[DESCRIPTION OF PAGE UPDATE AS THE IS CHANGED]

SLE Version Available here



{{{Description}}}


Do you love playing Skyrim but prefer to use your controller instead of a keyboard. Are you tired of not having any extra buttons freed up for hotkeys?? Well I have a solution for you.

This tweak is my personally created custom controller key mapping files that I have modified to my personally taste. The changes are only are made to the controllermap file and only affect the controller keys and should not affect the keyboard keys at all.

In the file section there are multiple versions available but only the two primary versions in the Main File section are updated and allow for full compatibility with Dual Wield Parry, Lock-On, TK Dodge, Quick Souls Menu or any combination of them. They are all optional but none are actually required for the mod!

[C.C.K.M]
 Key Changes

Allows for 4 free buttons. Changes to the controller buttons are in the following ways....
(ALL BUTTONS ARE EXPLAIN IN XBOX LAYOUT)

_______________
LB is UN-ASSIGNED and When Held it acts as Modifier Key. (If you are using TkDodge, I recommend setting this to the dodge hotkey.)

"RB" is Shouts and has no secondary function..
_______________
"LT" is left hand attack or regular block when using a One-Handed weapon.
_______________
"RT" is right hand attack and has no secondary function.

Right Stick retains its Camera Look function and when pressed activates the P.O.V. function like normal.
_______________
"B" is now UN-ASSIGNED and can be assigned to any preferred function or hotkey. (W/key) B will activate SNEAK. (I recommend that you assigned it the hotkey for Dual Wield Parrying Re-implementation in the MCM if you are using it).
_______________
"A" retains its normal ACTIVATE function and has no secondary function.

"Y" works as normal and activates JUMP. (I recommend you download Better Jumping if you play on PC.)

Any unmentioned buttons/keys retain their normal function and have not been modified....yet. [:D

Mod can be uninstalled or installed mid-play through without issues.


(Honestly, I don't remember whether the following features is still true. Please test and report to me.)

If you are using a keypad with your controller it IS compatible and you will be able to have access to all the Hotkeys [1-8], as well as other features available on the keyboard through the keypad.

I have also disabled all keyboard hotkeys, Tween Menu, Journal, Sleep, and Auto Move locks that are places on the keyboard that prevent you from using them while using a controller.



{{{Known Issues}}}

ALL Versions

- Freeze/CTD occurs if the mouse is accidentally moved while playing with controller.

-Extra unnecessary code within the cotrollermap file.

-When playing with keyboard some features are broken in the Map Menu, Racemenu, Craft Menu and Alchemy Menu.


{{Version Specific}}
Origin Version [O2]

-To be honest, its been a while since I last used this version and cannot remember what it does or if it has any issue. Please report!

-n/a

Alternative Version [A2]

-n/a.

-Please report!


Revised Version [R17.2]

Please report!

-While using a controller when creating a new character the display menu states to press Left Arrow on D-Pad when "DONE" instead of the regular "X". Don't worry its it just a display error that won't correct itself. The actual "DONE" button is still "X" like vanilla.

-When creating a new character while using a keyboard pressing "R" to complete character will not work instead you have to hover the mouse arrow on the option. I am fully aware of this I just have not figured out what is causing it. Once I discover why it being cause, I will correct it. In the mean time it is not such a big deal since you will be using mouse and keyboard anyways.
