Hello everyone. I was thinking about playing TNM with an Xbox controller, as you may or may not have guessed from the title. Has anybody played it with any pad or are we all believers in the traditional old keyboard and mouse? If anyone can help me set it up from scratch that would be great!
I'm sure this has been said countless times but I just want to say good work on the game. Recent games have been either too simple or unnecessarily complicated. TNM hits a sweet little balance that doesn't ask too much of a player yet offers everything. I hope you guys crank out a game each decade from now.

Re: TNM With Xbox Controller
Wouldn't you need an X360? I think they're for use with Windows 7 and Vista though. That's about as much as I know.....sorry.

Thanks for dropping by, Kyd!
To be honest, I have absolutely no clue how to setup Deus Ex to work with an X-Box controller. Maybe there's some kind of third party program that will tell you how the button presses are being mapped so you can change them.

Re: TNM With Xbox Controller
There's a program called JoyToKey. Basically what it does is convert gamepad input into mouse\keyboard input, so you can map all your gamepad buttons into keyboard buttons.
However, I don't think there're enough buttons on the Xbox controller to make TNM fully playable (augs, menues, plus basic control input), but you may want to play with a handicap, so just try and see what suits you best.

Thanks I'll look into that JoyToKey once the holidays are over. As far as I remember it's possible to assign one or more keys as a toggle button, so there should be enough buttons in total to play TNM, even if it is a bit tricky at first.

Re: TNM With Xbox Controller
Hey there! Playing TNM with an Xbox controller can truly transform the gaming experience. While some prefer the traditional keyboard and mouse, a controller can offer a whole new level of immersion, especially for specific games.
Setting it up usually involves connecting the controller to your PC and configuring the controls within the game settings. There are fantastic online tutorials that walk you through this process step by step.
By the way, the Xbox 360 Controller Dual Shock, which I purchased from shoppersstop.pk, has been an absolute gem for me! It's comfortable, responsive, and has significantly enhanced my gaming experience. Just a heads-up, shoppersstop.pk is a Pakistan-based online shopping platform. Fellow Pakistani gamers interested in using a controller might find it worth exploring!
