Post by Native american »

does anybody know how to stick a control device to a character because only the general options seem to be working and i cant find the way to play the game.

this problem does not occur in 2.22 for instance

If you're doing a starter ("new game") the four controls should be active.
If you're doing the others, the player selection screen should have a control selection as well.

The four controls being:
Keyboard
Mouse
Joystick A
Joystick B

i know that it is supposed to work this way as it works in version 2.22 (the four control thing) but it doesnt in 2.8.2 or any other except 2.22. when i push escape button the menu window appears but i cant perform any other tasks. :ack:

and i havent unlocked any modules except the starter ones so i dont get the chance to try to pick a controler divice

You might be hitting the bug where you have to set the input controls in-game :|
