Xbox 360 Controller Driver To Play Tomb Raider 2 On Steam

I've been playing tomb raider since the 90s, and back in the days we dont have any collectors edition or limited edition controller. So having this to my collection is very nice, and the controller works great with the game. I played Divinity: Original Sin on the thing without too much problem, though I still use my 360 controller for most games like Tomb Raider and such. $30 is still kind of a lot to plop on an unknown, but it's there.

Love the SC. On battlefront I am doing better than with the mouse.

However in assassins creed and now in Tomb raider I was really having trouble. The first main problem was that mouse is locked out when you use the game pad for stick, for example. This means using mouse joystick, which is fine for camera but no good for precision aiming.

However I discovered that if you activate giro with soft pull then you can set giro to mouse and it accepts the input even if you are using the left stick to move around. Not sure why this works but it does and made aiming with giro much much better.

It then occurred to me it may work for the right pad too. Which is does. So I press left trigger which enables giro for mouse aim and it also enables mouse on the right pad which again works even with the stick control input in parallel.

So I have mouse joystick for camera but proper mouse for giro and right pad when I am aiming. It works great and solved my problem I had with aiming when using mouse joystick.

I published the profile under brownie-uk7 user name for anyone that wants to give it a go. I'm sure there's room for some other improvements as the rest is standard pad config but will get round to that later.

We have just released the fourth PC patch for Shadow of the Tomb Raider, build 1.0.235.3. This patch focuses fixes a variety of issues, including some related to 100% completion, Dolby Atmos, and Steam Input.
This patch will be applied by Steam automatically when you next start the game. If your game does not update, please restart the Steam client. If your game does not start properly after downloading this update, please verify the integrity of your Steam game files.
Fixes included in this patch:
  • Fixed remaining issues preventing some players from achieving 100% completion.
  • Fixed collectible statistics in the UI being incorrect for some users.
  • Changes related to Steam Input:
    • It now defaults to a new setting 'Auto' which automatically turns On or Off Steam Input depending on whether a controller is enabled for use by Steam in the Steam settings.
    • When using Steam Input the game will now show appropriate icons for all supported controller types, just like when using native input.
  • Fixing some visual artifacts that rarely occurred when using SSCS.
  • Fixed a problem that caused Dolby Atmos to not activate correctly on certain PC setups.
  • Many smaller stability and functionality fixes.

While we expect this patch to be an improvement for everyone, if you do have trouble with this patch and prefer to stay on the old version we have made a Beta available on Steam, Build 234.2, that can be used to switch back to the previous version.
