If i wanted to use this to control something on another game besides FS, Could i use a program similar to "Xpadder" to map the controls?

I am not familiar with "Xpadder that you are referring to, however I know that Saitek has software that may allow you to map the controls. I have always used mine with FSX Gold. The best recommendation I can give you is to go to www.saitek.com and go to their support tab. You can check out the FAQ's but you will probably have to send an e-mail to their support division at MadCatz who is the parent company and ask them. They are good at responding within 24 hours. I hope this helps. Ok I have to ask. Is this Taylor Swift the singer or just Amazon name? Good luck and if you have any other questions feel free to post.

There maybe a chance you could, my recommendation is go to saitek website go to the support tab and ask them if they have a software download that would allow you to map the controls for the game you want before you buy it. This way you don't have a paperweight that you paid for.

All of Saitek's products are programmable and therefore can be modified in simulators such as FSX etc. I am not familiar with your simulator or program but I am sure that you can obtain the map of the buttons and knobs and therefore change their functionality.

It works great. If you want to map the buttons, use xboxdrv. It's in the Ubuntu main repository.

yes and no. They recommend buying the wired one and downloading this driver to make it work. http://tattiebogle.net/index.php/ProjectRoot/Xbox360Controller/OsxDriver then buying an app that allows you to map the buttons. I use Joystick Mapper. But I found that a lot of games on steam that says controller support for windows, I had a hard time getting it to work for mac. A lot of trying to figure out what the buttons are, then mapping them.

I just purchased this item and haven't used it yet, but the idea that i might be able to use it outside of gaming validated purchasing it. So to answer your question, IDK, but I was going to try setting up some macros for use in Photoshop or similar apps with stuff like shift+alt+G or whatever.

Yes, in games like Skyrim and oblivion I have the side buttons mapped to different functions. I haven't figured out if you can program the buttons outside of game play. By default they are mapped to go back and forward on web pages.

Any button on the mouse can be remapped in the steelseries engine software. Just be sure to load the correct profile you have programmed for the software you wish to run.

Yes and no, yes because every game for windows got the default programing for the xbox game controller, but i always recomend to install the controller Gaming software to the pc that you can find in the officila website at logitech, because this vary on the operative system and may do the things more easy for you. I Attach the website gaming software.http://www.logitech.com/en-us/support/wireless-gamepad-f710?osid=23&bit;=64

a program called 'AutoHotKey' will allow you to do so by writing a script. Any key or mouse button can be mapped to any other key or mouse button.

Hm. I'm starting to wonder if you play DayZ.Anyway, yes. Any of the buttons on the mouse can be remapped to any function (such as a keystroke or macro) that you wish via the included configuration software. I'm kind of surprised I haven't done that yet, myself.

Yes. Set a macro via your OS or utilize third party software WYSIWYGs. This is not a programmable item on it's own. Most any key can be configured for just about anything via the OS. To answer previous questions, the same goes for the mouse. For gaming purposes, use the in game configurations options.

it has the same middle click function as most mice. i am able to map it within games so it should work

Yes, you should be able to do what you are asking. You D/L the game and create a launch icon from the C drive. Should work just fine.

Not sure, but when you use the Logitech SetPoint software, you can program the buttons for certain commands. I have one button that pulls all programs into one screen. So you can certainly set up commands and whatnot.

I would imagine so.. it emulates your keyboard. You assign the keys to how you want it mapped. & it works great for macros.Many many profiles to create & use.I haven't used my keyboard for any game since I got it!!

You can set the controller using the xinput, and it read the dualshock as an Xbox controller. This is helpful because most games and PCs read Xbox controllers.

Yes you can configure this in the Options. I'm using the same control keys like in THPS2

Yes you can, it is all in the programing that you do on the computer before using this awesome controller. You will just have to asign them different icons on the touch screen. It works with approx 15, 000 different products. Best dam remote I have ever bought
