    I'd like to ask if anyone know if other gamepads can be used both with TSW2 and old TS. I'd like to try using gamepad with train sims, but genuine Microsoft controllers seem to be very expensive. I never used them in other games, so I don't want to invest massive amount of money into this. I just want to try to smoothly control camera ;) I've heard that there are some controllers that are recognized as xbox controllers and work perfectly with TSW 2, but that I cannot check myself. I also found xbox controller emulator, but don't know if that works either. Does anyone have any experience with this topic? Any help will be much appreciated!!

    Edit: spelling errors

    I use a generic MSI one, albeit not in TSW but it works with Snowrunner and ETS2 etc so can't see why it wouldn't.

    The problem is TS and TSW doesn't have native controller support. It supports only Xbox controller and raildriver AFAIK.
