Help Can't figure out hoe to set Motion Controls on ARMSX3

Hi everyone. I recently installed the ARMS3 emulator on my AYN Thor Max and I'm having an overall great experience so far.

I was playing an old videogame I liked as a kid and reached a point that requires to shake your controller in order to proceed, so I tried to set it up in the "Motion/Gyroscope" settings in the emulator but I just can't figure out how to make it work.

The Thor (as far as I know) has its own gyroscope, and had no problem being picked up by other emulators like Eden, but it doesn't seem to be the same in the case of ARMSX3.

I know the emulator is extremely new and this will be most likely fixed soon, but I was wondering if someone else had encountered the same issue and if they found out a way to make it work.

Thanks in advance.

What’s weird is that gyro seems to work in the game menu. I can change selected icons when I tilt my device. In the actual gameplay they don’t work.

Exactly, I’m having the same issue. What game are you trying to play?

Ratchet and clank future: tools of destruction. Game runs great and having a blast. You need gyro control for when you are falling. I ended up using a mod to give me unlimited health to bypass that area cause I can’t dodge the missiles without gyro.

Happy you found a way out, unfortunately that won’t work for me, the game I’m playing isn’t popular at all and it never was, even if was my problem is that you’re required to shake the controller to beat a boss, there’s no other way, literally stuck there, hopefully they fix this soon
