Hi,

I'm trying to play this game with a playstation 3 game controler under Ubuntu 17.04 (with default kernel controler management), and it's really unplayable

The controler is detected as "Controller 0, PLAYSTATION(R)3 Controller, will use generic MonoGameJoystick support."

Default settings are horrible (select to jump ...)

But the worst : a big half of the controler is unconfigurable (only L1 and R2 are, L2 and R1 are not, square triangle circle and X are not ...)

Is there anything i can do to be able to, at least, configure those "main" buttons ?

Thanks in advance

What kernel are you using? How is the controller in jstest-gtk?
Posted April 09, 2018
Kernel is : Linux 4.10.0-42-generic #46-Ubuntu SMP x86_64

Gamepad is detected as "PLAYSTATION(R)3 Controller", with 27 axis and 19 buttons in jstest-gtk, each button is detected

Usualy support is not optimal, but i never had this problem where some buttons are unbindable

Hi spider312,

The SDL2 library included with the game is responsible for controllers support. You can try replacing it with a newer version that might have better support for PS3 gamepad. In case of questions, contact the developer of the Linux build of the game directly using contact information shown on his website: http://flibitijibibo.com/

Kept forgetting to check this. I can confirm what linuxvangog said. I had the same problem with my old install when I tested it. In my case simply renaming the bundled libSDL2-2.0.so.0, which then used the newer system wide version, resulted in a fully functioning PS3 controller.

This is my first forum comment, but THIS. This is what I needed to get the game to recognize my PS1 DualShock in Manjaro 24.0.2 in 2024. I just added a "BKP" prefix to '~/GOG Games/Rogue Legacy/game/lib/libSDL2-2.0.so.0' and '~/GOG Games/Rogue Legacy/game/lib64/libSDL2-2.0.so.0' and the controls worked.
