Split screen/ local co-op

[Number39]

Hey guys, can I play this game in split screen locally? I have two controllers.

[HelenaEX2]

Yes, just is kinda tricky do the bad programing.

Spin one joystick on the first controller and check that the camera or character is moving, while doing this press start on the second controller and split screen will activate.

It worked. Thank you.

IT WON'T WORK FOR ME!
We managed to get it working just fine the first time we tried, and ever since we cannot get split screen to work, no matter what we try. Please help.

Make sure both controllers are working fine. Start the episode then when it loads to the last save, press start to go to pause the game, then on the second controller keep clicking all the buttons and keep doing these steps until it finally works xD
Sometimes it won't work on the first time, that happens with me too.

Still no joy, sadly. I'm distraught because we really want to play this game coop!

What controllers are you using?

On my case PS3 afterglow controller.

I usually play this game on campaing with coop partners with remote play. This are the list of controllers used by my partners.

XB360 controller, XB1 controller, digital Steam controller (Steam Link app on android literally using the screen as controller) and PS4 controller.

The only issue i had is to activate the split screen bc sometimes when the second player press starts they pause the game. Again do this:

Is the constant way i found to activate split screen instantly.

These fixes didn't work for me. My inputs are x360 via hidhide+ds4windows on dualshock 4s

I am using two ps2 controllers and an app called x360ce and the split screen works fine. If it did not work for you then try changing the controllers or the way they are connected to your pc.

Make sure you're in Big Picture mode.

If you had to use Steam Big Picture Mode that means your Steam Input is screwing with you .

Better check that first.

If you had official XB and PS controllers yes, you need to use those programs to make it work (Something that i never undestand why and it is ironi bc generic controllers are detected as XB360 controllers and do not require extra programs).

I've obviously tried that. No joy.

Did you try to check steam input configs? That stuff creates more issues rather than fix.
