Playing with a controller.

[korzic]

Hello!

I recently ordered Ys: Oath in Felghana for the PC, and was wondering if it'd possible to play this game with a controller. Given my familiarity with the gameplay of the PS2 version of Ys VI: Ark of Napishtim, I think it would be a lot more comfortable playing with a controller, as opposed to using the keyboard. The controller I want to use is a Playstation 2 Logitech Cordless Action controller. Is there a way to hook up the controller to my computer? If so, could someone point me to the product(s) I'd need to make this possible?

Thanks for any help!

Yes, you can buy USB adapters for controllers for pretty much any system. Try Ebay or amazon.com, that's where I bought mine. Look under video game accessories. But for some reason, not all controllers will work. It took a while, but I finally found a wireless PS2 controller that works with the adapter. Also, when playing Oath, I've found that a Microsoft Sidewinder works really well. Hope this helps you out.

Thank you for the information!

I just bought an adapter off eBay; hope it works. Ys: Oath in Felghana was just shipped, so I guess I'll know for certain in several days.

And it works! Still need to get some calibration issues sorted out, although it's only noticeable in the menus. Thanks once again for your help, Duke!

In case anyone needs to know, I purchased a Mayflash Super Dual Box Pro adapter.
