This driver adds support to Mac OS X for the official Microsoft Xbox 360 wired controller. Along with all the buttons, both analog sticks, the analog triggers and the D-pad, it implements Force Feedback support using the rumble motors as well. As the driver is open source, it is also possible to see an example of how to communicate with the driver directly, to control the LEDs as well as bypass the Force Feedback functionality for direct rumble motor control. Third party controllers should also be supported, but these must be added manually to the driver's list of supported devices. Currently this includes the official controller and the DOA4 stick controller.
.12 will work with Mavericks not so much with Yosemite

None what so ever.

Mycombs
Pros
Works instantly, so setup required after installation and restart
Cons
It works like an extension, and there's no indication the program is running, so it's confusing to know if it installed or not
Summary
I was confused after installing and restarting. There's no "application" But I started Borderlands 2, with my Rock Candy brand XBOX controller, and everything just worked!
Where is the file?!!!!

Pros
Lots of promises, many positive reviews
Cons
There are no clear instructions and I am unable to find the file.
The device will not be acknowledged by the system OSX 10.5.8
Summary
The controller flashes a second and nothing else happens, I can't find the file name to open it manually, no instructions along with the program.

mrtn242

peerez93
Pros
the software downloaded.
Cons
it hasn't recognized my controller
Summary
i have a 3rd party generic gamestop controller and it hasn't recognized it yet. is there something that i'm doing wrong?
Hmm... Is it me or a bug??
bpfps
Pros
As far as I can tell, the gamepad drivers work well, and the controller is detected in settings.
Cons
Tried to use in Team Fortress 2 for mac, but sadly, the controller does not do anything. I have checked enable gamepad, which you can't if it isn't detected. It must therefore have been detected, but is nonresponsive.
Summary
Could be a bug, could be functionality with tf2, but the driver appears to work. You might as well try it.
Download and go!

Pros
Cons
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />.......a driver to let me use a GOOD controller. Very early yet but very useful, new option for "D-pad as buttons" is a godsend, now I can use it in Halo for directions. Rumble function works where it's capable but is no means comprehensive yet.
In summary, will be great oneday but it's usable and functional now.
Well done!
