How is your controller set up?

[Thepandaman]

How is your controller set up for PSO, and do you change it regularly? I haven't changed the position of Resta on my characters since I started them, I always have it in R + B. Do you have all of your techniques, (f you're a force) on the menu?
And, does anyone have the camera / opposite menu set up the other way, cos I don't know anyone who does. The reason for this is get some inspiration for ways to have my menu set up, just for a change. This (sometimes with a bit of change) is my current set-up on my FOmar:

B: Foie
A: Jellen
X: Gifoie
RB: Resta
RA: Gizonde
RX: Barta

If I'm doing FoS I put grants on there etc..

[Ketchup345]

RAmarl-

Some people prefer helping others, so they have the healing power set to a key, along with moons or the reviver technique.

As for me, I just keep a reviver and dimate thing up. I won't heal other people, but I will be kind enough to revive them when they die.

I use a Dark Flow and J-Sword (probably duped, I got them in trades) to hit enemies with. They have like 100% accuracy so I don't even bother using the weak hit, I just use the super and ultimate hits. So I bind those two, along with dimates to my keys. Then when I hold R in, I have a moon binded, and the healing thing if I run out of dimates. I also have a fire/ice/lightning attack depending on what level it is. I might bind Sol into a key if I am in caves. It depends on what my surroundings are.

[Vicious128]

A=Weak attack
B=Hard attack
X=Special attack
R+A=Jellen/Zalure (depends if another FO is around)
R+B=Varies by area
R+X=Resta

[flash_fire]

FOmar

B-Heavy Attack
A-Weak Attack
X-Resta
R+B-Jellen
R+A-Zalure
R+X-Rabarta

[anwserman]

This is for the X-Box controller now - or think how it was in the Dreamcast days.

(X) - Light Attack
(A) - Hard Attack
(B) - Resta
(RX) - Jellen
(RA) - Dimate
(RB) - Zalure

For boss battles, replace the above with:
(RX) - Difluid
(RB) - Moon/Reverser

This is pretty much universal for all of my 6 characters. Oh, the reason why I switched Light and Hard around is that I start a 3-attack combo by using Light, and I don't have to worry about going through a telepipe, picking up an item, etc.

I had that trouble when I was doing Fake in Yellow. The move I was using to tag them was Gizonde, which was set to A, but there was so many items on the ground I was just picking up the items and the rappies got away http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_frown.gif so I changed it.

[kingmurp]

HUnney
B- weak
A- Hard
X- Attack tech
RB- Resta
RA- Fluid
RX- Zalure

RAmarl
B- weak
A- Hard
X- Jellen
RB- Resta
RA- Fluid
RX- Zalure

It's pretty similar with my HUcast. My Fo has a variety of setups, depending on location, equipment, etc.

[Omni-Man]

I dunno about most of you, but your quick tech menu is JUST as important as your hotkeys.

My FOmar setup:

B=Weak
A=Hard
X=Special

RB=Rafoi (boxes, dimenian stylers, traps)
RA=Rabarta (E2 Lilies, Canane Rings, Enemy Control)
RX=Razonde (Claws, Gibbons, Most Machines)

Quick Menu Tech Setup:

[Foi]
[Zonde]
[Gifoi]
[Grants]
[Megid]
Gizonde
Gibarta
Rafoi
Rabarta
Razonde
Barta
Ryuker
Reverser
[Deband]
[Shifta]
[Zalure]
[Jellen]
[Anti]
[Resta]

The brackets indicate techs i use frequently; you'll notice they are at the endpoints of the list as to make them easier to access.

That's my setuo, and it works VERY nicely for me http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_cool.gif

[Travvell]

Standard set up which in my opinion is just the best one. I never tried out the others but I`m fine with the one I`m using now.

[eNvious]

i have only 2 chars which im playing HUnewearl and HUcast, with

HUnewearl: A = normal attack
B = Strong attack
X = Gizonde http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif (i can leech exp with it)
RA = Resta
RB = Shifta
RX = deband

HUcast: A = normal attack
B = strong attack
X = monomate
RA = damage trap
RB = cpnfuse trap
RX = freeze trap

So true. I keep ryker where it starts, right at the bottom, and put shifta, deband and other support and healing techniques at the top and bottom. Took me ages to figure out how to change the order lol

[MXdude]

A-week
B-Resta
X-Strong
RA-jellen(i think)
RB-difluid
RX-(honetly i dont know) i barely ever use R exept whne i have a PB

[SorceryMaster]

HUcast
A-norm att
B-Dimate
X-hard att
RA-special att
RB-freeze trp
RX-confuse trp

it pwnz, but i think soon i need to put in trimates instead of dimates lol

[Eihwaz]

Matt, HUmar:
B: Resta
A: Weak Attack
X: Strong Attack
R+B: Zalure
R+A: Anti
R+X: Jellen

Shade, FOnewm:

X: Jellen/Gifoie
R+B: Razonde
R+A: Rabarta
R+X: Rafoie

Real predictable, eh? http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

[Nai_Calus]

HUmar:

B: Resta
A: Normal Attack
X: Heavy Attack
R+B: Anti

HUcaseal:

B: Dimate

R+A: Freeze Trap
R+X: Damage Trap

RAmarl:

R+B: Anti
R+A: Jellen
R+X: Zalure

FOmar/marl/newearl:

B: Resta
A: Jellen
X: Zalure
R+B: Anti
R+A: Reverser/Moons
R+X: Usually Rabarta

FOnewm: See HUmar.

