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.

    • This high-end GEEKOM Mini IT12 (2025 Edition) PC has been slashed by $200

      By Steven P. · Posted

      This high-end GEEKOM Mini IT12 (2025 Edition) PC has been slashed by $200 by Steven Parker GEEKOM reached out to let us know of a discount it is running on its site in the U.S., where you can save $200 off the i7 model of Mini IT12 2025 Edition. That brings the already discounted price of $699 down to just $499; buying link below. Below are the full specifications of the variant on offer GEEKOM Mini IT12 (2025 Edition) Dimensions Size 117 x 112 x 45.6mm Weight 652g CPU Intel Core i7-1280P (14 Cores, 20 Threads, 24MB Cache, up to 4.80 GHz) Graphics Intel® Iris® Xe Graphics Memory 32 GB Dual-channel DDR4-3200 SODIMM; expandable up to 64GB Storage 1 TB x M.2 2280 PCIe Gen 4 x4 SSD, expandable up to 2TB 1 x M.2 2242 SATA SSD slot, expandable up to 1TB Operating System Windows 11 Pro Bluetooth Bluetooth® v5.2 Ethernet Intel® 10/100/1000/2500 Mbps RJ45 Ethernet Wireless LAN Intel® Wi-Fi 6E AX211 Kensington Lock Yes Adapter 19V power adapter, 90W, with geo-specific AC cord (IEC C5) I/O Ports 3 x USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports 1 x USB 2.0 port 2 x USB4 ports 1 x SD card reader 1 x 3.5 mm headphone jack 1 x 2.5GbE LAN port 2 x HDMI 2.0 ports 1 x DC jack 1 x Power button MSRP $699 (see below for discount price) You may remember that we reviewed the i7-1260P variant in 2023. Here are our initial impressions of the Mini IT12 at the time. Once you have the PC out of the cushioning inside the box and the foam removed, you are greeted with a Thank You envelope. Below that, after removing the cardboard "shelf," you can find the other components, such as the power lead, HDMI cable, VESA mount plate with a bag of screws, and the instruction manual. What’s In The Box 1 x Mini IT12 Mini PC 1 x VESA Mount 1 x Power Adapter 1 x HDMI Cable 1 x User Guide 1 x Thank You Card As you can see, one HDMI cable is included in the box. Since the port is not HDMI 2.1, you will need to consider purchasing a mini DisplayPort cable or a USB4 (Type-C) to DisplayPort cable to maximize the potential of the Iris Xe Graphics display options. In addition, GEEKOM offers a one-year full warranty on its products, and if needed, you can RMA or return them locally relative to your region (the U.S. has a U.S. warehouse, and the E.U. has a Germany warehouse). Buy the i7-1280P Mini IT12 (2025 Edition) for $499 (was $699) at GEEKOM U.S. Buy the i7-1280P Mini IT12 (2025 Edition) for $499 (was $699) at Amazon U.S. When checking out, use the $30 in-page coupon or NEOIT122025 coupon code. Best of all, the shipping is quick and free.

    • Microsoft explains how Xbox Ally runs a lightweight bloat-free Windows 11

      By George P · Posted

      When it comes to games specifically, sure, but until now the main focus has been on doing work. All you have to do is look at how hard they're pushing AI in the productivity space to see that they've got their enterprise users in mind 1st with gamers lower on the list. Now that should all change, at least for custom gaming devices like handhelds and even, I expect, custom mini-PCs that are like consoles you can put under your TV. The whole "Xbox PC" branding they had around the show says a lot IMO.
