Xbox 360 Controller Mapping For PC [How To Guide]

Button mapping for the Xbox 360 controller on PC

With the “Xbox 360 Controller Emulator,” any controller (gamepad, joystick, steering wheel, pedals, etc.) can be used on a PC in place of an Xbox 360 controller. In games like “Grand Theft Auto” and “Saints Row,” you may remap buttons and axes to use a steering wheel and pedals or a joystick and throttle.

If the game you want to play on Steam only partially supports controllers, reWASD can help you out by allowing you to unmap all the controller buttons, assign them to keyboard keys, and then use the gamepad normally. This is why Steam’s ad hoc controller support is no longer an issue.

When configuring your Xbox 360 controller for use with your PC, you can now choose from 50 available assignments instead of just 14. Using an Xbox 360 controller on a PC is easy, and I’ve put together a quick tutorial to show you how it’s done. In reWASD, you may assign any control to act as Shift, and when you press and hold it, your primary control scheme shifts to something else. As with reWASD 3.1, you can also use Toggle Shift to switch between the two layouts with a single press. Let’s go over the steps for connecting an Xbox 360 controller to a PC so you don’t miss a beat. All the information with detail also available on filesmama.

When using an Xbox 360 controller on a PC, the shift mode is optimal.
