Hello there guys and gals, hope your OUYA's are bringing you as much fun as mine has! The question I see more than any other in the sideloading threads is "How do I get X Gameloft game to work?". While the general consensus so far has been that you can't, some recent discoveries have provided us all with a way to not only get our favorite Gameloft games working, but to enable full controller compatibility as well! This guide will show you how to get games like Modern Combat 4 working perfectly on your OUYA.
1. Acquire your game
There are two ways of obtaining Gameloft games for your OUYA, the best and easiest way is to sideload the Amazon App Store (DOWNLOAD HERE), but alternatively they can also be gotten from Gameloft's webstore by navigating to wapshop.gameloft.com on the OUYA web browser.
2. The Game Won't Load :crying:
Cheer up friend! There is a very simple and easily fixable reason why your Gameloft game isn't loading, the OUYA's task manager settings. On your OUYA go to "Manage" then "System" then "Advanced", then scroll down to the button and click on "Developer Options", scroll down to the bottom once again and uncheck the option third from the bottom that says "Destroy an activity as soon as a user leaves it".
At this point your Gameloft game will be able to run properly, but you may notice that when you go to launch it from the "Make" menu it refuses to launch. Gameloft games must be launched either from the Amazon App Store by clicking the "open" button in the "My Apps" menu or by using a third party launcher such as Nova Launcher.
3. But The Controller Doesn't Work!
And now we come to penultimate step, the controller. Many Gameloft games only support a single bluetooth controller, the MOGA controller. This is the part where many sideloaders hit a dead end, but fear not! It's been discovered there is an easy way into fooling certain Gameloft games into thinking the OUYA controller is in fact a MOGA controller.
How is this miracle accomplished?
Simple. By plugging in most USB HID devices, such as a USB mouse or keyboard for example(YMMV), you can fool several Gameloft games into working perfectly with the OUYA controller. A good way to test if your HID device works or not is to download and run Blitz Brigade(a free game). If you get a toast message saying "MOGA Controller Detected", then your HID device should also work with Modern Combat 4, NOVA 3 and many of Gamelofts other games.
Proof this works: :highfive:
While it's been confirmed that all Gameloft games acquired through the Amazon App Store launch and run fine and most are playable with a mouse, there are only a few that support the controller with the USB HID device trick.
So far these include:
Dungeon Hunter 4 (USB trick not needed for Mage and Archer classes)
Modern Combat 4
NOVA 3

When browsing the Amazon app store via OUYA, those titles are not available. So the possible way to run them would be to trick the site in to thinking ouya was a kindle or to install it on a kindle and port it over to OUYA via root backup apps.

Then you need to follow step two:
On your OUYA go to "Manage" then "System" then "Advanced", then scroll down to the button and click on "Developer Options", scroll down to the bottom once again and uncheck the option third from the bottom that says "Destroy an activity as soon as a user leaves it".

You may have to turn off the ouya after you do this and bring it back up with the devices plugged in

Game pads?

So downloaded some pretty awesome games (shadowgun, nova 3, modern combat, riptide GP, and a load more - went kind of overboard but that's what the first hit of a Tegra 3 device can do to a man...) on my Nexus 7 but struggling to get the hang of touchscreen FPS. Are there any game pads out there that I can connect wirelessly (wifi/bluetooth) to use instead when at home?
Thanks,

Awesome, I imagine not all games will be compatible but can test with my cousin's ps3. Do XBOX 360 ones work as well then?

Ps3 and wii classic controller

1. I was wondering If any of these apps were compatable with a ps3 controller or a Wii classic controller.
- modern combat 3
- minecraft pe
- emulators (I know they work on a Wii classic using wiimote, but can you use a ps3 controller?)
- sims 3
- real racing 2
- samurai 2
- Bang bang racing
- galaxy on fire 2
- vendetta online
- backbreaker
- Guerilla bob
2. I know lots of games that the ps3 controller works on and I know you can play emulators with a Wii classic controller using wiimote, but can you use the ps3 controller for emulators or the Wii classic controller for games controller adapted?
I would love to see the classic extension recognized.
Has anyone heard of an app that will map gamepads (especially Bluetooth) to traditional controls for apps without support?
How about emulating a pointer with the wiimote or six axis

I know of sixaxis but I'd rather not root. I'm not very techy and I feel like I'd make a mistake while rooting.
Anyone else?
a few months late, but here is something that may interest you that I posted in another thread.

Were you aware of these? http://is.gd/SHLYdT and http://is.gd/lt2XDs and http://is.gd/WYM2EU They have apps in Play store too.
Thanks for that info!!! This will really be great if they start getting the touch mapping up and running. I also informed my guys at DroidGamers.

Download the SixAxis app from the Play Store and link them, pretty much it to be honest mate.
Also is the game any good mate?
Its not bad actually. Haven't spent a massive amount of time on it due to trying to get a PS3 controller configured lol.

