Downloaded some CD32 games but having problem with the controls.

Ironclaw · 02 January 2005, 01:38

Downloaded the CD32 version of Darkseed after being curious of what could be new when I saw the file size of 16mbs. The disk version is about 10mbs or so. Well, when I started it up and come to the game part, the dude TALKED!

. "Oh, my head hurts", "I think my head is going to explode" etc.... I couldnt control the cursor.

I then tried the CD32 version of Roadkill. the new things I saw there was a bit better gfx I think... and some animated intro sequences..... I could move around with the cursor keys and select car with SHIFT... but when the racing started, I couldnt drive... only stear the car.. but didnt move..

Anyway!

.... is it possible to 100% control a CD32 game?.. what are the keys?

Are you using a CD32 emulator on a real amiga? if that is the case I think I can give you some tips

Nope, I just opened up WinUAE, choosed "Add new directory" in Hard Drives and selected my CD e:/.... and pressed start...

Ahh...ok
Sorry can't help you then...only using real amiga's

haven't tried emu software very much yet so my knowledge is very limited.

Just open up WinUAE, choose the INPUT Tab and change COMPATABILITY MODE to CONFIGURATION #1 ! Then you can add JOY1 CD32 (BLUE) for example from a list at the bottom .... so you can fully map the CD32 Controller to your keyboard

Ahh, I remember seeing these things before but didn't know where

. Thanks for the info.

You better use a many button gamepad and configure that though.

(right thread this time)

Dont use gamebads.. only keyboard. But I do have a 8 button gamepad.... but never use it. Keyboard is the only thing I use when playing.
