Set Skill Character direction doesn't work

    Hi,
    Since the Valkyrie Patch, the gamepad option "Set skill Character Direction" doesn't work (I use a xbox 360 controller since 2012 and never had the problem before). Kinda annoying since I'm playing melee.
    Am I the only one with this problem? If u had this problem and resolved it, can u post here your solution? :)


    Best regards,
    Don

    There used to be a line that you can edit to change this setting in one of the .ini files but I can't seem to find it in any of the *input.ini files. >.>


    Searching the internet, I found out there might be a "/controller" command that can do the same thing. Have you tried typing that in to see if the options have changed for you? (If this is even available, never used this command.)

    I tried the controller options and checked "character direction" but didn't work. I also tried to set GAMEPAD_USE_SKILL_DIRECTION to "true" in S1Option.ini but it didn't work :( . Maybe it's a bug from this patch.

    I'm having the same issue since valkyrie patch.
    The controller option "character direction" doesn't work. All skills will be applied in camera direction regardless.
    Seems like a bug since valkyrie patch. I've already reported it, too.
    But maybe someone knows a solution to this?

    Wait, what classes are you two playing?


    EDIT: Actually doesn't matter at some point. Have you tried turning off automatic gamepad detection (restarting the game if needed), try it, and then turn back on if it didn't help? o.o

    So if I enable controller I will be able to use escape skills as pre-patch? Sounds great will try that.

    When in an awkward situation, peeing everywhere asserts dominance and makes you alpha as fck.

    Not just escape skills. Any skill will be applied to where your character is directed, and not where your camera is facing.
    Without this option your character keeps turning in your camera's direction when using any skill on any class.
    And yea it's somehow bugged since valkyrie patch.

    The setting was so far only for controller players usable to equalize the extreme disadvantages with the camera and now it does not work anymore

    Hello - I wanted to add that since the last patch today at least the option to even set character direction for skills has completely disappeared from my UI :/ And all skills go in camera direction and not character direction. Haven't seen anything in the patch news about it. I also tried disabling/enabling gamepad detection and hotplugging while launched and everything - but the option to change to character direction doesn't appear anymore.
