You can download Xpadder at http://xpadder.com/
First time I used this tool it was still freeware, this has changed some time ago, now you have to buy it for 9,99$, but as it is such a good software and it works with every game ever made, the 10 bucks are really good investet.

There are still (legal!) downloads of some FREE older versions in the internet you just have to look for them like on pcgames.de, it has the same functionality as the version you can buy (or at least almost, I see no difference). Nevertheless I would suggest to support the developer from Xpadder, (donated money myself, absolutely the right thing to do, for useing such a helpful software) and buy/donate at his site.

After downloading, just extract the files into a folder and run the exe, the software runs directly from the folder, no installation needed.

Before configuring your controls you have to connect your controller and create a new "Controller Layout" (you have to do this only once). But before doing so, first download a picture of your controller (google search a picture and take one with a top view, where you can see each or at least most buttons) and hold it ready. Having an actual picture of your controller makes the further configuration process much easier and more logical.

Click left on the little controller icon and select "New..."



Add the picture of your controller in the "Controller Settings" submenu in the "Image" section via the "Open" Button or paste it directly from your clipboard.



After that go into the subsection "Sticks" and "DPad" and check every box, then press the appropriate stick / button into the displayed direction.





This will create a little square (or crosshair/circle) wich functions as a marker and flashes when you press the corresponding button on your controller. Drag and drop each marker over the associated trigger/stick/button on the controller picture that you have created before.

Do the same thing for the subsections "Buttons" and "Triggers"

It should look like this when you are finished.

You can bind each button with the desired command like A Button = Leer for Jump etc. RT = Mouse one for Shoot, by clicking on the marker then select your keybinding from the keyboardlayout that pops up. You can even bind combos, or multiple keys to one button if you like, but let get to that later.

For your convenience I have added the controls layout:



To bind the mouse movement to the stick you have to click on that little wrench symbol.



Then select 1) "Mouse - normal" or inverted if that is your playstyle



As the horizontal and the vertical "Mouse" speed are not the same (in games like Shadow Warrior or Duke Nukem 3D ), you have to set them manually under 2) "Mouse settings". Otherwise the mouselook feels kinda buggy because you are moving much faster up and down than left and right.



Double the the horizontal speed to have a normal egoshooter style mouselook. And change the mouse speed in the ingame options under "Mouse Setup" to your liking.



After binding every Key it should look like this. Feel free to change the config to your wishes.



If you want to save some time and try you can try out my controller configuration, just save your profile as it is, open the saved .txt file and copy and paste my config that I have posted below. You can change that config easily after that.
