Sleeping dogs definitive edition + xbox360ce

Below please find how I get my PS2 controller to work with Sleeping Dogs Definitive Edition (platform: Windows 8.1 Steam) successfully.
  1. Make sure you have Visual Studio 2013 redistributables installed. You can install them from http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=40784.
  2. Download the xb360ce application (the 64-bit library version) at https://code.google.com/p/x360ce/downloads/list
  3. Unzip x360ce.App and put x360ce_x64.exe under C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\SleepingDogsDefinitiveEdition\.
  4. Download https://x360ce.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/x360ce/Support/x360ce.gdb and put it under C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\SleepingDogsDefinitiveEdition\. Make sure you find the following lines in the file.
    [SDHDShip.exe]
Name = Sleeping Dogs: Definitive Edition
HookMask = 0x00000002
  5. Run x360ce_x64.exe that you put to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\SleepingDogsDefinitiveEdition\. Go to the Game Settings tab. Check the appropriate box to generate xinput9_1_0.dll. Then click "Save". Rename xinput1_3.dll to xinput_9_1_0.dll.
  6. Start the sdhdship.exe under C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\SleepingDogsDefinitiveEdition\.

      See my reply in another thread for the .dll issue. For the x360ce.exe crash, does it work if it is run in some other folder (e.g. right at where you unzip x360ce.App.zip?

    The file xinput_9_1_0.dll library 64-bit is not present! When I try to start the game you see this error message "xboxce -Warning"
    "Configuration file version does not match x360ce version. Some options may not work until configuration file will be updated."
    What do I do?

      That file is indeed xinput1_3.dll in that 64-bit library folder. Sorry for missing that info. I have updated step 4 accordingly.
      The "Configuration file version does not match x360ce version. Some options may not work until configuration file will be updated." should be okay to be ignored, you should be able to play with your non-xb360 controller, though I believe there is a way to skip that warning message.

    hi, I have download xinput_x64.dll and rename it to xinput9_1_0.dll and paste it on the directory where the sdhdship.exe is and when I start the game it prompt an error message saying "The program can't start because MSVCP120.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling to fix the problem." after I delete the xinput9_1_0.dll the game is working but my controller is still mess up.
    So what do I do?

      I haven't used it for a while. I suppose the latest version should still work. Do you have any problem using that latest version?

      You dont need it.

      Open x360ce_x64.exe, go to Game Setting tab, "sdhdship.exe" must be selected (if not just click on it).

      On the right hand side under 'Hook Mask' check 'COM' is ticked and it reads "00000002". If its 00000000, then untick and tick again. It should read 00000002 now.

      Under 'XInput Files', tick "64-bit v9.1" as this is 64 bit game so 32bit version of the dll wont work. Click 'Apply/Synchronize Settings'. Close the app. You should now have 'xinput9_1_0.dll' file placed in the folder.

      Run the game. The controls should be working fine.

      And i dont think the version of x360ce matters unless you are using a particular version of .gdb file.

Play octoshape stream on windows with VLC player

Install windows octoshape plugin at http://www.octoshape.com/files/octosetup.exe Install VLC player at http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-windows.html . Use the installer so later octoshape can pick it as the preferred player. (Updated 12/26/2010: A dirty way to make sure windows associate all media files to vlc player is to explicitly set in vlc's Tool -> Preferences -> Interface -> Set up associations, select all file types. Then in Octoshape Settings (right click on the Octoshape system tray icon and select Settings), select use "System player") Create a bat file named stream.bat. In Windows XP, type in the bat file.
