13 years agoProblem with controls
I am using PC version of the new NFS most wanted. I mistakenly set 'S' key for both 'drive' and 'menu down'. As a result I can net change settings of the controller. I can not select the controller o...
OK, this is how I polished this turd and was able to finally reset the controls, your milage may vary. I deleted the "NFSSAVE.config" file from the User/{Your User Name}/My Documents/Critereon Games/Need For Speed Most Wanted folder. Start Origin back up and Origin will give you a message that the save files are out of sync... DO NOT CLICK OK! ....instread, close the window by hitting the "X" in the upper right hand corner. At that point it will ask you if you want to use the cloud save or the local one to fix this. Choose local. .Started the game and listened to that Muse song that I really liked the first 14000 times I heard it while contantly screwing with this turd.... but I degress....
When you are able to have controll of the car, hit escape to get into the settings. I use a Logitech Momo Force.... the old one...been great though for a long time.... I had to both assign keyboard keys for some tasks and buttons on the wheel for others. Make sure you do not assign a function to the wheel that is the same as the keyboard. I had to assign the "Easy Drive" keys to my ASDW keys and not the keypad numbers..... There are a few other keys you will have to reassign, but after a good three hours screwing with it I have a solution for me.
This is just about as bad as The Run. These are really fun games, but being Console ports and Criterions PC port team sucks balls, the series has really suffered for the PC...... Maybe EA needs to let someone else continue this franchise?
Will that `Fix` work for me?
I went to install a PS3 controller and noticed that when I try to alter my keypad/controller settings, the game switches to a different screen on the menu list.
I must have double set the enter button for that or something.
I cannot set my PS3 Controller and now I cannot alter my Keyboard settings (which is not a problem in itself, but I did want to get the PS3 controller settings adjusted and working).
Driving high-speed cars using left and right WASD is is lunatic. Would the NUTTERS at E.A. do that in real life (QED; they should have made it foolproof)?
I nearly got the drill out at one point. 😕mileyvery-happy:
Seriously; have one button `Set` to "RESET CONTROLS" or something E.A.
