Wanted to reach out to the community for optimal controller joystick mapping in Descent Rebirth DX1 and DX2 on a Windows 10 Box.  I am using an Xbox controller.  Please see attached and below.  I have googled some of the below question and did not see any recent information; so apologies if I missed some of the below answers.


1) Had a question on the Axes Section of Joystick Setup.  May I what the correct setting should be of that section?
2) What do I need to set the joystick deadzone to the bottom option in the controller settings?
3) My setup is attached.  May I ask what I am missing or should be changed ?  Or what have others found to be better Xbox controller mapping?
4) Anyone have a diagram of the Xbox Controller button names in rebirth and a what buttons on the joystick they map to?  Or at least the workflow / naming convention of button names on the Xbox controller to button names within Rebirth?

Left stick:
Vertical   =Move forwards/backwards
Horizontal   =Slide Left/Right


Right stick:
Vertical    =Turn up/down
Horizontal    =Turn left/right
Press right stick =flares


R/L Triggers (select inverted) = banking
LB = Fire Secondary weapon (missiles)
RB = Fire Primary weapon

Y = Change Primary weapon
X = Change Secondary weapon
A = Slide up
B = Slide down

Thank you @Scyphi. Good point.  Probably best to go with video captures.
Is there a place to download demo files for D1 or D2 Rebirth you can recommend? Ie even short ones.

I personally haven't ever really recorded any demos from either game, much less anything longer than a minute, tops (and those that I did record are long gone by now), so unfortunately, I can't help you much there.

I've also never seen a demo file that runs anywhere near as long as 20 minutes done by anyone else. Not to say no one has ever done so of course (though I'm not sure the game allows a single demo to be recorded while playing over multiple levels--never tried, personally), but I'm not sure there's ever been enough interest by players to try. These days, most would use a separate screen-grabbing app to record the footage for uploading on places like YouTube rather than use D1/D2's demo-capturing system, so I'm not sure how many people are going to be able to come forward with anything like you're asking for.

I mean, if you do, great, but...don't know how likely it might be.  :(

Running DX1 and 2 Rebirth, I was looking for demos files to run within D1 and D2 Rebirth that are longer than 20 minutes to run to showcase the game. Really anything on demo file is fine, just wanted a long one to run kinda like a screen saver on a windows box. Apologies for the new user question, but the only demo files I could find were super short in length.

Descent 2 Workshop still lives, soon enough I should be posting builds on Github, though if you want one you can always bug me for one. It'll probably have bugs and unimplemented features, since at the moment I'm focusing effort on features that people are demonstrating that they want. HAM and HXM editing is pretty mature now, and at least a couple of people are trying to make levelsets with it ATM.

But I'm still around and working on crap.

No problem!  Didn't mean to nag about it.

Well, I have occasionally daydreamed about a 6DOF game that's open world. Not, you know, sandbox open world, more like...what's a good example...uh, Breath of the Wild open world.

I'm talking about other gaming genres here.
without further adieu, what other genres would you like to see mixed with 6DOF?  (we've got Sublevel Zero which is 6DOF and Rogue-Like)
Personally I would like to see a 6DOF game mixed with Metroidvania (similar gameplay to Metroid and Castlevania: Symphony Of The the Night) but in first person (obviously)
