This game still doesn't fail to impress me after playing Tremulous to death - the constant updates and support are great!
I'm curious, however: after a long and arduous process of getting my Dualshock 3 controller to work flawlessly with Ubuntu 14.04 and, in turn, with steam, I'm wondering if Unvanquished has any built-in joystick support or if anyone has had any luck getting their gamepads to work with this game? Would be amazing as there certainly are enough buttons to match the bindings!

Re: PS3 / XBOX controller support
We dropped controller support for the meantime because we are in the process of rewriting the engine in C++. If this is a strongly desired community feature, then we will do it again in beta, in a much cleaner way than with the code we inherited.
Re: PS3 / XBOX controller support
Oh I see, that's quite understandable seeing as the game's in alpha! Controller support is notoriously buggy from what I've heard and experienced (even in fully released games). Cheers for replying; it's great to see an awesome game being actively developed!
Re: PS3 / XBOX controller support
I think we still have the native SDL2 joystick/gamepad support. Try it and see what happens.

It'll be a project setting up the mappings and events handling and whatnot but I'll give it a shot! Thanks
