Gamepad support in latest steam version?
« on: December 20, 2008, 01:54:06 am »
hi there

I'm wondering how to enable gamepad (like a x360 pad) controls in Aquaria. In the last version I had, remember a box coming up with an option to enable gamepad. With the newest version no such box comes up, and i can't find it in the options.

thanks

Look for an .exe file called Aquaria Config wherever you downloaded the game: it brings up all the main options (frame buffer effects, vsync, resolution, fullscreen, and gamepad support. After you change the settings, click launch to enter the game. Hope that helps!  :)

It'll be somewhere like...

c:\program files\steam\steamapps\common\aquaria\aqconfig.exe

thanks for the replies, i got it.

Have you guys considered doing an XBLA or PSN version? I think you'd find support for this gem on consoles.

a port is needed if your computer doesnt have bluetooth and/or for those that dont have computers at all.

wii audience is massive and its a shame for it to go untapped. if world of goo can appear on wiiware.........
