Final Fantasy VII Forum

I used a Cross Tie to install Steam, and then Final Fantasy 7 on my Macbook Pro (10.8.5). The game runs perfectly and looks great (thank you!). However, I can't seem to get my Logitech f310 gamepad to work with the game. Oddly enough, the Square-Enix launcher, which has settings options for both the keyboard and a "joystick", seems to recognize the device - I can change and configure the buttons just fine. However, once I launch the game, I get nothing from the controller.

I'm fine with playing the game on the keyboard if I have to, but the gamepad would definitely be preferable - there are a handful of mini-games to be done in Final Fantasy 7 that would be much easier with a gamepad than a keyboard.

Any help would be much appreciated.

(and thank you for making such an awesome product!)

Are you willing to experiment?

If so then look at this Tips & Tricks article:

Rogue Legacy now has ports for Linux and MacOS X but it's the first title that I tried to get my controller to work on and was successful.
The path to the game install dir is different, of course, but the basic idea is to unpack all the files in the game's folder, do a library override, run the configurator to set up your controller, then load the game and test.

If you have issues, ask question here. I'll do my best to help. If you manage to get it working, let me know. I need more people testing this.

Good luck,
Silviu
