FIFA 2005 Controls and Gamepads Thread

[Frost]

I have a Logitech Dual Action Controller.

Does anybody know how to pass/lob the ball into a free area so the striker can run to the ball. The CPU always uses it.

And how can I lob the ball over the keeper with my controller.

Thanks.

Cya !

I don't have fifa 2004 but I'd like to change buttons on my gamepad to main own, eg. sprint from R2 to R1, shot from "X" to "[]" etc.

I hope it's just few small files

CAn someone send me the flder too. Cause I don't have FIFA2004. i'm using the Sony Dual Shock2 Controller via a PS to PC converter. But the button mapping too weird for my liking.

ok

simply find your controller in this directory in regedit



HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\MediaProperties\PrivateProperties\Joystick\OEM




then rename it to one of the pads supported in the read me

for example mine is a ps2 pad so i renamed
Logitech DualAction USB under OEMNAME

 

[cajun3346]

i can tell you about UNsupported gamepads:

SmartJoy PS2 to USB....doesn't work.

of course.

Yes, i'm using WinXP. And what do you mean 'waht driver name' ?

 

[bositman]

If you go to the control panel of windows and to the game devices, it specifies a name for every attached game device on the pc. What does it write for the pad?

I have Logitech Rumblepad gamepad, can somebody tell me what the numbers in the config.dat file means? Also can anybody tell me what the default controls for fifa2005 on the rumble pad are?
Maybe a default keymap would be most helpful, u know like, A-slidetacke, B-pass, C-shoot etc. Does the right analog stick work for anybody? I need help in using this controller to play the demo. Thanks in advance

Where can I find drivers/sofware for USB Controller?

I am trying to use my PS and PS2 controllers.

They kind of work and are listed as Dual PSX-USB Adaptor.

Adaptor can be found here:
http://www.play.com/play247.asp?pa=stts3&page=title&r=PC&title=114167

The problems are

1) The dualshock is constantly buzzing as soon as Fifa 2005 is launched. And

2) Both Controller 1 and 2 must be connected or the menu just keeps on scrolling.

If anyone has a similar device to the above do they know any links to drivers or third party software?

If so please post

Thanks

Fifa 2004 didn't like my Dual Analog 2... I don't know if it's because it uses the Generic Windows XP drivers... sometimes it's detected as a Dual Analog 3 maybe it'll work with Fifa 2005.

Dual Action's calibration issue has been solved in later versions of the pad according to Logitech... but I won't buy another one that's for sure and I don't have the proof of purchase for this one.

I've owned several and had calibration issues for a long time.. with all gamepads.. tested on several systems..

Avoid this gamepad like the plague everyone


If you don't believe me.. go to logitechs user forums... 50% of all their complaints are about these gamepads..

They are the reason i'm looking for an alternative in the first place.

You have been warned!

I've used the Logitech Dual Action gamepad without experiencing any problems with any games - I think it is the best gamepad for all EA Sports games because it is the controller that the games are primarily designed for.
