Thought this would be an interesting topic, since I brought it up in smp1 before the reboot. How do you all play Minecraft? Keyboard? Mouse? Joystick? Gamepad? For me, I use a keyboard/mouse if I'm not doing anything rigorous, and a gamepad when exploring/mob fighting/PvP-ing. I leave my keyboard/mouse settings default, as my controller is fully keyboard/mouse mappable. And since everyone already knows what the default controls for Minecraft are, I'll just post my gamepad controls. I'm using a Nyko Airflo EX controller. It has the exact same (and location) of buttons as a PS3 controller, so I'll be using a PS3 controller as reference to show what does what: Left Thumbstick - Movement (WASD keys) Right Thumbstick - Rotation (Moves mouse up/down/left/right) D-pad - Hotbar items 1 thru 4 (Up = 1, Left = 2, Right = 3, Down = 4; can be anything) △ - Hotbar item 6 (Sword/hand weapon slot) □ - Mine block (left-click) ○ - Set block (right-click) ✕ - Jump (SPACE BAR) L1 - Hotbar item 5 (Bow/projectile slot) L2 - drops currently held item (Q key) L3 (left thumbstick button) - Sprint (CTRL) R1 - Sneak walk (SHIFT) R2 - Debug button (F3, for finding light levels/coordinates/etc) R3 (right thumbstick button) - Pick Block (middle-click) SELECT - Hotbar item 9 (food/rations) START - inventory (E key) HOME (between Start/Select) - Opens in-game menu (ESC key) (spoiler button to avoid spamming with entire list) So there: now everyone officially knows my setup! What about you guys?
Keyboard/Mouse. I hate using a controller unless I'm playing Burnout or Mortal Kombat. Sword and gun combat is a lot nicer with a keyboard and mouse
I just use keyboard and mouse. The only things I changed are "R" for change perspective and "CAPS LOCK" for sprint.
