About this mod

Three new types of on-screen buttons for the main buttons. They're based on the Xbox 360 and Xbox One controllers, plus the in-game original buttons but now each one recolored with the classic colors for each button.

AZRAEL'S XBOX BUTTONS



DESCRIPTION

I like the game and I play it with a controller, but when I see the main buttons on-screen (A, B, X, Y) I really find them... kind of boring. They're black & white, and mixed with the white texts sometimes they are not easy to read or see. They need a better contrast against the texts.

I needed a mod that would change the main buttons for the better, but also, didn't want it to modify the shoulder & trigger buttons because I liked those how they were in the game. So, I tried a mod, but it wasn't what I needed. So instead, I made my own! And here are the results, in three different flavors:

  • Xbox 360: This mod will change those main buttons using the buttons from the Xbox 360 controller.
  • Xbox One: This mod will change those main buttons using the buttons from the Xbox One controller.
  • Original Recolored: This mod keeps the original design, but each button will have the classic color used in the Xbox controllers so far.

See the screenshots for reference. I've also included as an optional download, the source files used to create the textures, for those interested.


HOW TO INSTALL?

Each mod is meant to be merged with game_main.arc, that way they won't mess with your already installed mods and you won't have to download a big file just for a small one.

First, make a backup of your game_main.arc. Pick one mod from the list above, extract it, and use your favorite method for merging. Either use ARCtool or the old Arc Extractor-Repacker & Image Viewer. Personally, I prefer the latest version of ARCtool, and it's easy to use with the batch file for Dragon's Dogma.

Merge \id\common\cubutton_360_ID.tex into game_main.arc.

Need more help? There're plenty of guides explaining the merging process on the Internet. Google is your friend. Also, the sites hosting those tools explain how to use them. Just follow the links.
