Hey.

Recently picked this game up, and have hit a brick wall with the controls: the (effectively) X & Y buttons on my controller do absolutely nothing in-game, which by default are shoot and melee. Taunt doesn't work on the button it's listed as (M), but does work on Q with default controls.

I've done all the things recommended online: put the xbox 360 controller values into dmc3se.ini, put in the widescreen patch, but I seem to be one of few people to have this kind of problem.

I'm using a PS3 controller through an Xinput wrapper that makes it appear as a 360 gamepad, and it's worked for everything I've put it through until now - and it still seems to be working on some level as I can "change" the controls in the menus to "X & Y", and Y takes me backwards in menus... so the game can see input from there.

Everything else works. I can run around, jump, dash, lock on, etc..

I'm hoping as a fan site someone has run into the issue and has a solution, because it's particularly annoying and renders the game effectively unplayable!

So, can anyone help me out?
 
Using an actual 360 gamepad, I tried to configure it to my liking and the trigger buttons wouldn't work. It might just be the buggy port doing that. =/ Bummer.
