Is there anyway I can use my Xbox one controller for this? Cause I'm really clumsy with KB/M.
Which game are you talking about?

While I'm not the original poster, I have the same question, for Vampire The Masquerade: Bloodlines.

I've used Pinnacle (and its precursor, whatever it was called), but it's all... just... really bad now. They've been merged into one application that has retained the bizarre, not fun series of adventure game puzzles to verify the fact you've paid for it and it hasn't worked for any of our games since. *shrugs* All you get is some dude's 'name' and email address--no reply if you try contacting 'him'.

It's been a while since we've used Xpadder.

Any controller support at all for this? I came to games too late to have got used to WASD etc and will likely get shit for it on here but oh well.

If ANYONE has had ANY success with an XBOX 360 controller (or any, really--we've got PS3 and PS4 ones as well. And would be happy to pick up another one--Logitech, Razer, whatever) please reply with some help. I'd really appreciate it. Seriously. Some milk of human--or vampiric--kindness would be awesome. Thanks in advance!

When I want to use a controller (sometimes I get m+k rsi), I just add the game to Steam and use the steam client's controller configuration.

Right click the name in the game list after you've added it and make a controller profile for the game. Steam should detect what kind of controller you have plugged in, let you designate which stick is for character movement, which is for camera control, and you can assign your controller buttons to just about any key on the keyboard.

I enjoy the steam controller setup simply because it has good options for stick sensitivity curves and now supports action layers allowing more robust modifier key like options for more buttons. I typically modify my face buttons and dpad to do different things when I have a shoulder button or trigger held down for example.

Steam will find the vtmb exe file, you will have to add the unofficial patch command line to the launch settings to use the unofficial patch rather than vanilla vtmb.
While you can use a controller, you cannot cancel an action by pressing the same button such as feeding, which makes it almost unusable.

How are you get the PS3 pad to work with the PC?

For Pinnacle, the sole dev died about a year ago then the forums went away and came back recently and in that time the download from there had malware or a trojan in it. I don't know if the side project padstarr was affected by these issues but something strange was going on.


If Bloodlines uses the Source engine like half life 2 you might be able to manually make a gamepad work through a config file like you could with Source games before they updated and broke part of it in games like CS.
I was looking at this again and you can create a config file which should make a xbox 360 pad work for people that want to try. The console commands are slightly different to current Source games because thi
