Silent Hill, Using Xbox 360 Pad?

[Elliot B.]

How do I use the Xbox 360 pad in Silent Hill? I can't see an option anywhere.

EDIT: Found it...

(4)--Enabling Use of a Gamepad--

It's not possible to configure a gamepad through the game launcher, due to the unknown coding

of the emulator's gamepad features. However, you can still use one if you configure it

using the emulator itself (ePSXe.exe).

First, make sure you enable the use of external control configuring. To do this, run the game

launcher, go to "Controls", then select the option labeled "Use External Configuration". What

this does is disables the integrated control configuration system, and allows another program

(such as the emulator) to configure the controls instead.

Now that an outside program can be used, run the emulator. You can do this by opening the

"ePSXe.exe" file, which is located in your Silent Hill directory. Then click "Config", and then

go to "Game Pad", and click "Pad 1". This is where you will map the controls. Since this is a

Playstation emulator, it shows a Playstation gamepad.

Here's what each button on the gamepad does:

Up = Walk Forward

Down = Walk Backward

Left = Turn Left

Right = Turn Right

Cross (X) = Action \ Fire Weapon \ Use

Square = Run

Triangle = View Map \ Exit Menu Screens

Circle = Turn On or Off Flashlight \ Exit Menu Screens

L1 = Look Around

L2 = Sidestep Left

R1 = Raise Weapon

R2 = Sidestep Right

Start = Pause Game \ Skip Movie Scenes

Select = Access Inventory

Now you can configure the use of a gamepad.
