Gamepad w/ analogue controls in Unity, Mac OS X
Hi! I've been developing a game in Unity on Mac OS X, using a USB Microsoft XBOX 360 pad for PC for controls. This recently packed up and I've bought a generic USB Gamepad that resembles a Playstation Dual Shock controller.
The problem is that I'm unable to get a reading from the analogue sticks of the pad in any of the axis readings in the input manager (whether it be X, Y, Axis 3, 4, 5,...). I've tried the controller in a piece of third party software called USB Overdrive and the axis are recognised by the O/S, but not by Unity.
What can I do to make the axis register in Unity?`
I'm grateful for any input/ideas!
don't have an answer to that, but I am successfully using the logitech dual pad: http://www.logitech.com/en-us/ga$$anonymous$$g/controllers/devices/288
Could you give a reference of your device?

I'm using a driver for my MacBook. You can download it here:

I use a Logitech F510 gamepad for developing on OS X. It works without drivers when the switch underneath is set to "D" mode (i.e. DInput as opposed to XInput mode where it then acts the same as a 360 pad and so would also need the TattieBogle drivers).
Note for these F-series gamepads to work driverless in a standalone OS X build though, you have to build in 32-bit, as the 64-bit OS X builds don't seem to detect controllers (this applies to Logitech pads as of Unity 4.5.2, though it was apparently fixed for 360 (XInput) pads using TattieBogle in 4.5)
