Doom VFR, Borderlands 2 VR, Skyrim VR have gamepad support.
I use free x360ce.exe that translates gamepad to any K&M layout to choose.
Don't need a gamepad -I don't have one- with x360 running, because the PC thinks it has a gamepad connected.
Doom VFR has a few keys taken by default, WASD, Ctrl for grenades, Alt for objetives, etc.
You can use them or choose any layout in free keys.
Turn around like in Doom 2016: in VFR settings, set SEGMENT TURNING off.
----------
There is no need to place x360ce.exe inside the game folder. You can keep single copy at one place on your PC.

For example: C:\Program Files\x360ce\x360ce.exe

Do not close Xbox 360 Controller Emulator 4.x during the game, just minimise it to reduce CPU use.

Make sure your game is set to use XInput Devices.

For example: In "Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands" you have to set OPTIONS > CONTROLLER > ENABLE CONTROLLER: ONLY GAMEPADS

Download latest Xbox 360 Controller Emulator (same file for 32-bit and 64-bit Windows).
Extract downloaded ZIP file and launch x360ce.exe.


In x360ce.exe choose left and right arrows for turning around (can be other keys too), and up and down arrows for the weapon wheel selection.

Then I also use free Glovepie for turning left and right with the mouse, just copy paste this
Key.Left = delta(Mouse.DirectInputX) < -1 in mickeys
Key.Right = delta(Mouse.DirectInputX) > 1 in mickeys

And also this, for choosing in all directions with the mouse in the weapon wheel selection.
Key.up = delta(Mouse.DirectInputY) < -1 in mickeys
Key.down = delta(Mouse.DirectInputY) > 1 in mickeys

Complicated ? Make the effort once, then enjoy with similar gamepad games.

Any sort of way to do this and launch the game without a vr headset?
