Hi All,
I could use recommendations for good keyboard/controller for 2P TAS'ing
I started making a 2P this weekend - and quickly ran into frustrations using a run-of-the-mill keyboard
Problem 1: (I think) I'm running into X-Key-Rollover Limits while hitting combinations of directional and button input (meaning I can only hit up to 4 keys at once). I debugged this with help from Feos over weekend, but after I started getting my 2P TAS - I realized I still get the problem as soon as I introduce a directional key in the combination
Problem 2: Awkward key layout for 2 players on a standard keyboard. Trying to two-player two TAS on a standard keyboard (with offset key layout) has been uber frustrating.
Does anyone have recommendations for a keyboard/controller that's good for stuff like this?
Ideally - I would love to have a keyboard/controller with at least 8KRO, and a uniform grid layout:
0 0 0 | 0 0 0
0 0 0 | 0 0 0
0 0 0 | 0 0 0
B B B | B B B
B B B | B B B
Where "0"s are mapped to directional keys for 1P and 2P, and "B"s can be mapped to buttons (Button 1, 2, 3 frame advance, pause, etc)
If anyone can point me to where I could find something like this, I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks.
Update: I found the the kind of keyboard layout I'm looking for -
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B076LRJ528/ref=ask_ql_qh_dp_hza I'm asking retailer about the specs for Key Rollover. If you have recommendations for keyboards that look like this - I would love to hear them!
