I shot my eye out

Minor complaint about Skyrim: My controller doesn’t work. I’m using some off-brand PS2 to USB controller that registers my leftover PS2 controller as a usable gamepad. Works wonders on everything except for Skyrim. Why? You can program a PC port of a game but you can’t have it recognize a standard Windows 7 compatible Gamepad!?

Update: Turns out there’s a game controller emulator called xbox360ce. Google that, copy and run the program from the Skyrim directory. It’ll create a pair of settings files that will configure a standard controller to resemble an xbox360 controller….. which is a standard controller. Why it doesn’t just use the Windows 7 game controller settings is beyond me.
