XBCD 0.2.7 Released

You can get it directly from Xtemu.com or My Skydrive

This is a Driver for Xbox and Xbox360 controls to provide proper DirectInput functionality, including Trigger remapping and ForceFeedback.

Installation and Usage Notes:
If you are installing this on Vista / Windows 7 x64, please exit setup and start it again using the RunAs Admin item in the right click menu, This is required for the driver to get write access to the registry, and System32 folder.
On Vista/Windows 7 with UAC enabled, you must run the Setup Utility in this same manner (Run as Admin) for it to be able to read and write values to the registry.

On Vista (x32 and x64) SP1, changes have been made which prevent unsigned drivers from loading, to work around this get Driver Signature Enforcement Overrider 1.3b from

http://www.ngohq.com/home.php?page=dseo

You must also change the Advanced system settings to allow unsigned (inf signature) drivers to be installed.

Vista and Seven also require manual installation of the driver, a guide is available at http://xbcd360guide.50webs.com/guide.html (skip step 2 obviously)

XBCD also now contains an Xinput emulator including a predefined config, to make use of it, set XBCD to the Triggers on seperate axis profile or XBCD 360 emu profile in the XBCD Setup app, Read the Xinput emulators read me for information on how to use it there is a Shortcut to the emulator in the XBCD Program Folder in start menu.
The xinput files must be dropped into a supporting game to work, also this is the first xbcd version to include the x360ce setup app, making it easier to configure the x360ce ini.

Requirements:
Windows XP or Higher
MSVC 2010 Runtime Installed, note for x64 you WILL need both the x32 and x64 runtimes installed.

Had some problems seting the up myself. After uninstalling everything and installing according to the steps, I keep getting bsod with XBCD.sys being the offender. Tried going back to 0.2.6 but still had this persists. Not sure what happened exactly, but I did a sys. restore (only lost a few days), copied over the new XBCDR.dll's and at least now I have rumble in my 64bit apps.

Do you know why this happened? Is there anything else from the 0.2.7 package that I'm missing (since all I copied over was the new rumble.dll)?

Either way, this is very welcome. Thanks again!

Theres no difference at all between the drivers in either version.

Cool, still updating in 2010! Was the attempt at support for the 360 wireless controller/usb hub with XBCD drivers abandoned awhile ago? I noticed there was a long thread about it with no updates since last year.

I've used XBCD with my "Xbox Controller S" for years, but ever since I got the wireless receiver for my wireless controllers, I hardly ever used my S controller anymore.

Recently wanted to play "Splinter Cell: Double Agent" but couldn't get the wireless controller to work with it for whatever reason. But XBCD still works great with it!
Still, it'd be nice to use the 360 wireless controller. The Controller S just doesn't have the accuracy anymore.

This is a great project you've done, btw! I really appreciate your work on XBCD.

I have noticed an interesting issue in the rumble driver.

If built with VC2008, several rumble types are very weak, however with VC2010, the effects are strong, and i also gain the function of several effects that never even worked in the original VC6 rumble.

ugh... i hope VC2010 exists beta soon so i can distribute it with the vc2010 rumble driver.

Hopefully! Look forward to it. Thanks for continuing your work here!

Wow, just noticed the version update, nice! Is there a recommended way of updating from 0.2.6 on Win 7 x64? Is it OK to install over the old version or should I uninstall/reinstall?

EDIT: from reading the posts it seems to me that only a few files have been updated/added, and the drivers are still the same as in 0.2.6. If this is so could you please provide a ZIP/RAR with the changed/new files only? And maybe some short instructions about where to put them?

does this work w/ the 360 wireless controllers ?

no.

What, "no"? I was asking more than one question, to which one does what obviously passes for an "answer" in your world apply? You might want to work on your communications skills a little bit.

you might want to stfu, i don't spoonfeed idiots.

I guess you've heard that many tmes before, but you're a jerk. Is your real life so sad that you need to try to piss off people on the internet? I feel sorry for you.

Thanks.. the new version coupled with ngohq's Driver Signature Enforcement Overrider make it easy to install on win7 x64.

Especially the better xbox360 cemu integration is nice!

People who know, are only jerks to people who don't know, because people who don't know refuse to choose to learn and make themselves know.

There is of course reasoning as to why i will not provide the rumble drivers outside of the installer.

Hello. The new driver doesn't recognize my Xbox controller as an XBCD controller. It keeps saying I have the 7-axis, 24-buttons, etc etc gamepad. Hence, no force-feedback in games.

I've compared the .inf from 0.2.7 with the .inf from XBCD+ 0.4, and the reason my gamepad isn't detected is because the VID & PID is not listed in the 0.2.7 .inf. My controller is an Xbox Controller S, with VID_0C12&PID_880A. The .inf from XBCD+ doesn't list it too, but it was covered in the line:

I've tried to edit your .inf so that the driver would recognize my gamepad, but no luck. Is there any way of fixing this problem? The XBCD+ driver works great, but I find your 0.2.7 driver to have better analog stick control, expecially for driving games. And I promise you, I'm not an idiot, I think.
