backdown for keyboard works

yay no gamepad needed since u can do all the freestyle moves + backdown

how'd u do it?

ok im doing a tutorial for you guys....english is not my native language but it will be easy to understand and will take you only 3 mins to set it up

why not just get a controller for $15?

OK here is how to do it:

first download and install PPjoy http://www.simtel.net/product.download. ... p?id=75176

then start the program (start - program -> Parallel Port Joystick -> Configure Joysticks)

Press button "Add" and chose Parallel Port: Virtual Joystick, Controller number: Controller 1
(windows will install a virtual joystick in hardware devices just follow the instructions)

Now press button "Mapping" and chose "Set a custom mapping for this controller"

continue and chose everything like written below:

4 Axes, 12 Buttons, 1 POV hats
Axis 1: X Axis,
Axis 2: Y Axis,
Axis 3: Z Axis,
Axis 4: Z Rotation

X Axis: Analog 0,
Y Axis: Analog 1,
Z Axis: Analog 2,
Z Rotation: Analog 3

Button 1: Digital 0 ... Button 12: Digital 11

Direction button POV:
North - Digital 12,
East - Digital 15,
West - Digital 14,
South - Digital 13

Done.

next steps are needed to set it up for live 06:

Now chose PPJoyKey (Start - Program - Parallel Port Joystick - PPJoyKey)

Joystick device: Virtual joystick 1.

Up = Up (Keyboard: up)
Down = Down (Keyboard: down)
Left = Left (Keyboard: left)
Right = Right (Keyboard: right)
Z Axis - = Freestyle move (Keyboard: X)
Z Axis + = Freestyle move (Keyboard: C)
Z Rotation - = Freestyle Crossover/Spinmove (Keyboard: F)
Z Rotation + = Backdown (Keyboard: Y)
Button 1 = seems to be useless
Button 2 = Rebound (Keyboard: E)
Button 3 = Turbo (Keyboard: Spacebar)
Button 4 = Timeout/intentional foul (Keyboard: Q)
Button 5 = Dunk (Keyboard: W)
Button 6 = Pass (Keyboard: S)
Button 7 = Shot (Keyboard: D)
Button 8 = Direct pass (Keyboard: Left Ctrl)
Button 9 = Alley Oop (Keyboard: A)
Button 10 = Superstartrigger (Keyboard: Left Shift)
Button 11 = Off the ball (Keyboard: R)
Button 12 = Pause (Keyboard: ESC)
Button 13 = Quick Plays (Keyboard: 1)
Button 14 = Quick Plays (Keyboard: 2)
Button 15 = Quick Plays (Keyboard: 3)
Button 16 = Quick Plays (Keyboard: 4)

Keyboard: X, C, up, down etc are adjustable, just chose whatever you want (these are my configurations to give you an idea of how it works,so backdown would be key "Y" on my keyboard settings)


Now save the .ini file.

Open your editor/notepad and copy/paste these lines

bind pov0_s PLAYCALL4
bind pov0_n PLAYCALL3
bind pov0_e PLAYCALL2
bind pov0_w PLAYCALL1
bind button1 BACKDOWN
bind button2 TURBO
bind button3 CALLPLAY
bind button4 CROSSOVER
bind button5 PASS
bind button6 SHOOT
bind button7 DIRECTSHOOT
bind button8 FAKE
bind button9 DIRECTPASS
bind button10 DEBUG2
bind button11 PAUSE
bind button12 DEBUG1
bind axis3 RYAXISCHANGE
bind axis2 RXAXISCHANGE
bind axis1 YAXISCHANGE
bind axis0 XAXISCHANGE
ioconfig_mgr_analog 0
ioconfig_mgr_haspov 1
ioconfig_mgr_default 0
ioconfig_mgr_displayname "PPJoy"

save as ppjoy.jfg to your folder ...\NBA Live 06\configs

Start your game and use in configurations Gamepad as controller (chose PPJoy)

Note: dont close ppjoy prog while playing live06 (you can minimize it)

DONE!!!

too complicated :S

No one cares that much to backdown. Most real people will buy a controller.

This is pretty cool. Great job man This thread should be stickied. Even though I already have a PS2 to USB adapter that lets me use my PS2 controller, I still prefer keyboard, and this really helps. Thanks.

Ok when I click on PPJoyKey it says "No PPJoey Virtual Joysticks Connected" Could this be because I had to pick a random interface type? my only option to get to the next step was to pick a random interface.. When i clicked Custom it only allowed me to pick 4 buttons

Definately deserves a sticky, for those who don't want to purchase a gamepad just for this game.

Thanks for the effort man

hehe thx guys...might look complicated but but it really isnt.

PapeSow, i think you did something wrong in the very first steps if you get error "No PPJoey Virtual Joysticks Connected"

start the program (start - program -> Parallel Port Joystick -> Configure Joysticks)

Press button "Add" and chose Parallel Port: Virtual Joystick, Controller number: Controller 1...then press add again and windows hardware assistant should pop up (follow instructions/ chose automatic software installation) then go to your hardware devices and check if "Parallel Port Joystick 1" is listed....if so, you shouldnt get an error anymore....continue with pressing on the button "mapping" etc.

excellent, excellent... nice work

why not just get a controller for $15?

I agree Just buy it...

Thank you so much man, this makes the game soo much easier and more appealing. I can actually defend and run an offence now.

I tried it out and this a pretty sweet find. If only you found sooner, I wouldn't have went to get a controller for one game. Cool for people who like the keyboard. Not complicated at all, ItalianBoZZ explained the whole process very well. No missed details.

thank you very much very helpful now i can also play 2 players

thanx mann great work. Never care the controller addicts. anyway thanx alot again

For some people, its not the money. They just don't want to buy a gamepad for one specific game. PC gamers are used to the mouse and keyboard. It defines what a PC game is all about.

Thanks for that I'll probably try it someday...

Holy motherfucker, this shit works. Somebody sticky this...it doesn't take muche time, like 5 mins max.
I can finally play with Bogut and Okafor

here are the missing superstar moves for keyboard

Controller/ Keyboard

right analog stick pushed right/ Z Axis+
right analog stick pushed left/ Z Axis-
right analog stick pushed up/ Z Rotation-
right analog stick pushed down/ Z Rotation+ (Backdown Button)


Outside Scorer:

Hold superstar trigger and press and hold Z Axis+ -> Jab and Hold
(so with my settings that would be holding left shift + C)

Hold superstar trigger and press/hold Z Rotation+ -> Cradle and Hold Back

Hold superstar trigger and press/hold Z axis- -> Create Space

Hold superstar trigger and press/hold Z Rotation- -> Hold between the legs


superstar trigger and Z Axis+(Jab and hold as written above) + Left -> Spin Left
superstar trigger and Z Axis- + right -> Spin right
superstar trigger and Z Rotation+ + Left -> Behind the Back
superstar trigger and Z Rotation- + Left/right -> Blow Out Dribble
superstar trigger and tap Z Rotation+ -> Fake Dribble Right, Spin Left

Note: you need to hold the ball in your hands in order to perform these moves so just pass the ball to your superstar

same goes for your inside scorer moves
have fun!

Wow. Great.
BIG THANKS ItalianBoZZ !!