[astuarlen]

RAmarl/HUnewearl:

B - Resta

A - Light Attack

X - Rafoie

RB - Zalure (alone/no FO)/Rabarta (lily freezing)/Difluid

RA - Heavy Attack

RX - Jellen (alone/no FO)/Moons (ET/WT/Boss)

FOmarl:

B - Resta

A/X/RA - Varies

RB - Zalure (unless boss)

RX - Jellen (unless boss)

As far as organizing my tech list goes, I've kinda developed a feel for where the techs are by default so it's not too hard to get to them fairly easily at this point.

[ElizaBluefull]

I have 3 setups for my FOmarl: Ep1 all tech, Ep2 all tech, and Melee kit, which I use for both.
(These are GC)

Ep1 tech:
B: Rafoie
A: Zalure
X: Jellen
R/B: Resta
R/A: Rabarta
R/X: Razonde/Grants

Ep2 tech (CCA and Seabed):
B: Megid
A: Zalure
X: Jellen
R/B: Resta
R/A: Rabarta
R/X: Rafoie

Melee Kit (especially for VR areas):
B: Standard
A: Strong
X: Rabarta
R/B: Resta
R/A: Zalure
R/X: Jellen

It stays relatively the same as I always have Resta, Jellen and Zalure ready to go. For revival, I carry moons for use in intense combat but prefer reverser if possible. S/D is done from the R+Y menu.

[Kurosawa]

Lutz, FOmar:
Melee setup:
A-Weak attack
B-Strong attack
X-Resta
R+A-Gifoie
R+B-Gizonde, Anti in Mines, Spaceship and CCA
R+X-Gibarta

Magic setup:
A-Grants
B-Megid, Foie in Episode I
X-Resta
R+A-Gifoie
R+B-Gizonde
R+X-Gibarta

I Jellen and Zalure off the quick menu. I'm used to doing it that way.

Hitomi, RAcaseal:
A-Weak attack
B-Strong attack
X-Trimate
R+A-Special attack
R+B-Moons, Stars or Sols
R+X-Freeze traps or Dimate

[Sabin_Linhigh]

HUnewearl

B-Weak Attack
A-Strong Attack
X-Special attack or Magic (Razonda)
RB-Resta
RA-Jellen/Zalure
RX-Zalure/Jellen

I also set Shifta/Deband at the top of the quick menu.

[squeak]

I use a hucast and i dont set any attack buttons on the R-trigger because i hold it down when i run thru the trap rooms.

if you time it right you can make it chime and then sidestep during battles.

"hard attack" "weak attack" "special attack"
"dimate" "confuse trap" "freeze trap"

i also make sure that the second wep in the quick menu is always a handgun so i can shoot the trap to set it off faster.



<font size=-1>[ This Message was edited by: squeak on 2004-01-28 00:02 ]</font>

[silvermax]

a= attack
b= strong
x= Resta (unless its a droid, then is a mate)
Ra= Rafoie/Gizondi (or Freze trap if droid)
Rb= jelen (fire trap if droid)
Rx= zalure (sol atomizer if droid)

and as for my quick tech menu i just move Anti to the top of the list, and keep everything else the same

That seemly sublte request for a a reply, just screamed out to my (RABblerouser), so here goes:

My set up-

HUnewearl/RAmarl:

A: hard hit
B: weak hit
X: special

R+A: rabarta
R+B: gizonde
R+X: resta

I use the quick tech menu for basically all the techs i dont have shortcutted (duh), anyways, i'm used to using the quick tech menu for SDJZ, and the anti gifoie and resta if i get a full PB bar...sort of covers all the bases i suppose.

HUcaseal/HUcast:

A: hard hit
B: weak hit
X: special

The R+ menu is sort of messed up, as i use traps sometimes, sometimes mates, and other items...i'm more comfortable using the quick tech/item menu, so it's sort of useless to shortcut traps.. i dunno

FOnewearl:

A: barta
B: foie
X: resta

R+A: rabarta
R+B: rafoie
R+X: gizonde

Yeah... i have a lot of characters ^-^... I think my setup seems bizarre to some people, but i really cant stand pressing the x button over and over, as most of my attacks seem to become hard attacks... so i sort of put my "combo" in a straight line- basically up the controller, b-a-a is just a regular soft hard hard combo, and then if i want to use a special, what usually works best is either soft-hard-special or soft-soft-special...it even doubles over for my RAmarl who is getting to a point where she can do hard-hard-hard or even hard-hard-special :]