Did you manage to find the SixAxis?
If not:

It is a paid app but buy it, give it a quick go and if it doesnt work/you dont like it get it refunded, if not keep it and enjoy your PS3 controller

I bought it, sync'd, and can't figure out how to get the controller to control the screen. It definitely pairs, and I've enabled it under input methods.. game just doesn't react to it. Color me confused.
There's an option in SixAxis to change how the controller interacts with the device. You can have the controller map to "touch areas" on your screen. So pressing a button will touch a particular area on the screen.
You should also have an option to have the controller be a gamepad, so games should see you have a "gamepad" connected. I do this when playing Modern Combat 3. I set it to a gamepad, and when I play the game, I just map the buttons normally. The R3/L3 sticks also should move as analog.

Xbox 360 controller on Modern Combat 4

Hello, has anyone managed to get the Xbox 360 controller with an OTG cable to work on Modern combat 4? The right analogue stick doesn't move so I cannot turn my player, i would like to remap the controls as they only partially work right now. If anyone has experience with this or any form of guide how to help this would be hugely appreciated. Thanks

I am looking for a similar thing...also is there an xbox app like the six axis for ps3 controller (even beta version in development would be helpful)...
I believe you might need a custom keylayout. If I recall right, someone posted a proper keylayout for both a wired and wireless Xbox 360 controller that was supposed to fix the spiraling camera issue in DEAD TRIGGER, which I would imagine would work fine for any other game
Okay but how do I go about getting a custom key layout?

Will need to have root.
Info and key map in this thread
Not played modern combat 4... But this got my Xbox controllers working properly with dead trigger, gta3 and GTA vice city...
I'm fine with rooting just only if the controller will work for definite, otherwise I will return and swap for a ps3 sixaxis , and thanks also.

There is an app called USB/BT Joystick Center that does what you ask, it also works for a ton of devices such as wii controllers, mice, keyboards, etc. However native support would be much better.

The file 'Vendor_045e_Product_0291.kl.zip', attached to that guide, is the key map for wired controllers, which is missing from the n10. Just extract and copy the file to /system/usr/key layout and then set permissions. As I said before, I can't say if it works with mc4 but it definitely works for other games.
I rooted / got USB/BT joystick centre 6, and used the touch server add on to assign the touch screen commands to my Xbox controller.
Each button works correctly, and both analogs but my only problem now is the sensitivity is not high enough for the right analog (turning left/right and up/down) so it takes about 5 seconds for a 360 degrees turn.
I turned the in game sensitivity up to Max, also when I assigned the right analog to turn I put the speed to its highest (10), increasing the speed helped slightly but I need it to be faster, anyone have expereince with the app and able to tell me how to increase the sensitivity?

Just tried the guide from that thread and its no different unfortunately, the same buttons work before and after following the guide. Those buttons are Lb, Rb, Y,X and the left analog stick. Aside from that guide all I actually need is to increase the right analog sensitivity using USB/BT joystick centre somehow if anyone can assist,

Maybe the better choice is ps3 controller with sixaxis app? I used to use it for Asus prime and modern combat 3. Panning wasn't as smooth though and required you to set up on screen button layout.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2
Hmm from video tutorials I've seen of the ps3 controller on MC4, the sensitivity seems the same. Maybe I'm wrong but would rather first try and figure it out for an Xbox controller before buying a new one
Sent from my Nexus 10 using Tapatalk 2
Does it work? as i am also trying to use my wired 360 controller and right stick doesn't seem to work...
You have to use the j>t touch emulation and set up the buttons yourself, but the right analog is to slow, need to know if their is a way to speed it up

Help with right analog stick Sensitivity.
I am also trying to raise the sensitivity for my right analog stick as I am also trying to play Modern Combat 4 with my Xbox 360 controller. Does anyone have a solution?:
I never found one. I just went ahead and bought the ps3 six axis, along with the app. Has a sensitivity option which is perfect
Sent from my Nexus 10 using Tapatalk 2
I can't see buying a $50 controller for a $1 game. I have a wired Xbox controller but think it would be cool if I could use my controller on mc4.. Joy2touch doesn't work too well. Any help would be awesome!
Am I using joy to touch wrong? Its like the dead Zone is huge but once you overcome the dead zone the movement speed seems to be full on. So aiming speed is either way fast or it doesn't move at all....

Works perfect for me. Rooted using cm 10.1. Make sure you synced the controller in Bluetooth settings before. Check system mode then check the bax to start the service in the app. I just tested with an emulator and shadowgun dead zone works good but not enough buttons for dead zone when you set the controller in the options menu. My problem is not with the universal driver but with the official app playing modern combat. When I aim with the right joystick it just keeps moving it doesn't do this in dead zone with the universal driver. How are you guys using it in modern combat? Thanks

Exactly what as I described before cm 10.1 with the stock cm kernel. Turn on the controller it will be blinking then go to your Bluetooth settings on your phone and scan for new device. When it shows b&d or moga or the numbers select it so you can pair the controller to the phone. After it us paired start the universal driver app check the box that says system mode then check the box that says start driver service. Turn the controller on again if it wasn't blinking and bingo bango you're connected....
Thanks will try this when I get home.
