Now off to enjoy this amazing game... With my Logitech Gamepad...

If you still have problems, you might need to :

1. Find out the name of your gamepad in the control panel (Game Controllers), for me it was "Logitech RumblePad 2 USB".
2. Open Regedit, hit CTRL-F and type the name of your gamepad. It should find something like :

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\MediaProperties\PrivateProperties\Joystick\OEM\VID_046D&PID_C218
OEMName REG_SZ Logitech RumblePad 2 USB

3. Select Modify and enter "XBOX 360 Controller for Windows" (without the ").

You may also check that the VID & PID is matching your gamepad in the x360ce.ini file.

The PID & VID should be found as above in the KEY.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\MediaProperties\PrivateProperties\Joystick\OEM\VID_046D&PID_C218
OEMName REG_SZ Logitech RumblePad 2 USB

VID=0x046D #controller VID
PID=0xC216 #controller PID

Now it should work ok for you, as for vibration, it might work or not depending on your pad drivers.
