I'm making a game in XNA using c# and I'm wondering if its possible to make it so that I can control the 3d model in the game with a keyboard and an Xbox 360 controller my code for the XBox controller that i'm using is:

   private void ControllerManager(GamePadState aControllerState, ref PlayerShip aShip, GameTime gameTime)
		{
			// check for input from a player

			// left and right
			if (aControllerState.ThumbSticks.Left.X > 0 || aControllerState.DPad.Right > 0)
			{
				aSlime.IncrimentalMove(new Vector3(GameParameters.movementSpeed, 0.0f, 0.0f));
			}
			else if (aControllerState.ThumbSticks.Left.X < 0 || aControllerState.DPad.Left > 0)
			{
				aSlime.IncrimentalMove(new Vector3(-GameParameters.movementSpeed, 0.0f, 0.0f));
			}

			if (aControllerState.Buttons.A == ButtonState.Pressed)
			{
				if (aSlime.Position.Y < (GameParameters.bottomBound + 1.0f))
				{
					aSlime.AddVelocity(GameParameters.slimesJumpingVelocity); 
				}
			   
			}

			if (aControllerState.Buttons.B == ButtonState.Pressed && 
				aSlime.Position.Y > (GameParameters.bottomBound + 1.0f))
			{
				float currentGameTime = (float)gameTime.TotalGameTime.TotalMilliseconds;

				if (aSlime.LastTimeIShot + 500.0f < currentGameTime)
				{
					// create a simgle slime bullet
					Laser aSingleBullet = new Laser();
					aSingleBullet.ThreeDModelFile = Content.Load<Model>("Models/SlimeManNum1");
					aSingleBullet.ScaleValue = 0.4f;
					aSingleBullet.Velocity = new Vector3(20.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f);
					aSingleBullet.Position = greenSlime.Position;

					// add the 1 bullet to the list
					greenSlimeBullet.Add(aSingleBullet);
					aSlime.LastTimeIShot = (float)gameTime.TotalGameTime.TotalMilliseconds;
				}
			}
		}

Thanks.

You are in the wrong forum for this. Moving this to the XNA forum.

Yes, you should be able to move the model using the keyboard as well as the controller. If you have a KeyboadState field called keyboardState you should be able to do something like the following.

			if (keyboarState.IsKeyDown(Keys.Right) || aControllerState.ThumbSticks.Left.X > 0 || aControllerState.DPad.Right > 0)
			{
				aSlime.IncrimentalMove(new Vector3(GameParameters.movementSpeed, 0.0f, 0.0f));
			}
			else if keyboarState.IsKeyDown(Keys.Left) || (aControllerState.ThumbSticks.Left.X < 0 || aControllerState.DPad.Left > 0)
			{
				aSlime.IncrimentalMove(new Vector3(-GameParameters.movementSpeed, 0.0f, 0.0f));
			}

			if (keyboarState.IsKeyDown(Keys.Space) || aControllerState.Buttons.A == ButtonState.Pressed)
			{
				if (aSlime.Position.Y < (GameParameters.bottomBound + 1.0f))
				{
					aSlime.AddVelocity(GameParameters.slimesJumpingVelocity);
				}
			   
			}

			if (aControllerState.Buttons.B == ButtonState.Pressed &&
				aSlime.Position.Y > (GameParameters.bottomBound + 1.0f))
			{
				float currentGameTime = (float)gameTime.TotalGameTime.TotalMilliseconds;

				if (aSlime.LastTimeIShot + 500.0f < currentGameTime)
				{
					// create a simgle slime bullet
					Laser aSingleBullet = new Laser();
					aSingleBullet.ThreeDModelFile = Content.Load<Model>("Models/SlimeManNum1");
					aSingleBullet.ScaleValue = 0.4f;
					aSingleBullet.Velocity = new Vector3(20.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f);
					aSingleBullet.Position = greenSlime.Position;

					// add the 1 bullet to the list
					greenSlimeBullet.Add(aSingleBullet);
					aSlime.LastTimeIShot = (float)gameTime.TotalGameTime.TotalMilliseconds;
				}
			}

The Right key should be able to move the model right, the Left key should be able to move the model left and the space bar would work like the A button.

Don't forget to put this on the top.Otherwise you will press the buttons but they won't do anything

keyboardState = Keyboard.GetState();
