I have a problem from the get-go. i know i can play this game on the keyboard but my fingers quickly cramp on that style, so i try to remap the controller to my xbox one (for windows) controller and right after I map it, and it makes the continue chime, the game just no longer functions on controller or keyboard... I hope I am just missing something. can you help please?
I'm not sure why remapping the xbox one controller (I don't own one to try) caused the procedure and all controls to block, but you can reset the mappings by accessing the Data\Profiles folder by removing the file called "last".
This way the game will reload the input screen when you start and you should be able to retry.
I ran some checks and found out a bug: If you immediately remap your controls during the first ever controls set up the controls menu freezes (it's a problem that doesn't happen if you come back to the mapping menu a second time from the title screen because a "last" profile file was already created) so this bug might be the reason of your problem.
yes, but when i delete "Last", I am back at where I started and it doesn't give me the option to map my controller until I map the keyboard, again, brings me back to square one. I just tried several times and nothing changed. maybe you should have a remapping options in the extras for the sake of pacing. this way you could have it automatically save the remapping even if the game freezes. you could just close the game and open it back up using the controller
