floodie Posted September 27, 2016 Posted September 27, 2016 Hi guys, I am trying to sort out this arcade new age version of Pacman I have but cannot seem to redefine keys in any of its menus?!. Seems weird. I have made a standup machine with an iPac 2 connected so its reading as a keyboard. Default is the arrows for Player 1 which is good but I cant reassign the game to the keys that I have for Enter / Escape etc so cannot venture into or out of the game without pulling the keyboard out the drawer... Thanks

It's a Steam game Hi guys, I am trying to sort out this arcade new age version of Pacman I have but cannot seem to redefine keys in any of its menus?!. Seems weird.

Thanks I had the same problem. Use the XBox 360 controller KB hack... where the game thinks you have a 360 controller attached, but really you're just using a keyboard. In the config file for it you're able to map keys to buttons. I'm not home right now but can send you my config later if you need me to.
floodie Posted September 28, 2016 Author Posted September 28, 2016 Hi Griffin - Ah thanks. So if I have you correct you mean boot up the game, change the controller to "joy pad / xbox 360" or whatever. then you are saying I get the option to map keys on my keyboard to buttons on this pseudo pad?
griffin518 Posted September 28, 2016 Posted September 28, 2016 Here's a zip of the files: https://www.dropbox.com/s/5z4tu9iw99hj0ov/XB360%20KB%20for%20Steam.zip?dl=0 Put this in your C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\PAC-MAN Championship Edition DX+ folder. It will trick that specific game into thinking that an XBox 360 controller is attached. Key mappings may be changed in the text config file.
floodie Posted October 3, 2016 Author Posted October 3, 2016 Superb Griffin.. Ill take a look later when I get home
