GZDOOM Player is going TURBO!

Hai

So I just started using GZDOOM only to be able to play GZDOOM 64 (I primarily use Zandronum). I start the game through Doomseeker and it loads well, but as soon as it starts, Doomguy just starts running backwards and jumping all the time. There's also a message that reads "Player is going TURBO!" or something like this. I already screwed around in the Options menu but I can't get it to stop. Obviously, this makes the game unplayable. Please help!

Do you have a joystick or gamepad attached? This sounds like the game is receiving input from somewhere it shouldn't.

To be able to help we need to know the version of GZDoom you are using and the list of all WADs/PK3s you are loading (with exact versions and/or where to download them). Also you can try to run GZDoom directly without Doomseeker.

I figured it out, kinda feel like an idiot. I was trying to run GZDOOM from the Doomseeker "Create Game" menu since I can easily add pwads through it, but Doomseeker doesn't have the option to run GZDOOM so I was running it as Zandronum. That's what made GZDOOM go all crazy on me. I ran GZDOOM as a normal app and it ran DOOM 2 fine. Then I dragged all of GZDOOM 64's files into GZDOOM and it ran them perfectly, no problem. Finally I can play DOOM 64 proper!

IMO playing Doom 64 proper requires this: https://doom64ex.wordpress.com/ ;)
