XPADDER: USE YOUR PC GAMEPAD

Image
  Xpadder is a small and simple.Windows application that lets you make the most of your gamepad – and it is free! Xpadder has several features. The most basic is that it lets you map keys to your gamepad buttons. I decided to make a tutorial here to connect with the emulator guides. Some obvious uses of Xpadder in this context: Some emulators that don’t support gamepads natively. Some emulators that don’t let you redefine the gamepad commands freely (use keys, and remap them any way you want). Use it to map function keys from emulators to extra buttons (e.g. you can map load and save state to shoulder buttons in Genesis games for “quick load” and “quick save”). Xpadder also lets you map mouse commands to your pad or map sequences of keys to a single button press. I leave it to you to devise your uses for these.  I’ve been happy to use solely the basic feature. THE TUTORIAL STEP 1 : DOWNLOAD XPADDER  You can download xpadder from Xpadder.net.
