Is gamepad support for the linux version planned?
I notice Psychonauts has great gamepad support on linux but this game doesn't. Is adding it planned, if not does someone know of a way to emulate it?

Copying what I said in the other topic about this (well, the slightly edited version i left as a comment in the reddit Linux_gaming sub in the thread about issues with this Bundle)

For controller support on Linux, and probably on Mac as well, a similar method for what has to be done with The Cave, where SDLGamepad.config has to be (semi)manually edited. I found a script that automatically does it provided you have the controller set up in Big Picture mode (had to boot a live CD myself, apparently there's a bug with the closed blob for my graphics, causes it to crash) and edited it a bit (changed the config directory to the CQ one, and I think the library part was for the Mac setup. quite a few Cave references in the code still) http://pastebin.com/EMgWDYUa

==(not an edit here)EDIT== well, for any that aren't already configured that is, like in my case an original Xbox Duke
Thanks for the tip but for now I will leave it alone if it's not otherwise possible to map a gamepad, because I don't use big picture nor do I feel like tinkering with it.

Fair enough. Only takes a couple seconds to set up, basically just following a prompt matching the buttons up to what they'd be on a 360 controller. What controller are you using? if it's common enough maybe someone else will have done it and can post the line from the file. Keep in mind if it isn't an Xbox derived one the in game button prompts probably won't match the ones on the controller

Just to clarify, you don't need to be in big picture mode to use a controller in this game; big picture mode is just an easy way to map your controllers settings to something compatible with DF's newer games under Linux. Once you've configured the controller in big picture mode, the resulting gamepad settings are located in the file ~/.local/share/Steam/config/config.vdf. These settings can be copied to the configuration file SDLGamepad.config, located under ~/.local/share/doublefine/costumequest. A sample SDLGamepad.config is located under ~/.local/share/Steam/SteamApps/common/Costume Quest/Data/Config
