Armored Core: Silent Line Portable - True Analogs Mod
アーマード・コア サイレントライン ポータブル
Gives the PSP Armored Core: Silent Line Portable real dual-analog controls for emulator and Vita players: one stick to move and strafe, the other to turn and aim.
What it does
The PSP has only one analog nub, so this game was built around buttons for turning and looking. VanLaser retrofitted proper analog handling, using the input logic of Armored Core: Nine Breaker:
- the left stick moves forward and back and strafes
- the right stick turns and looks up and down
- the sticks keep working this way even if you remap the digital buttons in-game
- an extra purge modifier on the PSP's music note key, so dumping a weapon takes a single extra button
It is single-player only, and replays do not work with it.
Playing it
This is meant for PPSSPP (1.13.2 or newer) and similar setups with a second stick; a real PSP cannot use it. The patch applies to the decrypted game executable of your own copy of the US release, which you then put back into your disc image; a cheat-file version also exists but the author advises against it. In PPSSPP you also need to map the in-game right analog to your controller. Full steps are on the mod's Romhack Plaza page.
