How to bind "Crouch" to Left Trigger on controller i

Post » Tue Dec 25, 2012 1:43 am

Well, to start, before anyone suggests it, I can NOT play with a Mouse/Keyboard even though it may be the prefered method. I am just hard-wired for gamepad use, and try as I might, can't use a Mouse/Keyboard as it is painful and akward.

Now, with that out of the way, I am very happy to finally be able to play my favorite classics Doom 1 and 2 and Doom 3 with native gamepad support "right out of the box" :biggrin:

My controller is a Logitech F 310 gamepad, which supports both Xinput and DirectInput via a selection switch on the bottom of the controller. I am using it in Xinput mode.

One problem, however, I can not seem to get the Left Trigger to work for crouch in Doom 3 BFG. It seems to accept the bind just fine in the settings menu, and shows LT and the little graphic icon as though it is properly bound, but yields no response in-game.

I can, however, bind the flashlight and sprint to the left trigger just fine and both work in-game. Crouch will not :nope:

I currently have Crouch bound to the Left shoulder Button "LB" and Sprint bound to the Left Trigger "LT" which does work in the game, but I keep hitting the Left shoulder Button expecting Sprint and getting Crouch and hit the Left Trigger expecting Crouch and and getting Sprint.

It's just an annoyance, and not a real game-breaking issue, but I'd really like to get the button bindings the way I want them seeing as how bindings can be changed and customized right within the game settings.

I am not opposed to editting any *.INI or *.CFG files, if it would work.

Any and all help or tips would be greatly appreciated,
thank you :smile:
