Easy number input.

Post by stebbyman »

So, trying to set this up for dragon age...using wireless 360...i believe you fight/attack by a quickbar (numbers 1-0). I'm thinking a good way to program this would be something like this. The right joy is already set up for some camera and movement...can you hold a trigger down, which could replace the right joys config with a circlular cylce through of 1-0, then release the trigger to select that number. soo. your running around and you want to attack...you hold the Rtrigger, point your RJoy directly right that equals 3 then release the Rtrigger to tell the game that that hold+direction combo on your pad = 3 on the keyboard......once you let go of the trigger your running around again...something like that....
A better suggestion be cool too.

I havn't played Dragon Age yet so....kinda banking on the pad working. Thanks for any help this programs pretty slick.

This will give you what you want mostly. Hold the right trigger and move the right stick to one of the eight directions for the outer numbers layed out like a phone. You'll need to hold it in position for 3/10 of a second then the command will execute once. Press the center stick button for 5. For 0 you just squeeze and release the right trigger. If its held longer than 3/10 of a second then 0 is not sent.

I couldn't get the command to wait for the release of the trigger but the advantage here is you can send number one after another by just moving the stick to a new position.

Hope it helps.

Good tip.
As you know, many mmorpgs use the number keys for skills/spells.
I gave up trying to use an 8 way directional for skill slots cause I found it impossible to hit diagonals reliably without accidentally hinting adjacent skills.
I'll use this & give it another try. It will help me boil down the controls to 1 or 2 sets in Guild Wars.

Thanks

(Maybe this should be included under the new Profile Advanced Tips?)
