Hey.
|
When I try to press a direction on the pad, it works, but then it's as if the game thinks I'm holding down that direction on the pad (It continuously cycles & gradually accelerates in the same direction).
I have the original Microsoft Sidewinder Gamepad (Not USB).
My settings are posted below. Am I doing something wrong?
Here is a copy of my starcon.key file:
# Pause
"F1"
# Exit
"F10"
# Abort
"F12"
# Player 1
<Joyport0-threshold0>
"Left" <Joy-A0->
"Right" <Joy-A0+>
"Up" <Joy-A1->
"Down" <Joy-A1+>
"Enter" <Joy-B0>
" " <Joy-B1>
"RCtrl" <Joy-B3>
"Esc" <Joy-B4>
"LShift" <Joy-B6>
"RShift" <Joy-B7>
# Player 2
"s"
"f"
"e"
"d"
"w"
"q"
"a"

Ok, it's a digital pad, but I guess it's worth a shot.

Hey.

Ok that fixed the repeating issue, but now I can't seem to get the buttons or directions setup correctly.

Hey.

I tried using the number pad to enter the values, and that had no effect.

hmmm,
post your starcon.key and then post what your controller does when you press buttons.ie:
i press (this way)=it does(this action)
dont forget the starcon.key, i need to use that to compare it what your controllers doing.~DEFIANT

Hey.

Here's what's happening:
Note: I've tried to reconfigure starcon.key to make the buttons work correctly based on what happens in game, and the buttons all do completely different things.
Control Button = Action In Game
Up = Up (Correct)
Down = Right
Left = Left (Correct)
Right = Nothing
Button 0 (A) = Down
Button 1 (B) = Enter
Button 2 (C) = Not Assigned (Correct)
Button 3 (X) = Space
Button 4 (Y) = RCtrl
Button 5 (Z) = Nothing
Button 6 (L) = LShift (Correct)
Button 7 (R) = RShift (Correct)
Button 8 (Start) = Not Assigned (Correct)
Button 9 (M) = Not Assigned (Correct)
starcon.key
# Pause
"F1"
# Exit
"F10"
# Abort
"F12"
# Player 1
<Joyport0-threshold1000>
"a" <Joy-A0+>
"d" <Joy-A0->
"w" <Joy-A1+>
"s" <Joy-A1->
"Enter" <Joy-B0>
" " <Joy-B1>
"RCtrl" <Joy-B3>
"Esc" <Joy-B4>
"LShift" <Joy-B6>
"RShift" <Joy-B7>
# Player 2
"Left"
"Right"
"Up"
"Down"
"b"
"n"
"m"

this is how mine looks:
"left" <Joy-AO->
"right" <Joy-AO+>
"up" <Joy-A1->
"down" <Joy-A1+>
there is a space that seperates the "dierction" from the <joypad>. it seems there is no difference between the + or - on keypad or keyboard. if this doesnt work im at a loss. as im not sure any more how i actually got mine to work? dumb luck i suppose? keep trying im sure youll get it.~DEFIANT

Hey.

I guess I'll have to wait for the next version to use my controller.
I tried another control last night with the same results.
Oh, I forgot to mention that I'm running WinXP Pro.

try this:
"left" <Joy-A0+>
"right" <Joy-A1->
"up" <Joy-A1+>
"down" <Joy-A0->
once you get the directions working the buttons are a peice of cake. if that doesnt work, post using the new config (the one i just gave you in this post) does when you press "direction"="it does this"
well go from there...im not giving up just yet...~DEFIANT

Ok, when I had the exact same problem, this is what eventually worked for me:
<Joyport0-threshold2000>
"Left"
"Right" <Joy-A0->
"Up" <Joy-A0+>
"Down" <Joy-A1->
"Enter" <Joy-A1+>
" " <Joy-B2>
"RCtrl" <Joy-B0>
"Esc" <Joy-B1>
"LShift" <Joy-B5>
"RShift" <Joy-B7>
Every Joystick definition is shifted one down, except for the ESC, which does not work at all. The last two buttons work as they are defined. I am running with a Gravis Gamepad Pro (non USB) with WinXP Pro. Joystick 2 is the same story. If you're stuck, give this a try and see what happens.
