About this mod

Swaps the graphics for the 'X' and 'A' buttons with the 'Y' and 'B' buttons, and replaces the graphics for the Xbox 360 controller with new graphics for the Nintendo Switch Pro Controller.
Install using SnakeBite, and set the button bindings in Steam to emulate the Xbox layout.

I made this mod because I wanted to use my Switch Pro Controller to play MGSV with gyro aiming. I realized that there will always be one of two problems present -- either the face buttons in-game match the face buttons on the controller but the layout of the buttons are mirrored, or the layout will be normal but the face buttons don't match. In both cases there are still a few small differences, such as the shoulder and trigger buttons using the Xbox names, and the d-pad having the Xbox design.

This mod swaps place of the 'X' and 'A' buttons with the 'Y' and 'B' buttons so that the layout is normal and the button prompts match the controller. The graphics for the button prompts are replaced with new ones based on Xelu's FREE Controller Prompts and the controller graphics are replaced with one based on this.

If you only want to have the switch layout and/or don't like the new button prompts you can download "xbox_switch_layout" instead. If you do want the new stuff go ahead with "switch_layout."

The mod has only been tested on version 1.0.15.3, but would probably work on other versions as well.
To install the mod download the file, unzip it, and install through SnakeBite.

IMPORTANT: You need to set up your Pro Controller in Steam to emulate the Xbox layout (i.e. 'X' on the controller corresponds to 'Y' in Steam).
