How To Get A Wired Controller To Work On Mac For Fortnite
Hi everyone, I'm currently trying to hook up a wired Xbox 360 controller in order to play Team Fortress 2 on my Macbook Pro 13' (mid 2010). I'm currently running Lion, OS X 10.7.5 So, I've been scouring the internet for hours, just to find out how to get this stupid controller to work, all to no avail.
The latest method I've done can be found here: I have whatever the latest driver is on Tattie as well as the 360ControllerSource file downloaded. In regards to the driver, it installed without problem, and even shows up in my System Preferences, but when I click it no controller shows up. I am using a brand new, official Xbox 360 wired controller. I've uninstalled and reinstalled and restarted my computer countless times and tried every method I could find, but nothing is working; my computer will not detect the controller. It lights up briefly when initially plugged in, then after a second or two, it goes dark.
If there's any other info that would be helpful to know, please let me know; I'm really desperate to get this to work! Thanks, Brian.
I use a Razer Onza TE BF3 edition 360 controller and it works just fine on Mountain Lion & Mavericks. You should not need the controller driver if the game supports it. F1 2012 supports the controller without having to install the driver. If the game doesn't natively support it, then all you should need is the 360ControllerDriver.dmg from and after installing that it should just work. Check the settings in system preferences. The latest driver is 0.12 and the method in the thread has a link to 0.08. Are you sure you're on the latest one?
You could also try creating a new user account and installing the driver on that one. If all else fails, buy ML, create a USB Install Disk and clean install Mountain Lion onto the system if possible.
