Version 4.x Download & Help

Xbox 360 Controller Emulator 4.x

The x360ce.exe application version 4.x uses Virtual Gamepad Emulation driver ViGEmBus by nefarius.

Version 3.x uses custom xinput1_*.dll file. Some new games or old games after their latest updates do not permit custom xinput1_*.dll file. Therefore version 3.x doesn’t work with these games any more. To solve the problem, version 4.x was created, which doesn’t use custom xinput1_*.dll file, but creates virtual controller. Currently we are working on version 4.x update, fixing bugs and moving from Microsoft's old “Windows Forms” to latest “Windows Presentation Foundation” application interface.

IMPORTANT: Please download and run digitally signed files only! If someone asks to disable antivirus or exclude X360CE app from anti-virus - DON'T! Report any suspicion in Issues and we will try to resolve any false positive with anti-virus developers.

IMPORTANT Notes

  1. There is no need to place x360ce.exe inside the game folder. You can keep single copy at one place on your PC.

    For example: C:\Program Files\x360ce\x360ce.exe

  2. Do not close Xbox 360 Controller Emulator 4.x during the game, just minimise it to reduce CPU use.

  3. Make sure your game is set to use XInput Devices.

    For example: In "Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands" you have to set OPTIONS > CONTROLLER > ENABLE CONTROLLER: ONLY GAMEPADS

Install and Use Instructions

  1. Download latest Xbox 360 Controller Emulator (same file for 32-bit and 64-bit Windows).
  2. Extract downloaded ZIP file and launch x360ce.exe.

Version 3.x Download & Help

Xbox 360 Controller Emulator 3.x (Old Vesion)

The x360ce.exe application version 3.x is just a GUI for editing x360ce.ini and testing your controller. The x360ce.exe (3.x) application can be closed before launching the game. The game doesn't need it and it uses your computer's resources.

Version 3.x uses custom xinput1_*.dll file. Some new games or old games after their latest updates do not permit custom xinput1_*.dll file. Therefore version 3.x doesn’t work with these games any more. To solve the problem, version 4.x was created, which doesn’t use custom xinput1_*.dll file, but creates virtual controller. Currently we are working on version 4.x update, fixing bugs and moving from Microsoft's old “Windows Forms” to latest “Windows Presentation Foundation” application interface.

System Requirements

• Windows Vista or newer.
• .NET 3.5 (includes 2.0 and 3.0) - included in Windows 7.
In Windows 8 and 10: Control Panel > Programs and Features > Turn Windows features on or off > enable “.NET Framework 3.5 (includes 2.0 and 3.0)”.
• .NET 4.6 (includes 4.0) - included in Windows 8 and 10.
• DirectX End-User Runtime (June 2010) - Required regardless of OS; .NET MUST be installed prior to the DirectX update.
• Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2013 - For x64 systems install both x86 and x64 redistributables.

Files

• xinput1_3.dll (Library) - Translates XInput calls to DirectInput calls - supports old, non-XInput compatible GamePads.
• x360ce.exe - (Application) - Allows for editing and testing of Library settings.
• x360ce.ini - (Configuration) - Contain Library settings (button, axis, slider maps).
• x360ce.gdb - (Game Database) Includes required hookmasks for various games).
• Dinput8.dll - (DirectInput 8 spoof/wrapping file to improve X360CE compatibility in rare cases).

Installation

Run this program from the same directory as the game executable. XInput library files exist with several different names and some games require a change in its name. Known names:

• xinput1_4.dll
• xinput1_3.dll
• xinput1_2.dll
• xinput1_1.dll
• xinput9_1_0.dll

Uninstallation

Delete x360ce.exe, x360ce.ini and all XInput DLLs from the game's executable directory.

Troubleshooting

Dead Zone problems:

Some games have control issues, when Dead Zone is reduced to 0%.

Increase the Anti-Dead Zone value, if there is gap between the moment, when you start to push the axis related button, and the reaction in game.

Some controllers will only operate in game, if they are set as “GamePad”. Try to:

1. Run x360ce.exe
2. Select [Controller #] tab page with your controller.
3. Open [Advanced] tab page.
4. Set "Device Type" drop down list value to: GamePad.
5. Click [Save] button.
6. Close x360ce Application, run game.

Only one controller, mapped to PAD1, may work correctly in some games. Try to:

1. Run x360ce.exe
2. Select the [Controller #] tab page corresponding to your controller.
3. Open the [Direct Input Device] tab page (visible when the controller is connected).
4. Set "Map To" drop down list value to: 1.
5. Set "Map To" drop down list values (repeat steps 2. to 4.) for other controllers, if you have them, to: 2, 3 or 4.
6. Click [Save] button.
7. Close x360ce Application, run game.

To use more than one controller in game, you may need to combine them. Try to:

1. Run x360ce.exe
2. Select the [Controller #] tab page corresponding to your additional controller.
3. Open the [Advanced] tab page.
4. Set "Combine Into" drop down list value to: One.
5. Select [Options] tab page.
6. Check "Enable Combining" check-box. (Note: Uncheck "Enable Combining" check-box, when you want to configure the controller.)
7. Click [Save] button.
8. Close x360ce Application, run game.

If [Controller #] tab page light won't turn green / Red light on [Controller #] tab page:

• The controller profile loaded may match the name of your controller, but not actually be for the controller you own.
• There just might not be a profile for your control at all. The light should turn green once the 2 sticks, triggers and D-pad are assigned. Sometimes x360ce.exe application needs to be restarted, after assigning these, for the light to turn green.
• The controller profile might have PassThrough (check-box) enabled.
• The DInput state of the controller might be incorrect due to an application crashing previously and not unloading the controller or some other reason. Opening up Joy.cpl (Set Up USB Game Controllers) and clicking the [Advanced] button, and then Okaying out of the window, that appears, can fix it.
