You need to install the Logitech Profiler and make a profile for Amnesia. You also have to make sure the controller is in DirectInput mode. Sometimes the loading screen prevents the profiler from working, but giving the game focus again tends to resolve that issue.

well for sure i tried that but am asking anything special i should do beside do the Logitech profiler ?

because it did not work with that ...

I have the same controller as you do and it works for me with the Logitech Profiler, even for the Penumbra series.

You probably have the Profiler set to load a persistent profile on start. What you want to have it do is load profiles automatically based on the game that gets loaded. Go to Options > Global Profiler Settings and under Type of profile to apply make sure Apply profiles to games automatically is selected.

Amnesia itself does not have controller support, so using the Logitech Profiler is the only (or best) way to get your Logitech controller to work in Amnesia.

ok cool one more thing shall i launch the game from the Profiler or from it self and keep the profiler on ?


RE: Gamepads?? works with Amnesia ?? - Your Computer - 11-16-2011

Doesn't matter where, but you get better chance of working if you launch it from the Profiler.

and shall i fix the input control from the keyboard into the gamepad in Amnesia or no need?

thanks allot for the help .

You only need to set up the profile in the Profiler. The Profiler allows you to attach whatever keyboard key to whatever gamepad button, and it allows you to set the mouse to the joysticks.

I know what you need.
It's called Xpadder.

In short: this program lets you do everything with a controller that you can do with a mouse and keyboard.
It is invented for gaming but can also be used for normal PC use, such as surfing for example.

Back in the day, I bought myself wireless Xbox 360 controller for PC gaming and had problems with pretty much all of the older games, but after Googling around I stumpled across this little program and bought it. Haven't regret that purchase.
