Smooth Controller

Post by cullyg4 »

I am having a problem with Xpadder, I love it, but in all my games I have setup using Xpadder the analog stick for viewing, (mouse movement) I can't seem to get it to be smooth. It always seem blocky, like it is snapping a small grid and it very annoying. Anyway I have tried enabling smooth mouse in all my games but it still does not work very well. Any help will help stop the headaches. Thanks

Well, first of all, Xpadder has three mouse modes: Look/Camera, Cursor, and Spring. I can't honestly remember the difference between the first two (so if anyone recalls, I'd be interested too :)) but you could try switching to whichever one you aren't using, see if that makes a difference. (Or, if you have it on Spring - there's your explanation! ;))

Otherwise, you could try lowering emulation speed, if the problem is that it's simply too sensitive to allow you to make small adjustments.

Cool, I think that helped. I needed a bit more time to get used to this program but after about a day or two and several hours I have a rather good handle on it now. I had it set to look/camera and was getting a blocky or snappy cursor when I was playing most games, I switched it to spring and saw right away that that setting is NOT what I wanted (snaps mouse to center of screen after use) anyway I then put it to cursor and it seemed to be an improvement, maybe because I now have it set to cursor it reads the smooth mouse setting it my games? not sure but anyway it seems better not quite perfect but better. I needed it cause I was playing the original Half life with the 360 controller. I have to say this program was well worth the money cause now I can even use my 360 controller as my mouse for the desktop, I can't get multi button commands like CTRL/ALT?DEL to work but it works fine for watching or pausing movies and stuff like that. Thanks for the quick response.

"Look/Camera" has a direction filter and "Cursor" not (it will be automatically disabled). You can adjust this filter in the stick settings manually ("Diagonal Size").
