(Added console controller mapping, Xidi instructions, links to the dgVoodoo page, some smaller edits.) |
(→Video: dgVoodoo 2's abilities, such as HUD scaling and forced AA and AF, are so common that to list them in every article which applies would be redundant - hence why the dgVoodoo 2 article has instructions for such things.) |

Suggested controller button mapping
The following button mapping should provide a layout similar to the console versions.
| Action | Xbox | PlayStation | Nintendo |
|---|---|---|---|
| Turn Left | LB | L | L |
| Turn Right | RB | R | R |
| Zap | B | Circle (O) | A |
| Jump | A | Cross (X) | B |
| Search | X | Square (□) | Y |
Xidi
- Xidi improves support for XInput controllers in games that use directinput.
- Allows the d-pad to be used for movement, and Enter and Escape to be mapped to Start and Back.
| Install Xidi |
