| For those who have been wondering about the leftover splitscreen code in left 4 dead and how to get it working, I have gotten it working. Below are the steps to get it working yourself 1. Find an XBOX360 controller 2. Plug it in 3. Edit your 360controller.cfg file located in your \\left4dead\\cfg folder if you want the 360 controller to be player one use this as your 360controller.cfg unbindall // Prevent mouse/keyboard control when gamepad is in use (to prevent autoaim exploit) joystick 1 joy_advanced "1" // use advanced joystick options (allows for multiple axes) joy_name "L4D Xbox360 Joystick Configuration" joy_advaxisx 3 // x-axis controls GAME_AXIS_SIDE (strafing left and right) joy_advaxisy 1 // y-axis controls GAME_AXIS_FORWARD (move forward and back) joy_advaxisz 0 // z-axis is treated like a button joy_advaxisr 2 // r-axis controls GAME_AXIS_PITCH (look up and down) joy_advaxisu 4 // u-axis controls GAME_AXIS_YAW (look left and right) joy_advaxisv 0 // v-axis is unused joy_forwardsensitivity ǃ.0 // movement sensitivity joy_sidesensitivity 1.0 joy_forwardthreshold 0.1 // movement dead zone settings joy_sidethreshold 0.1 joy_pitchsensitivity 1.0 // look sensitivity joy_yawsensitivity ǃ.5 joy_pitchthreshold 0.1 // look dead zone settings joy_yawthreshold 0.0 joy_variable_frametime 1 joy_autoaimdampenrange 0.85 joy_autoaimdampen 0.5 joy_lowend 0.65 joy_lowmap 0.15 joy_accelscale 3.0 joy_accelmax 4.0 joy_response_move 5 joy_response_look 1 joy_autoaimdampen 0.3 joy_autoaimdampenrange 0.85 joyadvancedupdate // advanced joystick update allows for analog control of move and look // Alternate control 2 cmd2 bind "0" "slot10" cmd2 bind "1" "slot1" cmd2 bind "2" "slot2" cmd2 bind "3" "slot3" cmd2 bind "4" "slot4" cmd2 bind "5" "slot5" cmd2 bind "6" "slot6" cmd2 bind "7" "slot7" cmd2 bind "8" "slot8" cmd2 bind "9" "slot9" cmd2 bind "a" "+moveleft" cmd2 bind "c" "+voicerecord" cmd2 bind "d" "+moveright" cmd2 bind "e" "+use" cmd2 bind "f" "impulse 100" cmd2 bind "h" "motd" cmd2 bind "m" "chooseteam" cmd2 bind "q" "lastinv" cmd2 bind "r" "+reload" cmd2 bind "s" "+back" cmd2 bind "t" "impulse 201" cmd2 bind "u" "messagemode2" cmd2 bind "w" "+forward" cmd2 bind "x" "+mouse_menu QA" cmd2 bind "y" "messagemode" cmd2 bind "z" "+mouse_menu Orders" cmd2 bind "`" "toggleconsole" cmd2 bind "SPACE" "+jump" cmd2 bind "TAB" "+showscores" cmd2 bind "ESCAPE" "cancelselect" cmd2 bind "SHIFT" "+speed" cmd2 bind "CTRL" "+duck" cmd2 bind "F1" "Vote Yes" cmd2 bind "F2" "Vote No" cmd2 bind "F5" "jpeg" cmd2 bind "MOUSE1" "+attack" cmd2 bind "MOUSE2" "+attack2" cmd2 bind "MOUSE3" "+zoom" cmd2 bind "MWHEELUP" "invprev" cmd2 bind "MWHEELDOWN" "invnext" // controller1 bindings +jlook // enable joystick look bind "A_BUTTON" "+jump;+menuAccept" // (A) button -

IT IS NECESSARY THAT WHAT EVER YOU SET THE 360 CONTROLLERS PLAYER TO BE THAT YOU HAVE THE CONTROLLERS LIGHT BE ON THAT PLAYER! IF YOU DO NOT HAVE 4. IT IS NECESSARY THAT WHAT EVER YOU SET THE 360 CONTROLLERS PLAYER TO BE THAT YOU HAVE THE CONTROLLERS LIGHT BE ON THAT PLAYER! IF YOU DO NOT HAVE 2 CONTROLLERS, THE PLAYER WITH THE CONTROLLER MUST BE PLAYER 1! 5. Boot up the game 6. open console and type "Exec 360controller.cfg" without the quotations 7. Set your split screen mode to either Horizontal-Cut (ss_splitmode 1) or Vertical-Cut (ss_splitmode 2) through the console, vertical cut is meant for widescreen monitors while the horizontal for standard monitors 8. Connect to a server, Join a server using the command "connect 2" you can either find a server that you want to joins IP or create a dedicated server and join that 9. PLAY CO-OP THE WAY ITS MEANT TO BE PLAYED! This is really fantastic VALVe is the last developer I would expect to make a splitscreen pc game and I am crying with joy that this is possible, note the fact that the game is running at 1680X1050 in those screenshots with a solid 60fps on both screens with max settings 4xaa on only an 8800gt. Hope this helps those who want to play in splitscreen on their pc, hopefully a patch will come out that can make this process much simpiler. source http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=745113 |
