(Be sure to test the downloaded file with whatever antivirus software you have installed) So the workaround for being able to use the cheap generic controller is quite simple but requires using an “Xbox 360 Controller Emulator”.ĭownload the file x360ce_圆4 from the following site by clicking on the “download for 64 bit games” button at the top of the screen. Analogue sticks are much better suited to aircraft. I’ll admit I switch to a controller for flying vehciles because they are horrible to pilot with direction keys. Ah but GTA isn’t all about the shooting I hear you say and you’re right.
However if you’re playing the game on PC you should be using a keyboard and mouse like a grown-up anyway, it’s way better for shooters. GTA 5 (or GTA V if you’re feeling fancy) was not optimised to use the DirectInput standard unfortunately. You can read more about these standards from Microsoft by clinking on this link. This is probably because the controller is using the DirectInput standard as opposed to the newer XInput standard. So you plugged in the cheap PC controller you bought off eBay or Amazon (say one that is coincidentally shaped like an Xbox controller) and found it doesn’t work with GTA 5?
