Recommended Control Setup? (PC)

[SailorTaurus]

Hi, I only just tonight found the time to get and play the demo for the first time. I've completed it, and loved it, but I had a couple of hitches concerning the battle sequences. I couldn't for the life of me be able to do an adrenaline move, mostly due to the awkward button configuration.

So i'm posting here asking what button configurations you recommend to make playing TRU comfortable. I've got your average keyboard, and a mouse with a scroll wheel (that also acts as a third mouse button).

For exactly this reason I went out yesterday and bought a joy pad controller for £10 from PC World. Once configured it emulates the controller of the consoles. After struggling with adrenaline dodges in Anniversary because of the keyboard I didn't want to have to go through it all again this time.

The demo i Played was G to lock on the H when the enemie gets near and then press H again when she aimed it wast difficult but you can change that in the control configurations :)

I play with a PS2 controller via USB.. It works a treat,and I additionally use the mouse for looking around ( only when Idle). But I couldn't for the life of me figure out that adrenalin thing, because there's no info how it translates... Anyone know how to trigger it on this controller?

I got a 360 controller yesterday and works like a charm for the PC version (plugs into the USB port) - best of all, TRU already recognizes that controller, no manual mapping needed!

I normally play TR with my keyboard but this time I really recommend using a controller.
Also what configuration might be comfortable to one person may not be the same to others.
I used my old PS2 controller. In the demo the customizing the keyboard configurations is seriously buggy. It lets you assign one key to more that on function so you can end up jumping forward shooting and trowing a grenade with just one button. Also you can't customize any of the mouse buttons. Hopefully these bugs will only limited to the demo.


Anyways you can try these.

WASD - Movement

Shift - Sprint

C -Crouch

Space Bar - Jump

G - Grenada

z - manual look

Mouse 1 - Shoot

Mouse 2 - Target

I prefer to use mouse-look style gaming with the next gen TR games. Now, these newer games still aren't nearly as clean or instinctive as the original 90's TR gaming setup, but if you set up your mouse with the Left button as "Up (forward) and your Right Mouse button as "jump", it makes things a TON easier. At least for me. I then map my space bar to shoot and leave most of the other stuff the same. But to do all of this I had to figure out (with tons of help from other good members here) how to map my mouse buttons via regedit. Supposedly the retail game will allow you to map your mouse buttons without having to dig into the games registry to do it.
