How in the fucking fuck do I press the Xbox guide button in Xenia?

submitted by iThinkiShitYourself to gaming 1 dayJun 5, 2025 16:10:06 ago (+2/-0)     (gaming)

2 fucking hours of searching online and chat GPT and i cannot find an answer. How in the fuck is this possible? This should have worked without me doing anything at all.

Specifically I'm trying to play gears of war 2 splitscreen. Has anyone done this before?

yes xenia has issues, but i binded my keys well though the emulator is just trash when you try to run blue dragon or lost odyssey

are you able to pull up the xbox guide menu?

It's an experimental emulator. I don't think xbox 360 emulation is worth the trouble. You probably have to set the keybinding in the settings.

there is a keybinding in the config file called guide_button but no matter what i set it to, it sets it to "true" or "false" and no button i press does shit. i don't see an assignment to the guide button either. and that is the only instance of the word "guide" in the con fucking fig file

Yeah, buttons are either true or false in this sense... have you tried assigning the key within the emulator?

the issue has to do with the devs misusing the concept of a canary version of software....................... they have a huge fucking set of features needed to do basic shit locked away in the canary version.

no it does not appear that these are simply unstable features that aren't ready for release, and even then they should get some of this shit out there for testing in the master branch so they can get testers and eyeballs on it. AI has made the dev much less remue when confronted with how poorly they've used github. the sheer volume of unique mistakes and misconception programmers have is astounding and NO ONE ever owns up to shit. each and every time i have smelled bullshit on a github page now, i used AI to comb through it for the info i wanted, and it wasn't fucking there, and on top of that it helped build my confidence that there are larger more fundamental flaws with the repos themselves.

You've lost me, weren't we talking about keybindings?

Yeah we were. And the solution is such nonsense it's understandable why you didn't understand what I said.

Key bindings play no role whatsoever. The entire profile function is in the canary version and no version has a key binding that opens the Xbox guide menu... This information is nowhere on the internet whatsoever and I had to ask one of the developers. Now it's on the internet

GitHub has always been full of shitty, half baked software from halfbaked programmers who barely know what they're doing and fuck up all kinds of conventions and do esoteric shit that no one else has a reason to know
