NightWalker Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 (edited) In the fist place, I would like to say "Thank you, Aaron". This emulator is one of the coolest thing I have ever seen about videogames. I like playing the games in the original form, so I haven't played Grim Fandango in years, because I didn't want to play the remaster. Now it's amazing (a miracle!) to see the game working again in my new PC after all these years. I don't know if this is the place for it, but I wanted to tell you that the game seems to work fine, except the Shift key (which is used to run) doesn't work properly with the numeric pad. It works fine with the cursor keys and the game works perfectly with a gamepad, though. But I always played Grim Fandango with numeric pad, because I find it confortable, since I have all the functions of the game there ("5" is look and "+" is take, for example). I write this in case you want to fix that. If you press the shift key before the 8 number, Manny doesn't run. Or if you are running and try to turn with the numeric pad, Manny walks. I have tried this with my laptop keyboard and even with an external USB keyboard. Again, thank you very much for your excellent work! This is an authentic DREAM (hehe) for old LucasArts fans!

I'll put it on the list of things to fix for the next round. Cheers, Aaron 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's so many improvements in the Remaster that place it leagues ahead of the original.

Yes! The numberpad is definitely the way to play GF... I admit that this was a bizarre oversight from the Remaster team to not include it. (I did flag it in the DF forums of course...)
