DoomRL + Xpadder = Awesome (playing DoomRL with gamepad)

<< < (2/4) > >>

RogerN:
I play a lot of roguelikes on my laptop and use those keys exclusively.  It's very convenient, and now it feels weird if I try to play on my desktop using the keypad.  My keys have a few minor differences, though, to match what I'm used to from playing Angband:

Look = "x";
Fire = "t";
Use = "Z";
Playerinfo = "C";
AltFire = "T";

ExamineNPC = "v";
ExamineItem = "V";

thelaptop:
I keep mine using as much of the default keys as possible, so that I don't get hopelessly lost playing the vanilla DoomRL.  (=

If anyone wants to try and use xpadder and needs the controller overlays, let me know. I might have them. Just let me know what controller you are using. The link in the first post doesn't include the controller pics. They aren't completely necessary, but they help when mapping the keys to buttons.

On a somewhat related note, it'd be an interesting exercise since this can potentially lead to a better choice of key mapping for DoomRL should Kornel decide to port it to a portable gaming console near you some day.  ;-)

Brewtal Legend:
I tried your key configuration thelaptop. It works alright, but a little awkward for me personally. Using a gamepad seems the best bet for me. It works really well and makes playing faster. I don't have to hunt for keys either.

I can control everything from the gamepad. The only time I have to use the keyboard is when I apply a mod and have to press a,w, or other to apply the mod.

Thanks for sharing though.
