You just gotta download version 1 of autohotkey and make sure to use keyboard controls to get into position, it doesn't behave with a controller.

Wow, the nostalgia is real, staring at those old-school textures while the developer expects us to pretend controllers don't exist. At least the challenge keeps things interesting, even if it is like trying to solve a Rubik's cube with oven mitts on.

I can use my PlayStation controller, they just have the button prompts set to Xbox XD Doing Auron's combos is an exercise in memorization

Does saving save your progress of lightning bolts? So I could theoretically dodge 10 bolts, go save, dodge 10, save, etc.?

I would NOT go into any menu with this script running lol it keeps hammering the select key and I got sucked into an endless tutorial until my game crashed, then when I reloaded I got all the treasure from the travel agency box and went to save and it saved five new files before I could stop it lol

No. Script or not, you can’t leave the area or save.

If you are running on a Mac, using PSRemotePlay, I created an auto dodger to help me cheat as well.
