About this mod

XPadder profile for TW1. Has multiple sets which map all game keys(weapons,fights styles,magics etc), UI keys and even the mouse scroll wheel. RB or LB can be used to shift into other sets while those buttons are pressed. Adds support for walking in addition to running. Controls labeled in XPadder, have a look at the screenshots to see how it works

Requirements
Permissions and credits
This is my newest XPadder profile for the Witcher. It has multiple sets and maps all the game keys. I've already released another one sometime in December but I found the profiles to be so different that I decided to release this one as a separate mod for the sake of disambiguation. If you've used the old one and didn't like it, give this one a go as alot of the issues in the old profile have been resolved.

All the Controls are labeled in XPadder, just have a look at the screenshots to see how it works.

If you download this and you like it, please take a moment to endorse the mod for no other reason than it would be nice to know that my work is appreciated.

Control Map for version 1.1:
----------------------------------------------------

Different Sets (Main,Additional,UI) will have Different Keypresses and Functions available. Have a look at the screenshots for the control scheme. You
start in Main (which is mainly dedicated to Silver/Steel sword combat, switching styles etc) and can temporarily switch to the Additional set (dedicated to magic and the use of other weapons) as long as the LB is pressed. When LB is released, you switch back to Main. When RB is pressed you temporarily switch to a set dedicated to easier navigation of the UI. This set also has the DPad mapped between 1-4 for dialogue choices. As soon as RB is released, you go back to Main. Pressing RB+LB switches you to a fourth set that extends DPad from 5 to 8 but is otherwise the same as the 3rd. Needing to keep RB or LB pressed instead of using them as toggles for switching sets will avoid confusion as to what set you're in.
 
Hints:
-----------------------------------------------------
-You can use the DPad for magic but can also use it for dialogue prompts (1 to 5). Alternatively, if you don't want to switch between Main and
Additional for the dialogue prompts, the UI1 set has the DPad mapped from 1 to 4 (RB pressed) and UI2 has DPad mapped from 5-8(LB+RB).
-The A button is mapped to enter in order to dismiss/accept prompts and start(ESC) can be used to cancel.
-If you an extra Monitor, you can put the Xpadder Window on it to use it as a reference until you get used to the scheme.

 Instructions:
-----------------
 - if you don't have it already, you can get xpadder from: http://xpadder.com (paid) / http://sourceforge.net/projects/xpadder/
(free)
 - if you don't have a controller profile, you can use mine (see download section)
 - ***** VERY IMPORTANT *****  in Witcher, map the button P for walking AND remap the "show names" button to: , (default is alt)
- Deadzone/Mouse sensitivity:  these parameters are going to be different
 for everybody, so you'll have to set them yourselves if mine don't work
 for you. here's how to change them:

Deadzone: how far do you need to move the analog stick from dead-center before xpadder registers movement along the stick's axis. Will depend on your controller and it's condition (mine is at 8% right now but they're usually somewhere between 15-25% for regular Microsoft controllers). If you set the deadzone too low, the mouse will move by itself and WASD keyboard input will be sent while the sticks are at rest. You want to find the lowest deadzone you can get away with without getting ghost input because the higher the deadzone is, the less control you'll have.
    
How do you find Deadzone: XPadder will tell you when it's perceiving a signal by turning the buttons or sticks green. The deadzone you want is just above that point where the buttons around the stick are green while it's at rest. To change deadzone right click on stick in question and press settings. If you want to make WASD less reactive, you can higher the deadzone even more.

Mouse sensitivity: right click right thumbstick and choose mouse settings: increase or decrease emulation speed. Be sure to adjust deadzone and sensitivity for all sets.
