Astérix Speedrunning: xxl2

...Wait I'll try something else

martyste

what even is your controller, first and foremost

martyste

it's either Xbox related (XInput), or Dinput for everything else that is wired.

martyste

and a controller can't natively be both unless 3rd party apps come into question

benlitzler

I use an Xbox controller

benlitzler

But I managed to solve the problem

martyste

what i know is that XXL2 has this sort of shadow conflict

martyste

where confirm/cancel do soething weird and can interrupt combos

benlitzler

I made a copy of the JoyToKey configuration I had initially created and kept only the camera controls in the key list. Then in the XXL 2 settings, I changed my controller keys while adding the keyboard keys only for the camera And now everything works... It's a bit of a hack, but it works

mekanix

I'll probably look into doing something similar for Asterix at the Olympic Games because I've NEVER had the chance to really play it in my life (outside of the tutorial) and I had the same camera issue... So maybe that should work too

benlitzler

That said, thanks a lot for the help!

martyste

J2K for camera only was my go-to method with XXL1

martyste

Asterix OG is a "Games for Windows" era game, it has native XInput support and *screws* everything else. You'll be as comfy as the X360 port.

At some point all the combos stopped working for me too. Reinstalling or clearing the save fixed it for me... 🤷‍♂️

martyste

which meant resetting your controls in some way

hesopesomeso

does the right controller stick work for anyone?

martyste

menhir rain would be the only working combo in a situation where you go full keyboard binds mapped to joy2key, because Cross and Triangle were not causing conflicts while being pressed

hesopesomeso

yeah, i have no clue why it's a thing :obelul:

but menhir rain didn't work either

martyste

maybe it varies with controllers, because not all are detected equal with the 4 main buttons
