User guide

Misc

Screen position and size can be modified by opening up config.cfg modifying the following values:

xbox_screen_pos_y "0"
xbox_screen_pos_x "0"
xbox_screen_size_y "0"
xbox_screen_size_x "0"

These values are relatative. For example xbox_screen_size_x "-60" means reduce the horizontal screen size by 60 pixels i.e 480 minus 60 = 420 pixels

Inverting look on gamepad can be set by adjusting xbox_invert_look in config.cfg from "0" to "1".

Notes on CDDA

CDDA audio works fine, however expect a slight drop in framerates since there is a performance hit associated with streaming audio as it requires CPU time.

R - Fire

L - Jump

D-Pad Up/Down - Next/Previous weapon

Left-Stick Y - Walk

Left Stick X - Strafe

Right-Stick Y - Look up/down

Right-Stick X - Look left/right

Controls can be customized via the Options menu, and by editing your config.cfg files.

Screenshots

Known issues

At any resolution greater than 320x240 the crosshair does not work right in menu or on screen.

The onscreen keyboard is hyper speed in the console. In menus it is fine.
