I use a different controller profle for just about every game I play, so I'm wondering if there's a way to edit the config file for a game to have it load a controller profile when the game loads. I'd be willing to manually edit my config files if someone knows the internal name for loading a controller profile (and the brackets name, i.e. [core], [wii], etc., involved if that's neccessary).
I'm also wondering if there's a way to use a mixture of mouse/keyboard and xinput. Specifically I'm talking about Metroid: Other M. I use a 360 controller for normal play, which makes aiming in first person mode more difficult than with a mouse. What I'd like to be able to do is press the button on the controller that toggles pointing the remote at the screen and then take over with the mouse for aiming, rather than use the analogue stick. When I try setting xinput for the dpad and buttons and the mouse for IR controls, the game will only recognize the input method currently selected. I can't think of any other game where that would be something I'd use, so if it's not possible, oh well.
