Pad configuration

Overview

Even if the many common pads are natively supported by this game, some are not, and unfortunately there’s no way to reconfigure you keys in game.

Editing your configuration

1) Go to the Options and set the “dev console”

2) Press the usual “console” key (which is just bellow the Escape key. It’s a ~ on a US keyboard, or a ² on a french one, for instance) :

3) Plug exactly one pad, and type “input_log” in the console to get your pad GUID. Copy that number somewhere (you can make a screeshot for instance)

4) Type “input_test” in your console to be able to find what your buttons’ number are for TowerFall

5) Next, go in your steam installation directory, in SteamsteamappscommonTowerFallGamepad_Config

6) Copy one of the XML there (the Xbox360.xml for instance) and name it with your new pad name

7) Edit that XML, and update the “name” part (with the name you want to see in game) and the “id” part, with the GUID you got at step 3

8) Now you can edit the configuration itself with the numbers you got at step 4

9) You can edit the icons section too to have something looking better in game.

10) Start the game and enjoy!
