Those will work with Sonic Adventure 2, but how do we get the game to actually use the controller? Now, move the generated xinput1_3.dll and x360ce.ini into Sonic Adventure 2's root folder. Depending on your controller, it will quickly find a config for you that works out of the box. It will probably ask to search the web for configurations, go ahead and let it search. Should be the first zip file listed extract that exe file somewhere convenient (I just put it in steamapps/common/Sonic Adventure 2/x360ce/).Ĭonnect your controller, then open up x360ce. We're actually going to use the same solution that is needed for Windows users who are using gamepads other than the Xbox 360 controller, but this is needed even if you're using a 360 controller on Wine. But wait, what about my controller? This game uses XInput, so I can't use my controller! I gotta go fast, and that ain't happenin' on a keyboard. This should allow you to use the Launcher.exe and create a config, then launch the game. Sonic Adventure 2's installscript.vdf actually installs DirectX, but let's use d3dx9 for the sake of consistency/completion. On top of Steam's requirements, you're going to need to install these via winetricks: Turns out it's a pretty simple process to get it running. But oh no, it doesn't run! What's up with that? Okay, so you've got Sonic Adventure 2 installed on Steam in a clean Wine prefix.
