oh I fully understand Why you made the changes, nothing wrong with them, just more personal preference for myself, and I might end up purchasing this https://www.amazon.com/Mizar-Replacement-Xbox-Controller-Adapter-Microsoft/dp/B000RT2868 , so I wanted to see how close to original xbox controller scheme I can get

well... can't really test.. Must be the xinput changes, it won't run with that controller plugged in, unplug it, runs fine... gonna grab the original release and drop it in a different folder, see what happens

***EDIT***
Ok SUCCESS!!!
I used basically the newer patched stuff, the 2015 exe (no xinput or dinput in the folder) so I got widescreen, upsampled movies, etc...
all I had to do was install xbcd (have to turn off windows ten driver sign check though), and in the windows tab set 16 buttons(default is 10)...
on the xbox tab you can set the dpad pov buttons to individual (you pick the button number) save the whole thing and it works.. only major change in the bindings is setting all the button numbers , xbcd starts with 1 not zero.. so you can't do a number for number... button zero in the game is really button 1 so you have to compensate... even though my dpad is set to buttons 13-14-15 and 16 in xbcd, I have to set them as 12-13-14-15 in the bindings.. it works well...
Triggers can also be set as z axis or buttons as well ......game likes buttons...lol

finally figured out how to invert the y axis on the camera too... instead of -1.0 1.0 10.0 it's -1.0 1.0 -10.0

Does vibration work? On xbox original controller?

via the driver settings yes, both motors... not tried in game, does the pc version even support rumble??.. not in the settings anywhere

edit just tried it with EPSXE (using lilypad as a plugin) and rumble works, both motors..tried chrono cross

Does vibration work? On xbox original controller in game?

I have a controller that supports xinput and dinput mode, but in dinput mode no vibration in this game (this dinput game and the xbox original controller is a dinput controller)
I assume that the pc version supports vibration on some kind of specific controllers and maybe since it's a straight port with an Xbox it can on the controller from the first Xbox it would work

But, apparently - the vibration was removed in the PC version

This option is there and it is included in the settings file (vars.cfg), moreover in the game files there is a file responsible for the vibration and in text localization responsible for the text in the menu there is an item called vibration

Indiana Jones and the Emperor's Tomb\GameData\indy\vars.cfg

rumble=true

hmmmm interesting!! compliments of cxbx and the xbox version, the contoller binds that the game stores on the emulated HD

attached screenshot of what it SHOULD look like

ok this is the exact xbox controller config (a couple changes from pulled xbox cfg do to XBCD drver mapping a couple buttons different... this will control the game exactly like it was on original xbox... no keyboard controls are mapped at all

and no rumble.. checked everywhere and it appears it does not support it on PC (although the code is probably there)

\l - Look/camera (Left Trigger on XBOX)

No Left Trigger in game

The Left Trigger button is not displayed, the right is displayed.
Apparently the command \l is not correct and you need a different value, maybe you know what you need.

And I had other command values in the tips file - they are partially incorrect and because of this I was unable to display the buttons in the game at the time, as the necessary buttons either did not appear or were displayed incorrectly.
And in the end, I just made the text

My wrong commands

# \l - Look/camera (Left Trigger on XBOX) - not work\not displayed
# \s - Stalk/Block (Right Trigger on XBOX)
# \j - Jump (B Button / Red on XBOX)
# \k - Right Punch (A Button / Green on XBOX)
# \p - Left Punch (X Button / Blue on XBOX)
# \u - Use / Action (Y Button / Yellow on XBOX)
# \[ - Left Thumbstick (Move Indy)
# \] - Right Thumbstick (Move Camera)
# \w - White Button
# \n - Black Button
# \1 thru 9 - Directional arrows per numpad
# \+ - Directional Pad (Inventory)

You have the right commands, for some reason

# \l - Look/camera (Left Trigger on XBOX) - not work\not displayed
# \r - Stalk/Block (Right Trigger on XBOX)
# \b - Jump (B Button / Red on XBOX)
# \a - Right Punch (A Button / Green on XBOX)
# \x - Left Punch (X Button / Blue on XBOX)
# \y - Use / Action (Y Button / Yellow on XBOX)
# \[ - Left Thumbstick (Move Indy)
# \] - Right Thumbstick (Move Camera)
# \w - White Button
# \n - Black Button
# \1 thru 9 - Directional arrows per numpad
# \+ - Directional Pad (Inventory)

yea might have been \c (for camera) I'll check, I know I did see the icon... I got the correct values by luck..they were wrong(the are correct for xbox version though so PC side must be from before the finalized it) so I said I am going to try button names..lol... the wording is also different cause I used the tips.txt from the xbox version..so all the keyboard references are gone

***EDIT***
Nope just checked.. L trigger icon shows up just fine using \l
screen below

Under what number do you have a left trigger in the layout and under what number in the driver?
