How to play Versus with controller and keyboard?

[Mag]

How to play Versus with controller and keyboard? I'm unable to set my keyboard as my controller2. Is this even possible? Can I play Versus (= local 1v1 right?) if I bought a second controller?

Sorry brother, you can't do it yet. Either wait for the patch or get a second input : \

So with a 2nd controller it IS possible?

Yeah; tested and confirmed on my machine.

Thank you for your help

They really need to add this back , it's really useful. And it also was on IV so I can't see why they wouldn't put it by default on V.

Well, a lot of things were on IV and not on V, let's hope everything gets added eventually. IV also got a lot better over time :)

iv got an xbox360 controller that the game can detect. It treats it as a player 1 device for some reason, is there a way to make the game treat as not a player 1 device?

If you only have one controller, it will always be the player 1 device.

It looks like Capcom is aware that people want to use keyboards for 2 player local versus though and are working on a fix: http://www.eventhubs.com/news/2016/feb/17/street-fighter-5s-online-experience-shaping-capcom-addresses-remaining-launch-issues/

which stick/sticks did you test with Kuraudo?

did it run native to the games detection or did you have to use a program to get the second controller to work?

How did you do it? I've tried to run a stick (player 1) and a pad (player 2) through joy2key/x360ce but they both map both controllers as player 1 for some reason.

I have a hori edge (360) and old madcatz TE (360). Whichever one you plug in first automatically gets player 1 and the second will automatically get player 2.

I'm on Windows 8.1 (might be relevant) so the drivers for both will download automatically.

The order that you plug them in is irrelevant; what I mean by this is that starting the game up first won't prevent you from using your controller. You can plug it in afterwards just fine and they'll automatically find their proper slots (this was a problem in SF4).

Because there was probably interest, I went ahead and took my Hori Hayabusa V.4 (ps4) and plugged it in as well.

Same exact behavior once you download and setup the x360ce drivers they talk about in the top post as a stop gap solution for ps4/3 sticks with one caveat: You have to manually set your ps4 controller to whatever player slot you want it to be (1 or 2).

Something that isn't immediately clear to people using the x360ce drivers is that you have to put them into your street fighter executable folder. This is usually StreetFighterV/StreetFighterV/Binaries/Win64 if you're 64bit.
NOTE: this is not the same thing as the toplevel StreetFighterV/ directory where this is a completely different StreetFighterV.exe

I hope that helps guys! I hope you guys have as much of a blast as I've been having with this game!

See you in the heart of battle!

I think if they are both running through joytokey they will both map to player 1, not 100% on this but i think thats how it works, if you use a stick that the game recognizes without a program enabling it then joytokey and a native stick should work

Sorry for the necro bump, but this fits my problem perfectly. I am trying to play VS with a keyboard and a controller, even tinkering with Xbox360ce, but can't get this to work in any way. Actually, I even have a Steam Controller too, but still can't make SFV accept any of these as a controller for Player 2.

Seems absolute madness that Capcom hasn't fixed such a huge thing in a whole year.. it's really so?

I can plug in my dinput device and make it work for P2 while P1 uses keyboard.

Yeah, I've read around that dinput devices don't get autoconfigured as P1 automatically, but Xbox controller is an XInput device.. any way to make it work as P2? Or make the Steam controller work as P2, either would be enough.
