Controller Support
Note that instructional tooltips remain as if using a keyboard and mouse when using the controller.
- PsychoPad v1.0b can be used to add Xbox 360 controller menus and tooltips to game. Requires v1.05 patch.
Xbox 360 Controller Recommended
Whilst the game does support keyboard and mouse input the experience is clunky and awkward. Using a controller is recommended to enjoy the game to the fullest.
Other Controllers
You can also use Xpadder to use any other type of PC controller.
Issues And Fixes
Changing Swing Direction
When swinging from a bar the 'F' key is used to change swing direction (Y on the controller).
Graphics Error Preventing Startup
Error: "The game was unable to find a 32bpp display mode supported by your system in which to run. Your video card and monitor must minimally support 640x480x32bpp."
Solution: Create a file called "DisplaySettings.ini" in the game directory. Populate it with the following:
[DisplaySettings] ScreenWidth=1080 ScreenHeight=1920 FullScreen=true VSync=true FSAA=true FSFX=true AdvancedShading=true Shadows=true GammaCorrection=1.000000"
ScreenWidth and ScreenHeight are your desired resolution.
