I'm struggling to get the FPS layer to work in game. When I apply the control scheme to my gamepad, I have 2 GamePads listed in SC as 'N/A' - I guess SC doesn't know what to call it? But when I open that menu again, I see 'N/A' assigned for a split second and then it defaults back. I've tried applying it to either or both, but I can't get it to work. It's still using the default keybinds for the gamepad, for instance Interact is set to Right Shoulder instead of A.
I also have vJoy and Joystick Gremlin installed, they are only managing my flight sticks. I don't know if they are complicating things here.
I am very excited for the release of Star Citizen 4.0 (Preview) in the next few hours. Have you put any thought into some updates for the new configs for 4.0? Wouldn't be able to play it as comfortably without your efforts!
Hi, first of all : great layout! However I cannot get both joystick to work while in a ship... Any idea why ?
Edit : I realised that the problem only happens once I sit in the pilot seat on my ship. All of a sudden every joystick action and paddles ( xbox elite ) stop working.
Funny enough , they work in arena commander free flight so Im kind of at a loss here.
I don't know what to make of the issue you're having, sounds like SC being SC. I did just upload a new version of the controller mapping, maybe try it out and let me know if that helps.
If you are running Steam, make sure you turn it off completely. Steam has a tendency to override controllers. Also Just double check that the sticks are set in the SC keybindings. Look under "Flight Movement."
That's all I can think of right now. If you find a solution please let us know what works!
I've tried this several times and can't get the right stick to behave properly. When I move the right stick even a tiny bit it jumps straight up in the air or straight down to the floor. I have zero incremental movement at all. I've tired the older version and the the most resent version that you uploaded as a fix.
Left stick works fine, it's just the right stick that constantly freaks out..
it could be you have the right stick somehow mapped to the arrow keys. I had this issue once, but the mapping files should address it. I suggest you check this manually in rewasd and in game.
Hey there, I have found a possible solution. If you have Steam running, steam has an automatic remapping bug for the xbox elite controllers, this causes the right stick to misbehave, along with some other keys. Turn off Steam or go into steam options and shut off this automatic remapping.
Hey, thanks for this controller setup, I've enjoyed Star Citizen more than ever being able to lie on the couch and play!
Do you have plans to update for 3.21.x? I would really like to be able to control the Ship and hand tractor beams with the controller. I tried to figure out the tractor controls but cannot figure out where the Tractor bindings are exactly in the in game settings menu.
I reset my keybinds back to default to try out. All I could figure out was: Left click enables tractor, C centers, S changes tractor position. Scroll wheel makes a noise but does nothing, Alt + Scroll wheel also makes a noise but does nothing. Can't figure out if rotate works with R as I can't scroll an object in.
Not sure if it is a bug, quite possible, using the C1's Tractor turret to test, cannot pick up any objects.
I'm working on this right now. X and Y on the controller should move the tractor beam near and far. I've mapped "R", or "rotate" to holding down the select button, but I cannot get it to work properly. I also have an issue with the "detach" option. I can't seem to get it working. Once I have this working I will upload a new version. I'm not sure if the issues have something to do with the patch or not.
The import file for reWASD doesn't register right on the right stick correctly. I think it defaults to Ins so you have to select the right analog stick moving right from the drop down list.
Hi, the layout is great, it can be a bit tricky to use the right stick with the A button to interact, also, is there a change camera view setting? Thanks
Yes, for the A to interact, I turned on the Toggle for interact mode in the game settings. I highly suggest doing this, it should be listed on the front page and the read me. This allows you to click A, move with the right stick, and use LB + the backside's top right bumper button to select, or click with the right stick.
To change camera view to the third person, I've mapped this to the chat pad. This is one of the few things I've mapped solely on the chatpad's "/" button. I did have a previous version where I used the select button, but this just became too cumbersome when flying, as I needed the buttons for other things. I do recommend getting a chat pad if you can. Even for things I do have mapped on the controller like call landing zone, the chatpad's extension just makes things such a breeze.
Please let me know if you have any suggestions. I will update this layout again soon with some updates.
Thank you Jar Jar, I missed the recommendation to make it a toggle, that’s a great help, I’m going to get a chat pad, thanks for the help, this makes it so enjoyable using the controller, great profile.

I'm updating a new 4.0 binding soon, so keep an eye out. After it's uploaded try it out and let me know if your problem persists.

Which ReWASD package do I need to have to use this config? Do I just need the $7 single PC, or is the Advanced Mapping needed as well?
what is defaults to lns ? I never noticed that.
thanks
