Using an Xbox One Controller with FS-UAE
For Windows 7 and 8.1, you need to install an official Microsoft driver before the device starts working. For Windows 10, this driver should already be installed and the controller should work out of the box.
For OS X, you need to install an unofficial driver, such as the open source Xone-OSX driver. Alternatively, you can install the 0.15 preview version (or newer) of the improved 360Controller driver which incorporates code from Xone-OSX, and also supports Xbox 360 controllers. Please note, I do not take any responsibility for your use of unofficial drivers!
On recent Linux distributions, the Xbox One controller should work out of the box 🙂
As far as I know, you need to connect the controller via a Micro-USB cable on all platforms, due to Microsoft using a proprietary wireless protocol.

USB Gamepad Retro Style SNES
Peter from Germany sent me an FS-UAE controller configuration for a retro SNES game pad. Since it identifies itself only as “USB Gamepad”, the config is not suitable for default distribution, but you can save the following configuration to (My) Documents/FS-UAE/Controllers/usb_gamepad.ini if you have this device.
