UPDATE: *Official* Fix for A.I. glitch in the PC port

[Forte224]

This thread seems to be staying active so I'll keep adding updates here until it dies or something. The top update is the most recent one:

UPDATE (02/03/17): vJoy begone!! An official patch was released that fixes the A.I. bug (and the sound bug) Now stop bumping my thread! :P

UPDATE (01/21/17): So if you plug in a second controller, go to controller options and apply the second, third or fourth character slot to that controller, then leave that character on Auto, they'll behave normally. So for example, apply the 2nd controller to Player 2. Then leave Player 2 on Auto, and they'll attack normally. Credit to Lloyd421 for finding this fix. Link to his thread: http://steamcommunity.com/app/429660/discussions/0/133255603285443087/
EDIT: Using vJoy lets you assign 3 "fake" controllers to players 2-4, so this could permanantely fix the problem, but obviously an official fix would still be nice. Also, I haven't seen any issues, but who knows how safe vJoy really is

UPDATE (01/27/17): Found something interesting. First of all, someone said if you make the 1 player slot into an Auto A.I. they behave normally. I can confirm this is true. Second, if you go into strategy and turn the 2, 3, or 4 player slot A.I. ally's action from "Be Agressive" to "Hold Nothing Back" they will attack more frequently, but they'll be sort of laggy about it. For instance, Velvet will combo really slowly, as if she presses X, then waits, then presses X again, then waits, etc. Such a weird bug.

I've seen it mentioned on other threads but no official thread. There's a glitch in the PC version where your A.I. party members will only attack once and then walk backwards, they won't perform any combos. There's video proof right here:

Let's hope this gets attention and is fixed soon!

EDIT: Just to be clear this isn't my video, I found it, then checked my game after getting the first party member and saw it was the same and that many other people were having the problem

You have to disable one of them, only have 3 emulated controllers active.

Yea, diid that but it turns out I cant have DS4 running while vJoy is also on. That means I cant use my ps4 controller.

[Whens Witcher 3?]

As much as vjoy makes combat a joy even on Intense I'll sit this one out until the official fix is available.

But everyone and their dog confirms that vjoy fix works so, have fun everyone!

The game can detect your PS4 controller (without DS4) though you have to manually bind all the buttons in Options before using it. It detects it as Wireless Controller IIRC.

in my case vjoy doesn't work. It disappears when I add an extra device so I went old school... SCP tool connected 2 ps3 controllers, using an xbox360 wireless receiver to add an xbox controller and then I use the ps4 controller to play myself....

Glad I saw this thread. I was thinking about buying this but I am def going to hold off until they fix this bug. Having to use a 3rd party software is unacceptable to me regardless of how easy it may be to set up.

If they do care about thier product they will patch this quickly, if not, well it's not a team I want to support.

Activate 3 controllers in Vjoy and use SCPtoolkit to activate the controller you'll be playing with

What do you think? :P

[The Tempted Man]

I have never even noticed this bug before O_o

[OnlyOffensive]

yea it might be hard to "notice" if you haven't seen proper AI, that goes for me aswell. Honestly i had suspicion that something is wrong, because i remember that in Zesteria i could choose manual-auto control for every minion in menu and instantly noticed that it is missing in this game.
AI in this game waaaaaaaaaay better than in Zesteria. In Zesteria it was like whatever, because you could use merge, and manually comboing 2 characters isn't that hard, but 4 is already impossible, but in this game ♥♥♥♥♥♥ AI might cause problems for average players.

[The Tempted Man]

I dare say that this bug persists on Go all out setting for the AI and unlike OP, they hit one time, run away, run closer to land one hit and repeat the same thing over and over, on fight to 25% of health, they are much more alive and attack frequently

So I saw some where having troubles with the XBOne controller and Djoy. I was having the tilting joy stick problem.

Use the 2-4 for Djoy

POV Hat Switch for 2-4 set to Continuous and 1. Also Check enable effects to the right (should check all the boxes). Make sure you are hitting apply for each one.

Restart computer

Start Tales

go to controls and set player 2 vjoy device (1) set player 3 vjoy device (2) set player 4 vjoy device (3) BEFORE SAVING AND EXITING go back to player 1 and set player 1 from keyboard to game pad Xinput Controller.

save it all by pressing start

Fixed my XboxOne controller no longer uncontrollably looked up with xjoy


Honestly with this it feels almost like cheating. I have the p1-4 targeting so I can tell at a glance what the AI is targeting.

thx for solution
two thing i got issue so far is,
when i go to "select" menu i cant choose anything aside back to game, and it seem overwrite my main controller because the symbil is not square, circle like how controller is
