So I'm replaying OoT without the help a USB controller, and I've found that it is impossible for me to actually land a fish (necessary, if I remember correctly, if you want to get the golden scale and heart piece). The instructions prompt with directions on how to "hook a fish"--analog down + A; or on the keyboard, Shift + down arrow key, presumably. The problem arises when I actually try this, though--because it never works. At first I thought the up and down arrow keys were reversed for items (like they are when using C-button items like Hook/Longshot and arrows, or the first-person camera), but up arrow + shift didn't work either. Anyone know why?

It could be that I just suck, of course.

Anyhow. Feel free to baleet this if it's in the wrong section.

This is in the right forum.

You can double click on the screen to check the controls. That way you can check which arrow key you need to use and whether you want to adjust them. Personally, I like customizing the controls to match what I'm used to and/or what makes sense.

Regarding the USB controller, you're probably better off getting one. See this thread for why:

Actually, I'd already completed the Water Temple when I made this thread. To circumvent the difficult of quickly Longshotting, all one had to do is get as close as possible with the pad then go to Options>Smooth X & Y. After longshotting, the X & Y channels can be reset.

Still haven't figured out how to complete the fishing game, though. And the Lens of Truth doesn't work in the treasure chest mini-game, but that's really ancillary.

What i did for fishing is I walked into the water a few steps, for example knee high, found the fish I wanted to catch, and lured close to me. It will take patients, but eventually the fish should grab the hook and if it was close enough to you, will be caught automatically.



As for the Lens of Truth, it does work in the treasure chest game, you just have to walk up to the chest and look at it using C-UP.

This is a 6 month bump. It was literally one day away from being closed automatically. The thread maker has been inactive for over two months. This should be closed.

If anyone has any questions, just send me a PM.
