XPadder & GameEx

[stuartc88]

Hey Guys,

Total newbie (and relative computer novice) here so apologise if this has been asked and answered previously.

Have GameEx up and running well. Using just a standard USB gamepad control and was pleased when simply plugging it in allowed me to navigate the gameEx menu and play the games without any great issues. (I still cant leave / escape a game without hitting the ESC keyboard button but beyond that minor annoyance - otherwise all good).

I have however added two programs to my "More Games & Programs" tab - Ultrastar Deluxe and a preferred Digital Jukebox version. These were initally controlled just via the keyboard however having read a little on here about xpadder I decided to give it a go. Low and behold I had some success (sort of).

Effectively now I have mapped the keys and added the preferred joystick configuration to the respective Ultrastar and Jukebox folders and when I open these directly from there - they can be controlled perfectly via the xpadder configured controller.

Unfortunately however when I access these programs via GameEx and the "More Games & Programs" tab I have no joy and the gamepad doesn't work at all.

If anyone has any suggestions how I could get my gamepad to work in these programs when accessed via GameEx it would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers guys.

Ill let others answer about xpadder, but gameex does have a default combo for exiting games with a gamepad:

Buttons 1,4,5,6 with Left-Up

Cheers Tom - that totally fixed that issue. Heres to hoping the other one is equally simple.
