Ran into an interesting bug regarding the controls and camera. I'm using a Cooler Master MK850 keyboard, which has functionality for analog keys, and it's supposed to emulate an Xbox One controller. However, when I start the mod, the camera starts moving left and up, and Spyro is continuously moving forward, regardless of whether I had the gamepad mode on or off.

I figured out a workaround by unplugging the keyboard before starting the game, but sadly it means it doesn't receive gamepad inputs when I plug it back in, but the gamepad stuff actually be the root of the issue anyway. It's not a huge problem, the game is perfectly playable without analog input, but it's a shame regardless. Maybe I should try with a Steam Controller instead.

But in general, this is freaking great mod. It's amazing how much it feels like a wizard merged a set of Spyro and Half-Life discs together, and I love the use of gems as a health restoration resource, and the extra features you've been working on, including new models for Spyro and Sparx, is neat - I don't have nearly as much nostalgia for the PS1 games as some other people, I vastly prefer the Reignited models and art style, so it's nice to know we could at least have the option to use higher-res models in future updates.
