Using a controller and cant arrest? Read this

[The Loot 476]

It seems .95 only recognizes using the mouse to aim at suspects, so it's impossible to get it to work with a controller.

ControlMK (http://www.redcl0ud.com/controlmk/) does work, however.

This is my workaround:

"Z-Axis+" (LT) gets set to "Mouse_Right_Click", and "Button 4" (it seems CMK switched the shoulder buttons, so 4 is "LB") is set to "VK_E". Hopefully that will help anyone else using a controller, at least for arresting. It's a little finicky, you usually have to aim a few times, but using LB works fine.

Edit by LMS:

You can also hold the right mouse button while aiming, not as handy as the solution above though.

Recovered and pinned.

Thank you SO MUCH for bringing up this issue. I started to think i was the only one dealing with that issue. I hope there will be better controller support in the official version. THNX!

Glad I could help. Glad to hear official support is coming, since CMK is a little finicky.

Do I need to keep ControlMK open while playing or can it be closed?

And do these configs last until i disable them?

ControlMK does need to be open to work, and you can disable it by switching to another profile or exiting the program (check the system tray since I think it minimizes sometimes).

Ah, my controller doesn't work with GTA IV on PC anymore, eh, it couldn't load through and lags game, im not sure about you guys....hehe

LB still isn't working..

I'm getting the "You can arrest the person your aiming at with LB" when I aim with the Left Trigger at someone, but LB refuses to work.

Try re-aiming at them a few times, it can be finicky. If that doesn't work, use a text program to see if the button is set up correctly.

I just downloaded the last version, and it works for me.

Are you using a mouse?. I using the xbox 360 controller.It works fine with the other versions just not this one. There have been some changes with the control keys and I feel that some of them is not even listed. I hope there's another way around this besides the first one that was stated above.

[Makinofaman 19]

I forgot about using the mouse, I was able to do some arrests. It's amazing, so amazing!!.Lol. Big thanks to G17 Media for creating a terrific mod. I played it for about an hour before it crashed. One bug with the criminal performing a disappearing act when drop off at the station besides that everything is great. :thumbsup:

Are you sure Z-Axis+ is indeed LT?

[Harper 1,375]

Z-Axis+ is indeed LT.

I'm not sure if LB is Button 4 though

[Sniper296 1,712]

Y is 4

LB is 5

Is it possible to confirm if full controller support will be added with RC2? Right now, it just seems that the "E" key mapped to the "LB" button does not register at all, not just with arresting. For example, I cannot add a partner using a controller, or view the introduction, which both use the LB (E) button.
