Can't Equip Charms? (Bug?)
Hi, I just started playing the game and am really enjoying it so far! Unfortunately, when I received my first charm, the button to equip it while on the bench didn't show up. It simply said "Press", and with no button. Is this a common issue? Anything I can do about this? Using a Logitech F310 if that matters. :conwayheadscratch:

It's probably related to the controller, yes. You just press the inventory button and can change your charms from there, while sitting at the bench. Use the shoulder buttons to change the tabs in the inventory.

Just to make sure I understand correctly, is this a hardware issue or software issue? Anything I can do about this or should I just use keyboard instead?

Switch your controller to D Mode.

If your controler has problems with the game after trying other options, try controller configuration programs.

I was going crazy since my controller (a cheap one since I only have it for pc and only have pc) didn't worked with my game, but found a program called Xpadder that solved my problem.

Switch your controller to D Mode.

Hadn't considered trying this, but definitely will when I get home. Does the game only support DInput or something? Very odd considering everything about F310's XInput works besides the back button... Thanks in advance; this is probably the solution I'm looking for!

It's a known issue with logitech controllers.

Try double-tapping the map button on an F310, that has worked for me.

Ran into the same issue with my Logitech 310. The fix is to flip the switch on the back to "D" mode. The "Back" button then opens the charm menu.
