Not sure if this is related but I’ve been using project 64 lately and the control stick seems way more difficult to use than the original hardware. Anyone know why this is? It makes it really tough to aim.
Input lag?
Yeah that’s part of it but also it’s just really tough to do fine adjustments and it seems to jump all over the place. That’s the bigger issue though the lag is a compounding factor.
Try shrinking the stick's deadzone maybe?
Tried that. The issue is that the it’s still too sensitive at the point the motion kicks in. Surprised p64 doesn’t have a sensitivity setting. Maybe another emulator would?
I thought P64 has a sensitivity curve editor? Hmm. One of the emulators has gotta have it
Last time I used project 64, I used a retrobrawler (the really plugs into a N64 one) and a raphnet adapter. It was great, and the stick control did feel better than an xb360 controller.
