Will there be FULL gamepad support for SM?

I can only configure my gamepad for shooting and jumping, not moving or looking around.
Will this be added in the future?
Really sorry but had to:
Playing a shooter on PC with a Gamepad?????? really?

The entire "shooter on console" is a laugh, why emulate crappiness on a pc?
just learn to use mouse + wasd like grownups do


to answer your question there's a need for some more info: analogue or digital, type of gamepad, type of os. Most gamepads will probably work out of the box already as the standard controls are set to arrowkeys.

You can use a software called Xpadder in the meantime. Managed to play easily with a 360 controller.

action maker means making action for the player or items. It is less for global scale effect, that would be more link to mediatracker, or scripted fx. We still have work for all this to do, but the video is cool to see even if I don't understand it ^_^ so far, some players made rain with bink I believe, with alpha, but not sure.

hmm, will it be possible to trigger an action created with the tool through MT?
In other words, create MT cutscenes(mini movies) by triggering a premade movement with the action maker tool

yeah looks like it.. although it might as well be done through MT, just stretch and angle ".............................." to create blurry stripes, lower opacity to about 10,toy around with movement and copy it to a few more. Add different movement patterns for all the rain MT, then loop all in foreground.. Due to the low opacity the overlapping stripes will become brighter and create a 'rain' effect.
