Xbox One controller working on PC due to modder

4.7
A tinkerer, Lucas Assis, has developed a tool and posted a video detailing how he was able to enable a Xbox One controller to function properly on a PC. Lucas has stated that he intends to make a Mac and Linux version available sometime in the future. This solution should only be seen as a stopgap until Microsoft officially provides drivers for the Xbox One controller on PC.

Anyone keen on trying the tool out will need to download this RAR file and follow the steps shown in the video.

It works, and it works great, but it's not really that easy to install. It involves installing another two programs, both which are open-source and adware free.Lucas Assis


Anyone who wants to install this workaround will need to download this file and watch the video below for complete instructions.


Official support from Microsoft for the Xbox One controller on PC is slated to be released sometime in 2014.

I Won't be using it often but i will definitely use it on some FPS games.


thats like the opposite of what you want to do, fps games are best with mouse and keyboard.
