Xbox 360 Controller Emulation on the PC, Update 1

This is an update to an older post. 
 
A new version of the Xbox 360 Controller Emulator is available. This allows Logitech controllers to be recognized as Xbox controllers when playing Games for Windows games. The new version may be found here:

 This version now works with Red Faction: Guerrilla (which I've tested) and Trine (which I've not). These games require a few additional steps: 

1. In the Red Faction folder where rfg.exe is located, copy the emulator's DLL and INI file.
2. Open the INI file using an editor.
3. Change FakeAPI=0 to FakeAPI=1.
4. Change VID=0x0 and PID=0x0 to their respective values.

1. Open the Device Manager, which may be found in the Control Panel.
2. Under Human Interface Devices, open the Properties of the HID-compliant game controller and go to the Details tab.
3. From the drop-down menu, select Hardware Ids.
4. One of the entries should contain the VID and PID values you need.

That's pretty cool....of course you could just get a 360 controller, but if that's not an option this seems like something useful.  

Thats really cool

I use a logitec cordless rumblepad 2, however that's very complicated if I need all those steps to play games. Or do you mean only certain games needs to change the .ini?

I use the following xinput dll replacement (I found the link here).

Dirt 2 and Grid think my $25 Seitek P3200 is an XBox controller.  The rumble feature works in Grid.  All you have to do is put the xinput dll in the game's directory (even if it's the steam version).  To enable rumble you may have to edit the .ini.
