Joy2Key control mapping is a nightmare

[shutuptaryn]

Hi everyone, so I have Joy2Key installed in order to play TR2 with a DS4 controller. I have the controls mapped to mimic the default controls with some slight changes and to emulate playing on a PS1. Here it is:

Now in-game, I have the controls mapped like this:

But for some reason, the R1 button makes Lara jump when it is mapped to make her side step right. Triangle makes her pull out her gun AND side-step, and roll makes her pull out her gun with it. I have tried enabling and disabling numlock to see if that helps but it doesn't seem to make a difference. What am I missing or doing wrong?

The in-game control settings include both Default Keys and User Keys, and they are BOTH ACTIVE at the same time.
So, by assigning controller buttons as User Keys in-game AND assigning controller buttons via JoyToKey to the Default Keys of the game, you will end up with DUPLICATE ACTIONS for the same controller button.
Ideally, you should leave all of the in-game User Keys as they were (no controller assignments) and do all of the mapping in JoyToKey. (Except for "look", if your keyboard doesn't have a number pad.)

From your two screenshots, the assignments seem consistent, but do the game and JoyToKey use the same button numbers for your controller? For example, for the "jump" action, is "Joy1" in-game the same as "Button1" in JoyToKey? (Note that JoyToKey highlights each controller button when you press it.)

It's also worth checking if you have Steam's controller support enabled, since it could also be passing mapped controls through to the game.

I have to ask, how exactly did you change the input to those? I try putting things like Space and / into the prompt that opens up when I try to modify keys but it doesn't let me, it's weird because I keep seeing screenshots like yours were you don't have to specify l-alt or have the / and space as so on there but when I'm mapping keys I have a preset of limited options that don't include those and the fact that I can't type them in either cause they don't register
