IronArcturus: I tried your mod and I checked the "Remap Slider0 to Z-Axis" option, but it is not recognized by the game. The shoulder buttons LT/RT still don't register. Also, would it be possible for you to add the ability to make the right joystick on the 360 controller work in the game?
Thanks for giving it a go, and I'm sorry it hasn't worked out quite how we hoped. That remap check box isn't needed by X3 as it understands that a slider can be a throttle - that's there to fix "X - Beyond the Frontier" which doesn't (for my Sidewinder 2 and another player's Thrustmaster 1600000.)
Going back to X3:R the 360 pad worked without anything checked, with the left and right triggers controlling the throttle, but it would spring back to zero when released. The only check-box that I think will affect the game is 'Invert Slider' and all that will do is swap the triggers. In short: using a 360 pad in X3 isn't something my mod is going to help you with.
Ultimately you'll need something more heavy-weight like XPadder to improve this game I think.
(and actually I finished this game with mouse and keys and it was perfectly fine, but to each his own :-) )
