Antichamber played with 360 PC Pad - Problem
Posted: Sat Mar 29, 2014 3:22 pm
Hi, long-time GRcade lurker here.
Just wondered if anyone could help with this problem regarding Antichamber, played on an Acer Aspire laptop through an Xbox 360 PC pad. Haven't done much PC gaming but picked up some stuff on a couple of recent Humble Bundle sales.
*********!!!!!MILD GAME SPOILERS TO FOLLOW!!!!*************
Things were rolling along fine with Antichamber played on the gamepad until the moment I picked up the yellow gun, then realised that I was now required to use the 'middle mouse' button (clicking the scroll wheel thingy) to use it. Unfortunately, there seems to be no button on the pad mapped to this mouse button and I've had trouble finding out how to map the function to the pad, or if that's even possible.
I've invested in a gaming mouse to get around the problem but have never been a big fan of using a keyboard for gaming (even when I started out on the C64!) and am finding this solution less comfortable than using a pad.
Does anyone have any idea if there's a way to continue playing the game on the gamepad for a PC-semi-literate dummy like me? I understand I could well be overlooking something obvious.
Thanks in advance for any info you can provide!
