Xbox Guitar in PCSX2


Blackdog

Recommended Posts

Hello! First of all my thanks to the Launchbox staff for all the help I have received thus far.

My problem is I am running Guitar Hero and Rock Band for the PS2 using the PCSX2 emulator. It runs everything fine except for my controllers? It see's my Logitech Dual Action, and my Guitar  (XBox Wireless Receiver) in Lily Pad 0.11.0, but it will not let me assign buttons or use them in game. It will only assign keyboard commands.


If anyone can give me a clue I would appreciate it.

Windows 10,  Core I7 7700K, 16GB ram.

Well I got my logitech controller working, my own fault. Adjusted the settings and no problem assigning buttons etc. Guitar still no luck. If anyone knows how to get the Xbox guitars working in PCSX2 I would like to hear about it. If it can't be done I would like to know as well so I am not wasting my time.

Again thanks.

Have you tried the PCSX2 forums ?

Just as a thought though does Windows recognize the guitar as a controller and see it activating buttons  in the control panel for controllers ?

No I have not. Did not even think of it. Thanks I will try the PCSX2 forums.

I have tried this myself in the past, i wanted to play Guitar Hero Metallica on PCSX2 using my old xbox 360 guitar hero controller. I never could get it to work. The guitar is recognised just fine in windows using the xbox 360 wireless adapter i have, but i could never get it working in PCSX2, so i ended up getting the windows version of Guitar Hero 3 and playing that. If you manage to get this working @Blackdog can you let us know how (not that i could probably play it now after spending 2 years using the newer guitar hero live controller on PS4).

Well I got it working but it's strange. I had an old GH 3 guitar and for some reason it did let me configure the buttons with it. I was then able to use my guitar hero 5 controls. The problem is I have to use my gamepad up until  the song starts at which time the guitar works. I still have the "microphone" problem for rock band and Guitar hero 5, but that is a whole other can of worms.
