Well, for the analog triggers the reason could be that they share one axis. This is the case fore most not xbox360 controller.
But that with the buttons is strange. Try to press two buttons with the Xpadder main window open, booth should become green in Xpadder.

You can try this with the triggers too, but open their settings for it (by clicking on the tool symbol near the right trigger).
Press first one trigger completely and then the other. If you see the axis of the first trigger moving back while pressing the other, you have this problem. So you simply cannot press both triggers at the same time with this controller.

I tried the trigger thing with my 360 controller and when i hold the left trigger then press the right trigger the left trigger sensitivity bar goes back left.


it does this with all 3 of my x box 360 controllers so where does the problem lay?

The Xbox360pad has individual axes for the triggers.
I guess you have deactivated the setting "Use Xinput (if installed)" in Xpadder. Alternatively you have problem with your DirectX installation.

Doubleclick on the tab of your xbox360pad to open it's properties. You should see under Xinput compatible "not installed". If it is like that, yes.

Search for a download of DirectX11 and reinstall it, this should solve the problem.

Xbox 360 Compatible: No :?:
This looks for me like a driver problem. Do you have the original drivers installed or the XBCD drivers?

The drivers installed automatically with it being windows 7, bloody weird cause it works fine with every single x box 360 controller game i have.

What axis are the triggers set to in your set-up? mine are Z+ and Z-

Then they are the original Microsoft drivers. If it works problem with games that only support the Xbox360pad, Xinput has to work. :?
Can I have some examples for such game you are using?

I have Rx and Ry, but the difference is that I have a wire Xbox360pad and you have a wireless one.
You problem is definitely that Xpadder doesn't detect that your controller supports Xinput or that it does not work.

Are there any not necessary files in the folder with the Xpadder.exe (except Xpadder.exe, Xpadder.ini, Controller Layouts, Profiles and eventually Controller Images), especially an "xinput1_3.dll"?

Yes, like I said the xinput1_3.dll.
How did it get there? Delete it! :lol:

It causes that Xpadder cannot detect Xinput anymore. That works by the way also with games that support Xinput only (by placing it also in the folder with their .exe), so you could use Xpadder instead of the native gamepad support.

Did you use a tool called Xbox 360 Controller Emulator or X360ce. This file should be from this tool since I guess that a normal xinput1_3.dll should not cause that.
