It seemed that there are a few people floating about having problems with the Xbox 360 controller for Windows, especially a couple on GTA: San Andreas (including me)

However, I finally accomplished a full map of all the practical controls in the SAAC (San Andreas Advanced Control)

This very useful tool is available for dowload through GTAGaming.com (San Andreas Advanced Control v1.2)

The config file I have created is attatched at the bottom of the post...

The controls are as follows....

Please Note: The A Button is SPRINT while on foot.

On Foot...

In Vehicle...

Follow the link to the attatched file "presets.txt" below, copy and paste all the text on the page into a new notepad document then save the file as "PRESETS.INI" in the SAME FOLDER that you save the .exe application for the SAAC tool, run SAAC along side San Andreas in the background each time you play, and don't forget to select the XBOX 360 controller configuration in the list at the bottom, and save any changes you make!

Enjoy!

Is there anyway to fix the wired 360 left thumbstick??? I didnt everthing right but the left stick moves my character even when im not and it wont stop only does it with San Andreas too... Realling F-in annoying.

It's called "controller drift", and it's a pain in the arse

It's a bit hard to explain from memory, but you need to take the controller apart, and pull the plastic part of the thumbstick off.

You will see these thin bits of metal that arch over the rods. (not using the right words there, I'm sure, but hopefully when you look at it, you'll know what I mean)

Anyway, you need to bend that bit of metal (very slightly) so that it forces the thumbstick back into the correct default position.

It will probably take a bit of trial and error, but it worked great for me.

OK, here you see somebody has used a rubber band to do the same thing...

you can see the bit of metal/copper I was talking about.

I'd say my way was better, because I don't see that rubber band lasting very long.

Old thread, but I'm going to answer you anyway. Most of these programs come with a way to change the "Dead Zone" of the sticks. Just make the dead zone a little bigger and you shouldn't have a problem anymore.

    • Steam overlay's FPS counter gets major upgrade to show CPU and VRAM usage, temps, and more

      By dustojnikhummer · Posted

      I don't think RTSS can show the real framerate. In fact, this is the first time I have ever heard about anything showing it.

      Yeah, Deck's overlay has CPU temps. Maybe they don't want to rely on external dlls to provide CPU temperature graphs on all machines? From my experience with Rivatuner it can be annoying to select the correct CPU temperature sensor.

      Why would I be praising Microsoft? You do realize I'm well aware the Gamebar is a stinking pile of crap and has been for years, right? Or are you one of those "if you don't critique something at every turn you area clearly a fanboy" people? Yes, MangoHUD is built into SteamOS's Big Picture mode, and up until a few weeks ago, SteamOS was exclusive to... the Steam Deck... for 3 years. Yet you were talking about it as if you didn't need to set it up yourself, like it was built into other distributions, which it wasn't. So if we ignore the real/fake framerate feature, it's really not much different than me setting up my Rivatuner/HWInfo overlay, is it? Valve had the option of building MangoHUD into Steam, like they are doing it now, for 3 years. So let's not pretend Windows hasn't had a basic way to display your framerate built in, keeping well aware how crap it actually is. And I'm not even counting your GPU driver company, because Nvidia, AMD and Intel have their own (somehow even worse than GameBar) overlays. And of course they won't tell you fake/real framerate, why would Nvidia nor AMD want to tell you? That is absolutely a +1 on Valve.
    • End of an era? Kubuntu is removing default support for X11 in new installs

      As much as I like the push towards Wayland (is Gnome still bickering about window decorations and "you are doing it wrong"ing rest of the industry?) but as an admin, the fact that the FreeRDP (because VNC is dead) implementation is not functional yet is really annoying, as that is what RHEL10, and Debian13, will be stuck with for the next 3-8 years.
