If you cannot find the folder, do try to locate the file "SFTK.exe" and place the files in the same folder, that should do the trick.

Yes, another game to get excited about, if you are a fan of Street Fighter and Tekken... As a first generation console gamer, I always look forward to Capcom games, so you game fighting arcade fans should have a look at this. I'll sure enjoy it with my Rumblepad2...

This is another quite awaited game, for the more mature audience, and all long term Resident Evil fans, so hope it live up to the expectations, which it should, Capcom usually never fails to deliver... This is one title I'll enjoy...

Lost Planet 2

Capcom has always managed to make fairly interesting games to play, and this looks to be no exception, in order to get your game pad working as a proper xbox 360 controller, follow the instructions...

Download the needed files from :

http://rapidshare.com/files/343322681/xbox360cemu.v.3.0.rar

and unpack it to the installation directory...

\Program Files\CAPCOM\LOST PLANET 2\

Make sure the files included are :

dinput8.dll
xbox360cemu.ini
xinput1_3.dll
xinput9_1_0.dll

Now you can fully enjoy the game with your logitech rumblepad 2 or dual action gamepad. I'm now gonna give this game a go, to see if it lives up to the expectations...

Edit: This game feels a bit stiff when playing, if you try you'll know what I mean, got great cut scenes between the missions, but once in a mission it's lacking something... Not my kind of game, so do give it a try in the shop, before you buy it.

Dead Rising 2

Finally this game arrives, and in order for you to get Dead Rising 2 working with your logitech rumblepad 2 or dual action game pad you just need to download and copy the following files into the installation directory as follows...

http://rapidshare.com/files/422778312/x360ce.vibmod.3.1.4.1.rar

C:\Program Files\Capcom\Dead Rising 2

x360ce.ini
xinput1_3.dll
XInputTest.exe

Btw, I only found it to work with 3.1.4.1, and no other older version, Now you can enjoy this with fill xbox 360 controller support, as it was made to enjoy... Let's go and slash zombies...

Dark Void

I found that for Dark Void, you need to use the old xinput3 xbox 360 joypad emulator.

\Program Files\CAPCOM\DARK VOID\nativePC\Binaries\

dinput8.dll
xbox360cemu.ini
xinput1_3.dll
xinput9_1_0.dll
XInputTest.exe

if you haven't got em, you may download from :

http://rapidshare.com/files/249164419/xinputemu3.0.zip

This is not a to bad game, after 40 hours of avatar, it's time to move onto something new, and this seems to be it. fairly good story, a bit kid friendly (older kids). you'll enjoy it... I usually have higher expectations on capcom games. Hopefully it might get better as the game progress, now I'm only an hour into the game...

Resident Evil 5

Finally it's here for the PC, I do hope the controller support is working fine.

Let ya know when I get it tested out. As my controller broke down, before I got a chance to try this one out. Talk about bad luck. Now I gotta wait until I get it replaced. Only a few months old, I'm getting less and less confident in Logitech, same stuff happened to a few of my keyboards as well (newer ones, while the old stuff just keep ticking).

1. If you haven't you should modify the registry to alter the name of your controller to say "XBOX 360 Controller for Windows".

Then download :

http://rapidshare.com/files/249164419/xinputemu3.0.zip

Extract and copy the following files into the game directory :

xbox360cemu.ini
xinput1_3.dll
xinput9_1_0.dll

This is a truly great game, will be playing this one to the end. Currently I'm stuck in batman.

Bionic Commando

Bionic Commando features a hero with a grappling hook arm used to navigate levels, to take out enemies, rappel down sheer surfaces, and more.

We'll see if this has native rumblepad support or if the xbox360 emulation will work fine, hopefully it's as good as devil may cry.

Once I managed to install the game, I could not get it working with the joypad emulation, this is a bit sad, as this game really needs to be played with a pad, so I did a config for xpadder, and this will have to do for now. I have just played it a bit, and it seems to be quite an ok game. I'll give it a 7 out of 10 so far, edit (9 out of 10 after doing some more playing and getting further into the game, I would have given it 10 if it had been fully supporting the rumblepad 2). We'll see if that changes once I get a bit more into the game.

To get it working with your rumblepad 2, you need to do the following.

http://rapidshare.com/files/249164419/xinputemu3.0.zip

Program Files/CAPCOM/Bionic Commando/Bionic Commando/

xbox360cemu.ini
xinput1_3.dll
xinput9_1_0.dll
XInputTest.exe

Then start the game, goto config controllers. bind the keys to the gamepad.

Then I use xpadder to map mouse, left/right mouse button, arrow keys, escape and enter.

This works fine, you can map all keys, except "Adrenaline".

Street Fighter IV

Everything that made the legendary Street Fighter II a hit acround the world returns in Street Fighter IV. Favorite classic characters, such as Ryu, Ken, and Chun-Li return along with new characters, including Crimson Viper, Abel, El Fuerte, and Rufus. Characters and environments appear in stylized 3D, while the classic 2D gameplay remains with the addition of new moves such as the revenge-fueled .Ultra Combo. system and Focus Attacks. An all-new Street Fighter is here and the real challenge starts now.

Everything may first seem ok and you think it's no need to use the emulation files, as the game works out of the box with a joypad, but all the buttons are wrong, so if you want it all the way it's suposed to be you need to copy the following into the game directory.

You may download the files from :

http://rapidshare.com/files/249164419/xinputemu3.0.zip

Program Files/CAPCOM/STREETFIGHTERIV/

dinput8.dll
xbox360cemu.ini
xinput1_3.dll
xinput9_1_0.dll
XInputTest.exe

And you will notice how the game is suposed to be played. It's a great game for street fighter fans, but not much for the others. Recently there was a release of a few great games, so if your not a street fighter lover, you'll probably pass on this one, but since it adds the live experience with multiplayer, it have something that other versions did not. Might be fun to do some live fighting against real oponents rather than the computer controlled ones. I'll give this a 7 out of 10, for good gameplay and visual graphics, honestly I can not see much difference between default setup, and selecting maxed pc settings, except that for me the framerate drops a bit.

Released : 30 June 2009

Devil May Cry 4

This is a tricky one, and you may think it's fine using the controller to play the game without any emulation, but it's not. It wont give you the very smooth movement unless you use the emulation. Basically any game that you have to switch mode on the controller to get it to work, will not provide a good game play.

Place the files in :

Program Files/CAPCOM/DEVILMAYCRY4

dinput8.dll
xbox360cemu.ini
xinput1_3.dll

The game itself is outstanding, I'm going to pick up Devil May Cry 3 as well, just because this game is such amazing. I've only completed the first edition on the PS2. This is one of those games you simply cant miss.
