Game data
The Binding of Isaac uses steam cloud.
GameSave Manager also supports The Binding of Isaac.
Save Game Folder Location
Settings Folder Location
Settings file is named serial.txt and is located in the Steam installation folder under \common\the binding of isaac\. Template:Game Location Table
Controller support
Controller support on Windows
The developers recommend somewhat light-heartedly that the players use, or google if they don't know it, a utility named [JoyToKey]. Please also check the controller category for more information.
It is recommended to bind left stick to move, right stick to fire direction, as in a standard dual-stick shooter. If your controller has four face buttons aligned in a plus shape, binding those to fire direction is another effective option, as the game does not allow you to fire diagonally anyway.
Controller support on Linux
Use the following xboxdrv config (requires xboxdrv to be installed):
[xboxdrv] ui-clear=true silent=true trigger-as-button=true detach-kernel-driver=true [ui-axismap] X1 = KEY_A:KEY_D Y1 = KEY_W:KEY_S X2 = KEY_LEFT:KEY_RIGHT Y2 = KEY_UP:KEY_DOWN DPAD_X=KEY_A:KEY_D:1 DPAD_Y=KEY_W:KEY_S:1 [ui-buttonmap] start = KEY_P guide = BTN_MODE back = KEY_R A = KEY_DOWN B = KEY_RIGHT X = KEY_LEFT Y = KEY_UP LB = KEY_E RB = KEY_Q LT = KEY_E RT = KEY_SPACE
Just run it as:
sudo xboxdrv -s --config ~/isaac.xboxdrv
Issues fixed
Steam achievements not unlocking
- On certain systems Steam achievements may fail to unlock and get registered.
A fan made fix has been developed to solve this issue on Windows.
Steam Achievements on Mac
For the achievements gained on a Mac to be unlocked in Steam, one has to copy and replace the so.sol files as outlined here. The file is located in:
~/Library/Preferences/Macromedia/Flash Player/#SharedObjects/''<Random String>''/localhost/
After extracting it, follow the instructions given in the aforementioned link. Finally launch the game and see the achievements unlock.
Alt+Tab Crashing
- Does not appear to be a fix for this yet. Also happens when pressing Windows key.
Solution: press F, it toggles fullscreen.
Steam Community does not work in full screen
- If you are playing the game in full screen, you will be unable to access Steam Community's Shift Tab overlay.
Toggle Fullscreen Key Doesn't Work In-Game
On the options menu, it states F is the key you use to toggle fullscreen/windowed mode. However, this only works on the title menu or in the pause menu. In-game, pressing F does absolutely nothing unless the game is paused. Currently, there is no fix for this.
