Dual analog sticks on N64 First Person Shooters (Goldeneye, PerfectDark)



Someone asked about this in the GeForce forums. Since I did the write up, I figured I would post it here if anyone cared.

Games like Goldeneye and Perfect Dark can be tailored to work as well as well as current first person shooters with the latest Mupen64plusAE. I personally use the nightly builds found here http://www.paulscode.com/source/Mupe...AE/AutoBuilds/

What you need to do is click the menu icon in the top left corner. First, go into settings. Check the box under input that says "share controller". From there, go into profiles>controller profiles. Tap on "shield" and click copy. Name the new profile something like 2ndConFPS, (for 2nd controller first person shooter), or even just Shield2 to make it easy if you aren't using a keyboard.

Go down and choose that new profile and click "edit" then edit the controls for analog stick and assign each direction to the RIGHT analog on the controller. Not the left, because that's already mapped to the first player controller. Map the RIGHT trigger to Z.

Now you are ready to assign the controllers as part of an in-game profile specifically for GoldenEye (or Perfect Dark, etc). Click on GoldenEye from the game launcher menu. The menu will come in from the left that says "Resume" "Restart" and "Settings". Click settings, and choose controller 2 profile. Controller 1 should already be defaulted to Shield. If not set it as Shield. Then click controller 2 profile and set it as 2ndConFPS or Shield2, or whatever you named it.

From there, start the game and the rest is done from the menus of the actual rom. Just choose from one of the 2 controller styles. Galore and Goodhead are the best (insert dirty joke here). One is inverted, the other isn't.

P.S. Many of the modern first person shooters have the move/strafe control on the left, with look/turn on the right. To do that, you can do one of two things. First just switch the player one and two profiles. So for example, the profile that uses the right analog and right trigger, make that the profile for player one, then do the standard profile as player two. Or you can make a 3rd profile and assign the second and third, etc. Let me know if you have questions.



A New Person to the world of Rooting



I ask for some help or rather come to you guys for help. I am currently using a Samsung Galaxy S4 (As you could tell), I believe, the S4 I have is unlocked, meaning that it is Rooted and do have questions for you veterans, the guys that know how to do it right. So my first question is, what ROM do I use and how do I install one? Do you have one that you prefer, works best and makes the S4 a smooth, great experience? I would like to have a ROM, that gives me the Lollipop experience, if that helps out to what ROM I'm looking for. Secondly, is it a necessity for me to have a SD Card? I don't currently own one and though I am new to Rooting, I have tried this before and failed, almost getting my S4 bricked because I didn't know what I was doing, which is why I have come to you guys :)

Much help is appreciated.
