SF2NA unresponsive Controls (with Joystick) - FIX
SOLUTION:
This mod is based on SF2NA ExpPack
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When SF2NA came out TK messed up the controls.ini file so it doesn't match what the in-game controls show.
He released a fix but it not works for all Joysticks.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So on this page (Link below) you have explanation what to do - by user "iahn755" he explained all well:
You need manually to edit - to place a name of your controller in "Controls".ini
this usually fix the problem
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Play & Enjoy
