Playing EQ on a playstation controller

[RosstheBoss]

Purchase ($10 i think) Xpadder, at http://www.xpadder.com/ and yes it's worth $10 it's an incredible program that you couldn't have even imagined to develop yourself.

Purchase a logitech playstation controller at Wal Mart or whatever, get whatever controller you want.

Run Xpadder. Map hotkeys to buttons and analog sticks to mouse movement. You can map right and left click, combinations of buttons such as Ctrl+S and virtually whatever you want. I personally use my left analog stick as a slow moving mouse and the right as the quick moving mouse and rarely use the left analog stick.

See? It's very easy even a baby could do it. So stop acting surprised when I tell you I'm playing a bard or enchanter on a playstation controller. It's EASY. My challenge goes out to YOU to play EQ on an NES controller. Better yet, make a warrior and do it on atari ( http://www.retrousb.com/index.php?cP...9fa0c766f398a4 )

Enjoy!

I never tried it, but I'm sure with better DS3 you could do the same thing without the adapter.

How would you see the game if you played it on just a playstation controller?

I have an xbox controller, would love to try this on a rogue some time. I think I would do it in third person. What kind of mapping do you use (edit: specifically, if you don't mind)?

Interesting.

I'm not sure bud I was trying to be non-technical. I think there's a general misunderstanding about how easy it is to do this. I personally waited 2 years or something before I started using the logitech controller and damned if i dont regret it

telemakus i can post my setup in a bit, but here's some tips

1) set the push-in of the analog stick to be sit

2) make one button autorun of course

3) make start open inventory and select close inventory

4) You have 4 hotkeys but you can use Ctrl+1 for example to use hotkey 5

where 1 and 2 are left and right click, num pad 1 2 and 3 are hotkeys on action bar, O and I are close and open inventory respectively, num pad 9 is sit (you could also just assign it to Ctrl+S if you want i dont spend much time on this stuff) Num pad - is auto run, and E is just leftover it's not for EQ

[RosstheBoss]

If you need more hotkeys than 3 (i've never found this to be the case) you can make hotkeys assigned to Ctrl+n (n being a number) and make one of the buttons on your controller assigned to the Ctrl button. that way you turn 3 keys into 6
