Hi Guys,

First post on MWO (Be nice ;)). After a couple of days reading the forums and google, I managed to get my Wireless Xbox 360 Contoller working. To recap, I just ordered an old Xbox 360 Wireless Receiver for my spare Controller to play MWO. The OEM Driver from MS site doesn't work properly. The LTrigger - Yaxis, B button, and RBumper are permanently screwed.

Here's what I did on my PC - Win7x64;
1. Uninstalled OEM Driver Software. Control Panel>Programs>"MS Xbox 360 ...1.x..." software
2. Unzipped the x360wcxxx.en Win ver. of choice to a new folder from Nation Uprise's Link (Thanks N.U)
http://mwomercs.com/...lity-overriden/
3. In Computer Manager>MS xbox360 ...>Properties>Driver>Update Driver, manually by browsing to that new folder.
--Once done the replaced driver provider will be Masahiko...
4. Went to Devices>Game Controller Settings>Properties and tested controller.
--From here you can use the in-game setup or any 3rd party, I went with Pinnacle Game Profiler(PGP).
5. On PGP, I only set the 2 joystick's XY - axis and used Z as triggers
6. Downloaded Errol's MWO PGP support from http://pinnaclegamep...hwarrior-online or using PGP software search tool.
7. Customized the layout to my own preference. (see pic) combo commands are 1st=click/2nd=hold

So far the controls aren't as buggy and I can finally play on TV+HTPC slouching in my sofa. I still prefer Mouse+KB though. Hope this helps anyone who wanted to play MWO with Xbox 360 controllers.

**Update: Forgot to mention that I have a Logitech DiNovo Mini for chatting on my HTPC, so it's a bit of a juggle :P

I haven't tried xpadder, you should install this driver if your existing MS driver has button conflicts when playing MWO like mine does. The new driver no conlicts.
