I am using an xbox one controller to attempt and play this game but I am unable to invert the Y axis. There is an option in this new enhanced version to invert X or Y in the menu, but when I do, it doesn't change anything on the controller. This makes the game completely unplayable because, unfortunately, my brain only works with an inverted Y axis.
I have searched the internet and forums on how to change this, but it looks like I don't have the right options in the "BaseInput.ini" because this new version doesn't match the steam version, which is where I found some suggestions.
I can't even get into the console by using the tilde key so I can invert Y in there. I have launched the game using -console and even edited the file to make sure it says "Tilde" for consolekeys, but I still cannot get it to work.
I have also tried Joy2Key to map the mouse to the controller, but when I do that the sensitivity gets messed up and it goes all over the place.

I don't understand why this has to be so difficult to invert the Y axis on a controller, especially with all these new "enhanced" versions.

Can someone please help me? I have effectively wasted my money by purchasing a game in which the devs do not seem to care about these issues.

The following solution is for the original version of the game. I haven't installed the enhanced version. Try it out and tell me if it works.

Invert Xbox 360 controller:

Open file in notepad: Mind_Path_to_Thalamus\Engine\Config\BaseInput.ini
Change:
LookUpScale=-250
to:
LookUpScale=250

Save file. Start game. Play.

Invert Mouse (for original version of game)

Open file in notepad: Mind_Path_to_Thalamus\Engine\Config\BaseInput.ini

Find this line:
;ConsoleKey=Tilde

change to:
ConsoleKey=Tilde

Save file. Start game. In game press ~. Type: InvertMouse 1
Press enter

or

edit BaseInput.ini

change:
Bindings=(Name="MouseY",Command="Count bYAxis | Axis aMouseY")
to:
Bindings=(Name="MouseY",Command="Count bYAxis | Axis aMouseY Speed=-1.0")



(I just realized you said you're using an Xbox One controller. I'm not sure if that will work or not since I have an xbox 360 controller. Let me know.)

hudfreegamer,

Thank you so much for your suggestion. Unfortunately those options don't exist in the enhanced version. I just don't see the "LookUpScale" item in the BaseInput.ini config. Additionally, the line "ConsoleKey" is actually "ConsoleKeys" in the new version and even when I change it, I cannot get into the console with the tilde key.

I'll keep looking around, but it seems like I might be out of luck with this new version.

For the Enhanced Edition try this: open the DefaultInput.ini located in Mind_Pathtothalamus\Config and find this line

+AxisConfig=(AxisKeyName="Gamepad_RightY",AxisProperties=(DeadZone=0.250000,Sensitivity=1.000000,Exponent=1 .000000,bInvert=False))

Notice the (+) symbol. Change bInvert=False to bInvert=True. Hope this works.

Thanks Psyonicon.
I am not home right now but will check this evening and report back here with the results. Hopefully this will work.

Psyonicon.... You are the BEST!
It works perfectly.

Thank you so much!

I'm glad I could help :)
