About this mod

A third hotkey for controllers, because two Favorites menu buttons is silly. Now includes an unbound alternative for MCM-enabled mod functionality!

Permissions and credits
CONTROLLER HOTKEY BIND 3: BY HOAX (mindinavoid on Skyrim Nexus)
1. What?
-An edited controlmap.txt file that implements a third bind slot for 360 controller users on PC.
-I've also placed a "references" folder in the directory with the file reference data for keyboard
-and 360 controllers for those who like to live dangerously and edit their own control binds outside
-of what the game allows inside itself.
-Incidentally, you could use this to build your own completely custom control scheme if you wanted.
-This does however mean that the D-pad doesn't move the cursor in the Favorites menu,
-so you'll have to use the control stick for that. Otherwise you couldn't bind the key,
-and leaving something like that out of the thought would just be silly, wouldn't it?
1.5 What else?
- I've now uploaded an alternate file with the three hotkeys unbound, for users of MCM-enabled mods that want to be able to bind one of those buttons to a mod function (where available). For instance, those who wish to bind one of SkyUI's Group options to one of the keys now can!
2. Why?
-Because having two Favorites menu selectors is just plain silly, and I have a better use for that
-third direction. Also, because I can't be the only one who just wanted a third hotkey.
-It also allows a third hotkey to be bound for MCM-enabled functions, simply by replacing
-the appropriate reference in the controlmap.txt file with "0xff", a null pointer.
-And, if someone else has a better use for those keys, well, they should be able to use them.
3. How?
-BSAOpt and a little code sense. Notepad++ makes it easier to read this stuff though.
4. Where?
-Wherever you want it to be. If someone wants to get this up onto the Workshop, show me how and
-you'll earn a coveted spot in the readme. And my thanks. Or, do it yourself, I don't care.
-(Credit for the "hard" work would be nice, though.)
5. Who?
-Me, for taking the five minutes to do this.
-You, for taking the five minutes to read this.
-Nexus, for being a place to put things.
-The internet, for satisfying my itch to solve this little quandary.
