Astérix Speedrunning: xxl2

Had half an hour to remake my favourite tune of XXL2! :)

Nice work!!

failentin

only missing the woodwinds at the end, but the rest sounds very faithful!

Cheers Failentin! Yes that would've taken too long to make so I ran out of time :$

froster_xxl

ah yes, the Venice track (=

I like the pizzicato sounds, also is the percussion instrument meant to be marimba or I'm mistaking it for something similar?

gingaabread

Yes its two marimba sounds layered ^^

What's the best way to use an xbox 360 controller to play this game, because the right stick on my controller isn't detected?

martyste

XXL2 doesn't have yet a QoL to list the axis used by Xinput controllers. You must either use a DirectInput controller or have some kind of thirdparty emulating DirectInput.

martyste

On the bright side you have 100% Xinput support from the get-go with OG, which sadly also dropped DirectInput entirely.

martyste

This is probably on the high priority list for both games once the task list of XXL1 is complete.

Tried to play the game a bit but it keeps crashing when i reload to skip some areas :whatelix:

failentin

oh no, how weird...

failentin

maybe connected to dsound again?

failentin

(i think dsound caused problems for some in XXL1 at least?)

nekin

yup i'm pretty sure it's dsound again

nekin

i will wait a @hesopesomeso patch if he does one to play the game again one day :feelsbadman:

failentin

and if we run the game in mono sound?

nekin

what difference would it make with dsound?

failentin

maybe I'm wrong there, but I thought dsound was only to make the game run smooth in stereo sound
