It took me ages to get my 360 controller working 100% for this game, and required my going to Japan to accomplish it. Install a custom set of actually-configurable drivers from here to get a working controller. Setting the right stick to Z-axis/Z-rotation, which maps to Joystick 2 x/y in game, finally got shit to work. I don't think there's much interest for X3 on Caltrops, but this will probably work well for other pre-DX10 games that are using DirectInput instead of the newer GFWL-compatible XInput.

I had also tried some input remappers that bound the analog stick to keyboard commands, but they were completely ignored inside the game.

I heard that one of them, X2 I think, was incredibly buggy. And that stopped me from trying any of the others, which is sad, but it seems like there is another glorious failure in the field of Elite clone every month, so it's hard to get wrapped up in any particular game.

How do you like it?

the dark and gritty...Ice Cream Jonsey!

Is there an actual reunion in the game? Just curious. NT by Mysterio 01/18/2011, 11:56am PST NEW

I just tried trading. Ignore everything I said previously. NT by Future post by Entropy Stew 01/18/2011, 5:12pm PST NEW

Also: I miss Freelancer. It's too bad they didn't do more with the Elite aspects by Entropy Stew 01/18/2011, 8:25pm PST NEW
