Cannot get Rayman 3 to work with Windows 7

Post by bocikt »

I cannot get xpadder to work with Rayman 3. I have started xpadder as the administrator. I can see my keystrokes when I use notepad. I have seen videos of people playing Rayman 3 with xpadder. What am I doing wrong? Is it because I am running Windows 7. By the way, my controller is an XBox 360 wired controller.

I did not work. I even started xpadder as the administrator (though I am already the admin). Any other suggestions?

have you mapped the correct controls listed in rayman 3 to xpadder?

Yes. I check it by going to notepad and pressing every button. Everything works well in notepad. For example, the first menu in rayman requires up and down arrows which I have maped to the left stick. It works in Notepad, but not in Rayman.

By default Xpadder minimizes to the notification area/system tray when you click the close button. To fully close Xpadder you must right click the tray icon and choose "Close".

Then try running as administrator.

Thanks to all. I got it to work. The key was to reboot my machine. Once I did that... everything started working.
