iw4x-client VS Gopher360

MW2 (2009), AW, Ghosts For those looking for the good old days of MW2, and I guess if you wanna play Ghosts or AW, X-Labs has you covered. Like CoD4X, these games include new maps & guns. The community on MW2 is much healthier than Cod4 and you will be able to find games a lot more often. I do not own AW or Ghosts so i can not attest to how populated they are on a regular basis. Here's a link to the X-Labs client: https://xlabs.dev Here's a tutorial video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_6QlaLathQ8

Take a look at the IW*X series if you like Plutonium: https://xlabs.dev/

Or if you're just trying to launch with the .exe and not the xlabs launcher just download this dll and throw it into your game folder and it should work after that https://github.com/XLabsProject/iw4x-client/releases

- PC is the second most active, and partly because of iw4x. IW4x is an open source project that allows you to set up your own dedicated servers with modifications for Modern Warfare 2 on top of a decentralized network. Main issue is the lack of vanilla lobbies and possible ping (it's region based). You can of course also play it on Steam but beware of hackers (there is an RCE exploit sadly but the patch is available in this sub's Discord) and of lack of support. However for Australians the steam version is safe to play via http://www.dedigamer.com/ These are dedicated servers hosted by a top bloke who's reverse engineered the game. It improves the experience as well as having great connection for anyone on the continent. Join the Discord above as there is a PC channel too.

After some digging around and searching for "how to use the xbox controller as a keyboard and mouse" instead of how to use the controller with mtgo, I found an app called Gopher360 (https://github.com/Tylemagne/Gopher360). It requires you to know the windows hexadecimal value for key presses, which you can set in the INI file for Gopher360. Those can be found here https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/inputdev/virtual-key-codes

I hope some people find this useful, but I found a freeware utility called Gopher360. It allows any xbox360/one or Dual Sense(with InputMapper 1.5+) controller to be used as a mouse on a windows pc. This would allow someone to have a pc hooked up to a tv and not have to have a mousepad on the couch. It can be set to autostart when you start up the pc, and the mouse track speed can be adjusted on the fly. I have back problems, and sometimes I need to be able to lean back in my chair while I am on my computer and this way I can just grab my controller and not worry about the mouse.

Use gopher. https://github.com/Tylemagne/Gopher360

You can check this out. It maps mouse buttons and some shortcuts to your controller. https://github.com/Tylemagne/Gopher360

Something like this maybe would be helpful https://github.com/Tylemagne/Gopher360 , combined with x360ce to remap keys? Sadly I don't have the game to test.

You can use gopher360 https://github.com/Tylemagne/Gopher360/releases/tag/v0.989 It is pretty handy
