Hey guys, sorry if this has already been brought up but I've been having a blast using my 360 controller to play some classic PC games and wanted to use it with Renegade as well. Obviously from the surface it appears that there's no way to configure it considering that in the controls menu it says nothing about any kind of gamepad. But I've heard talk of people using gamepads with it before and was wondering if there was something I could do to get it work. Thanks in advance.

Most gamepads and joysticks come with software that will use your gamepad/joystick data to move your mouse.

Google gamepad to mouse: This was one of the first results, untested by me but sounds right in the description.

My Play Station 2 pad (Plugs into my USB port) works with Renegade, Though using infantry sucks!

I'll restart my pc and test again (RCT3 Demo messed my graphics up! Neutral

)

EDIT: Hmm, It's not working now, Oh well. Sad

Presence is a curious thing, if you think you need to prove it... you probably never had it in the first place.

Thanks for the quick replies. How did you get your Playstation controller to work in the first place?

I have a bud who has some adapter he picked up from Radio Shanty that allows the PS2 controller to plug into the USB port.

However, I got a 360 controller a couple days ago, and I'm also using it for a couple PC games. However, I'm having a hard time using it on GTA: San Andreas, because it won't recognize a couple buttons, including the right analog stick, and the 'LT and RT' triggers. Dont Get It

It's a plug'n'play controller, Built for PC's only. Smile

I have no idea, I did this like 1 year ago, I remember using a flame tank with it, But Iv'e completely forgot how I set it up. :'(
