Note: The modern x360ce project is currently maintained on GitHub by various developers following the original work by Takashi and other contributors.

Version 2.0.2.163 is strictly designed for 32-bit (x86) titles. If your game is a modern 64-bit application, version 2.0.2.163 will not function. You will need to upgrade to x360ce Version 3 (for 64-bit game-specific files) or utilize the modern Version 4 global virtual driver application.

Gaming on a PC offers unparalleled flexibility, but matching older or non-standard controllers with modern titles can be a frustrating challenge. Many modern PC games exclusively support XInput, the protocol used by Xbox controllers. If you are using an older DirectInput gamepad, a generic USB controller, or a PlayStation dual-shock controller, your games might fail to recognize your device entirely. Note: The modern x360ce project is currently maintained

Some modern games recognize both your raw DirectInput controller and the emulated XInput controller at the same time. This causes one button press to register twice. Open x360ce.exe . Navigate to the tab. Locate the Hook Mode settings.

While version 163 was stable, it had specific limitations that led to the development of the 3.x branch: If your game is a modern 64-bit application, version 2

Version 2.0.2.163 is a legacy standalone executable ( x360ce.exe ) that translates DirectInput calls into XInput commands. Unlike modern versions of x360ce that run as a global virtual device driver in the background, this older version operates on a per-game basis.

If your game is 64-bit, you must switch to a 64-bit version of the x360ce executable or use the modern x360ce virtual driver application.

Some older titles (e.g., Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition , Burnout Paradise original release, Fallout: New Vegas ) have hardcoded checks that crash with x360ce v4.x. Version 2.0.2.163’s simpler injection method bypasses these checks more reliably.
