How to Switch From the Keyboard to the Game Pad on "Grand Theft Auto IV"

"Grand Theft Auto IV" for the PC is a port of the original "GTA IV" for the various console systems. One of the added features of this port is that players can switch between using the keyboard and a game pad. While the Xbox 360 controller is the only controller fully supported by the game, any controller can work as long as you install a third-party patch.

Instructions

1. Download and install either X-padder or xbox360emu 3.0. There is a link available for both of these in Resources.

2. Plug your game pad into your computer.

3. Load "Grand Theft Auto IV."

4. Click "Options" at the title screen.

5. Click "Controls."

6. Click "Enable Game Pad."

7. Configure shortcuts as you wish by clicking on the action and then the button on the keyboard or game pad.
