Pad: X for Grapple, X for Weapon Menu

[west routes]

I just got the grapple hook and it is assigned to a button that already has a function. Anyone else use pad and have this problem? What did you remap to?

By default X is only for the grapple. Is it possible you remapped the weapon menu to X too? What kind of gamepad do you have?

im using a ps3 controller with scarlet crush to emulate a 360 controller, so X is square. X was assigned for the weapon menu by default. what should the weapon menu be assigned to?

Using a PS3 controller to emulate a 360 controller won't change the bindings in the in-game menu. You should be able to see what the default controls are just by looking at the button mapping in the inputs menu. If X is grapple and weapons menu, maybe there's something wrong in the 360 controller emulation?

The default button for "weapons menu" is up on the dpad.

up on the dpad is "Weapon 2" by default for me

i dont have another pad so i cant check if it's a problem with scarlet crush but i havent had problems with it before

my default inputs have been:

A: melee/use
B: jump
Y: reload
X: weapon menu and now grapple

r trigger: fire
l trigger: alt fire

r bumper: next weapon
l bumper: previous weapon

click left stick: dash
click right stick: map overlay

dpad left: weapon 1
dpad up: weapon 2
dpad right: weapon 3
dpad down: weapon 4

back button: skill powerup menu
start: main menu

Have you owned Nightmare Reaper for a long time? Have you started a game before Chapter 2 was out and just now started playing it again?

Also, FYI, there's currently an issue playing the minigame with the gamepad. Just use the keyboard or disable it for now.

Yeah my save file is from December 2019.

I remapped everything to your specs, there seems to be no way to clear an input. My dpad inputs still double as weapon slots.

Accessing menus feels better using the directional buttons instead of face buttons, however it feels a little clunky now that i can't navigate those menus with the directional buttons anymore. Pressing up or right will now access different menus, but down and left can navigate.

The grapple hook now works on X and the game is playable again, minus not being able to dash in the minigame on pad.

I'll probably fiddle with the configuration more to get it to my liking. Maybe I'll just use start and select(back) for the main menu and weapon menu, and not have a dedicated button for the skill menu. I'll leave the dpad open so I can still navigate menus with it, which feels more natural than using the stick.

Thanks for your help.

oh no i cant bind anything to select(back) now that ive changed it 😭

The old savegame explains it.

You can reset all your settings to default in the options and try again.

There's a pinned post about gamepad improvements, if you have suggestions, please post them there.
