    x360ce (Xbox 360 Controller Emulator)

    x360ce (Xbox 360 Controller Emulator)

    x360ce allows your controller to function as an Xbox 360 controller

    x360ce, or Xbox 360 Controller Emulator, is a Windows utility that lets many gamepads, joysticks, wheels, and other controllers behave like an Xbox 360 controller. It is mainly used for PC games that support XInput controllers but do not properly recognize older or non-Xbox DirectInput devices. Older versions worked by placing configuration and DLL files inside a game folder, while version 4 uses a virtual Xbox 360 controller driver while the app keeps running.
