SideWinder Gamepad Pro: Using Schemes or Profiles from Other Game Controllers (237239)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft SideWinder game pad Pro
- Microsoft SideWinder Game Controller software 4.0
This article was previously published under Q237239 SUMMARYThe scheme file name extension for the Microsoft SideWinder Game Pad Pro game controller is .swz. The scheme file name extension for the Microsoft SideWinder Dual Strike game controller is .sws. The SideWinder Dual Strike and the SideWinder Game Pad Pro can use schemes or profiles converted from the following SideWinder game controllers: - SideWinder Dual Strike (.sws)
- SideWinder Freestyle Pro, game port connection (.swx)
- SideWinder Freestyle Pro, USB connection (.swy)
- SideWinder Game Pad Pro (.swz)
- SideWinder game pad (.swg)
The information included in a scheme or profile is converted differently based on the design of the game controller that you are converting the scheme or profile from. In certain cases, not all the scheme or profile information can be converted from the original scheme or profile because of design differences between the game controllers. For example, only the button names are converted if you convert a scheme from the SideWinder Dual Strike to the SideWinder Game Pad Pro. MORE INFORMATION
After you convert a scheme or profile, use the settings on the Recorder
and Settings tabs in the SideWinder Game Controller software to make any
necessary changes to the scheme or profile.
