Quick answer: Record the active Rift profile and its current values, restore that profile to the documented Rift V1.1 baseline, save, reopen the menu to confirm the values persisted, and then add back only one change at a time. Rift stores three build profiles, so make sure you are resetting the profile you actually intend to test.
This guide covers Rift V1.1, EmberZens' NBA 2K27 Cronus Zen script. A clean baseline removes guesswork when a setup has been tuned repeatedly, copied from several recommendations, or changed after a game update.
Rift V1.1’s documented baseline
The reviewed Rift V1.1 build starts with:
| Setting | V1.1 baseline |
|---|---|
| Auto Green | Button |
| Auto Green timing | 590 ms |
| Button Rhythm | Off |
| Rhythm Speed | Normal |
| Gameplay assists | Off |
| Zen LED color | Purple |
The gameplay-assist settings visible in Rift V1.1 include Turbo Shots, Instant Quickstop, Dribble Mode, Release Vibrator, Infinite Stamina, Dunk Assist, Defense Assist, and Instant Triggers.
This baseline is a clean starting state—not a promise that one configuration produces the same result for every player, build, connection, or game patch.
The 3-step reset workflow
Step 1: Save the state you have now
Do not start by changing values. First, open the Rift menu with L2 + Options on PlayStation-labeled controls or LT + Menu on Xbox-labeled controls.
Use left and right to review the 16 menu pages. Record or photograph:
- the active saved build profile;
- Auto Green mode and Auto Green MS;
- Button Rhythm and Rhythm Speed;
- Square/X mapping when Button Rhythm is used;
- Turbo Shots and Instant Quickstop;
- Auto or Custom Dribble Mode;
- Release Vibrator and its timing;
- Infinite Stamina, Dunk Assist, Defense Assist, and Instant Triggers;
- custom D-pad dribble mappings, when used;
- the selected Zen color.
A short phone video of the menu can be faster than writing every value. Keep order information and personal details out of the recording.
Preserving the old state matters for two reasons: you may want to recover a working value later, and a before-and-after record makes support diagnostics much clearer.
Step 2: Restore one profile to the baseline
Rift V1.1 stores three separate build profiles. Confirm the profile you want to reset before editing it. Changing one profile does not mean the other two have been cleared.
Use up or down to restore the active profile to:
- Button Auto Green;
- 590 ms Auto Green timing;
- Button Rhythm off;
- Rhythm Speed Normal;
- gameplay assists off;
- purple LED.
Press Circle/B to exit and save. Reopen the menu, return to the same profile, and confirm that the baseline is still present.
Reset one profile first. Leave any profile that contains a useful comparison or known working configuration untouched until you have finished diagnosing the issue.
Step 3: Test clean, then add one change
Run one controlled baseline test before adjusting anything else. Keep the same player build, animation, in-game settings, controller, display, and connection path during the comparison.
Rift V1.1’s Auto Green behavior is coded for a standstill condition, so use a repeatable standstill scenario when checking that setting. Do not use one moving attempt as evidence that the baseline failed.
If the original issue still appears with the clean profile, stop adding settings. The cause may be the active game patch, input recognition, a connection, an in-game option, or another setup layer.
If the baseline behaves as expected, reintroduce one intentional change:
- Write down the current value.
- Change one setting only.
- Save and repeat the same test.
- Record the result before making another change.
The first change that recreates a problem is far more useful than a setup with five unknown variables.
A practical way to use the three profiles
Rift does not force a purpose onto each profile, but a simple private system can make troubleshooting easier:
- Keep one profile at the documented V1.1 baseline.
- Use one profile for the configuration you are actively testing.
- Preserve one known working or comparison configuration.
Label the purpose of each profile in your own notes. The goal is to avoid overwriting the only state that lets you compare before and after.
Reset checklist
- ☐ I confirmed that this guide matches my Rift version.
- ☐ I identified the profile I intend to reset.
- ☐ I recorded the current values before changing them.
- ☐ Auto Green is set to Button at 590 ms.
- ☐ Button Rhythm is off.
- ☐ Rhythm Speed is Normal.
- ☐ Gameplay assists are off.
- ☐ The Zen LED is purple.
- ☐ I exited with Circle/B to save.
- ☐ I reopened the same profile and confirmed the values persisted.
- ☐ I kept the in-game settings and physical setup unchanged during the baseline test.
- ☐ I am reintroducing only one change at a time.
When resetting is not the next move
Do not erase a useful profile simply because NBA 2K27 received an update. Check EmberZens’ current Rift update notice or status first. A reset can restore your known values, but it cannot prove compatibility with a newly released game patch.
If normal controller input or the Rift menu is not responding, work through the input and device checks before retuning. If EmberZens support asks you to preserve a problem state, keep that profile intact until the diagnostic review is complete.
If a value does not save
Capture the exact sequence:
- active profile;
- value before the change;
- value after the change;
- Circle/B save action;
- value shown after reopening the menu.
That evidence is more actionable than “my settings keep resetting.” It helps separate a profile mix-up from a save or setup issue.

- Ready to tune from the clean profile? Follow the Rift timing calibration process.
- If normal inputs or the menu are not responding, use the Rift input and device checks.
- If the clean baseline still reproduces the issue, prepare the Rift support diagnostics.
