is there a way to pause with the gamepad? or controller more specifically

Nope.

How about helping instead of providing useless information? (Worse yet, no information)

You can try using Xpadder, it's a simple but powerful program that allows you to map controller buttons to keyboard buttons. You'd simply have to map the start button to the ESC key and you are done.

Is your gamepad compatible with Halo? i.e. when you change your controls, it allows you to change between mose and keyboard, or "insert gamepad name here". Then you can set controls like normal.

I use mine because I activate the command that allows my reticle to sort of follow and stick to enemy players.

You kick so much ass with this :c

I use Xpadder so my controllers left stick is set to the W A S D keys, the default Halo sensitivity is way too high.

wired 360 controller, I have buttons programmed like im using bumper jumper, and I have auto-aim too, but it is only active on ai in multiplayer and singleplayer and technically, the auto-aim is weak, so I kinda firing blanks if it wasn't for years of experience

Yeah, I should have been moar clear. I meant aim-assist.

if u can own without it, u can destroy in any situation

halo 1 does have aim-assist, most noticeably with the plasma weapons. if an enemy is within the crosshair of the 100% accurate plasma pistol, then the bullets will shoot towards the enemy. same with the plasma rifle.

totally a bitch on drones since they are bugged and u aim way up from them


ok so ever since I got xpadder, my controller stopped working whenever I started xpadder up

Halo 1 and Halo 2 Vista have aim assist enabled for game pad users. You need to manually activate it in CE for it to work by using the following command.

people I think xpadder may be a scam or virus, it has shut down my controller for the whole time my computer is on every time I start xpadder up

Well if XPadder doesn't work I know an alternative software that might work

I don't know if this is the correct link (I can't check because i'm at school and the site is blocked) http://glovepie.org/glovepie_download.php if it's not then google glovepie download

I think it works for xbox 360 controllers. I managed to hook up my Wii classic controller pro to my computer using it.
