So one day i was playing games on my Macbook with keyboard and mouse. It was fine and no problems occurred, but i just prefer a gamepad for playing (i don't know why). So i went down to the nearest GameStop and picked up this badboy:
I came back home, unboxed the controller and plugged it in. What happened... well nothing.
I spent hours and hours trying to get it work. I read forums, watched videos etc. found nothing. So what i had to do was to make drivers by myself, and now i'm providing this tutorial to help you with the same problem.
Requirments:
-Mac or Macbook
-Not working wired Xbox 360 controller (NOT PS3)
-Internet connection (if you're reading this i think you've it...)
-Tattieboogle 0.08 DOWNLOAD (Doesn't work with any other version)
-ControllerList file DOWNLOAD
-ControllerList Installer DOWNLOAD
-TextWrangler software DOWNLOAD
STEP-BY-STEP TUTORIAL
1. Make sure your controller doesn't work and is plugged.
2. Download all files above.
3. Install Tattieboogle driver software, just follow the on-screen instructions.
4. Go to System Preferences->Xbox 360 controller, plug your controller and try does it work.
5. If it didn't, install TextWrangler following the on-screen instructions.
6. Now open ControllerList with TextWrangler and copy any controller driver like this:
7. You can paste it below any </dict>, but i prefer to but it last, like in the picture above.
8. Now what you have to do is to go About This MAC->More Info...->System Report.
9. Find "USB" under hardware section.
10. Now if your controller is plugged in it will show up on right panel, click it.
11. What you need is to copy the productID and paste it to TextWrangler on here:
12. Then you need to copy the VendorID and paste it here:
13. You can now close system report and save ControllerList in TextWrangler. (you can also change the name of your controller in TextWrangler changing the text between
</dict> <key>....</key> <dict>
14. Then drag the ControllerList file over the ControllerList installer icon and wait.
15. Now go back to system preferences->Xbox 360 controllers and check does your controller work.
16. If your controller doesn't show up you need to Reboot your mac.
17. If you did everything like i told you it should look like this:
