-MS gamepads to work with Tomb Raider?

Hi guys

I have a Thrustmaster 3-in-1 gamepad (the ones that come with USB and PS2 connectivity) which works just fine in everything else but I can't get it to work with Tomb Raider. Apart from the utter absurdity of not being able to map gamepad buttons in-game, I just can't make the buttons on the pad line up with what the game is telling me; basically, when the game tells me to press button 1, I have to press button 2 to achieve the desired effect.

I've tried using x360ce (which is actually what enabled me to get the pad to work at all) but when I remap the buttons through that the game just ignores it.

Is there any way to fix this? I really want to play the game, but I hate playing this kind of game with keyboard and mouse

Thanks!

 

You can try motioninjoy (it's what I use for my ps3 controller) but if that doesn't work the game plays well with a mouse and keyboard.

 

I would also recommend motionjoy to use because you can emulate an xbox 360 controller with it. I use a ps3 controller and emulate it as a 360 controller and it recognizes it as a 360 controller in most games. Here is their website MotioninJoy | Playstation 3|Xbox 360|Dualshock 3|Sixaxis|Game|Driver|

 

Motioninjoy doesn't work -- this isn't a Playstation gamepad, it's a gamepad with USB and PS2 connectivity. Motioninjoy doesn't recognise the gamepad

It's this thing here:

Any other ideas?

 

Try this controller mapping software. You will have to pay for it. I don't remeber if they have a try it out period.

Best thing to do is just get a wired 360 controller. You can kiss all these problems goodbye if you do that.
