Heretic controls problem
« on: December 12, 2010, 04:16:34 pm »
The dingoo in my eyes is perfect, except for one thing,

In the heretic port, it's impossible to change weapons, scroll through items or fly.

I (like so many other people) absolutely love this game, it's just a classic, so many good memories of playing it growing up.

Would anyone be up to fixing the control issues?

Having the controls like eduke32 seems like the only way to fix this, having the ability to bind more than one action to one key, (for example, X button opens doors, also dpad selector - scrolls through items and weapons)

The gp2x port of heretic runs great with all controls usable, good graphics and sound (so I read)...the dingoo can do the same! Graphics and sound are perfect with the current port, its just the controls don't work right, making the game unplayable...

 

Here's the control setup I have for Doom and Duke Nukem 3d, works great

 

Doom:

B button: Fire

Y button: Strafe left

A button: Strafe right

X button: Open doors/activate

Right bumper: Cycle weapons

Left bumper: Toggle autorun

Select: Map

Start: Menu

 

Duke Nukem 3d:

B button: Fire

Y button: Strafe left/center view

A button: Strafe right/center view

X button: Jump

Right bumper: Use inventory item/Dpad looking (hold and press up/down on dpad to look)

Left bumper: crouch/Toggle autorun

Select: Menu

Start: Open,activate/ dpad selector (inventory/weapons scroll)

Yes, the problem with the controls of Heretic / Hexen make it unplayable, but graphics and sound runs perfect. Hopefully someone fix that, I would be grateful forever ..

Wolfenstein is playable, but you cant change weapons. I heard you cant change in Quakux too.

Yes you can. It's just the default config that sucks. You can go to the dingoowiki's quakux page and download a better config from there. It's made by me, and I tried to make it as playable as possible.

I asked Zear Recently if he had any interest in looking at fixing up the controls

He says Johnny on Flame is releasing  new ports with help from himself!

coming very soon!! (its actually on openhandhelds now but the control config wasnt the the proper fixed one, will be updated soon)

good job you guys, look forward to seeing it on news page :)

Hexen works great now, can look up and down and select/use diff item , also the screen is now centered :)

Heretic has some probs looking up and down, and screen isnt centered, Ive let johnny know already, ill have to jump on IRC to see when he will fix

Also i been playing Hexen add-on :Deathkings of the Dark Citadel , id thought i might write a guide to get it to work for noobs lol

You need hexen.wad and hexdd.wad (i think they have to be ver 1.1)

You will want to copy and paste the hhexen.dge in the same folder and rename it to say hexdd.dge (this is so you can have separate  launcher for both hexen and deathkings)

Now setup Gmenu to find the hexdd.dge file

Now edit hexdd.dge on gmenu, in Parameters you need to put     -file hexdd.wad

Now play Deathkings :)

Any news about the fixed ports of Hexen and Heretic? The fixed version has done? Where i can download this? Wiz ports of Hexen-Heretic you can change weapons with Y + L or R... but not in Dingoo versions...

It would be Great if someone worked on Wolf3d abit, the dingux ver doesnt seem to run retail copy either , and the native ver sound is pretty bad and no save

You can change the controls on ROTT but left trigger is mapped to map and you can seem to get rid of it unfortunately , So using Left shoulder as Aim up doesnt work, easy fix if someone was willing

I downloaded and installed Heretic but when I try to play it it just exits right out before it can even load. I am pretty sure I installed it correctly.

here is my dmenu cfg

MenuItem HHeretic
{
Icon = "res/games/hheretic.png"
Name = "HHeretic"
Executable = "./hheretic.dge"
WorkDir = "/usr/local/games/hheretic"
}

Could someone make a port of Heretic/Hexen for the DIngoo A380? The screens size of the old port doesn't fill the whole screen... :(
