About this mod

This mod blocks the automatic control-scheme change when different inputs are detected. Very useful if you are using a controller button layout mod, which maps buttons to the keyboard.

Permissions and credits
A VERY simple script-change which blocks the automatic control-scheme change whenever a keyboard-input is detected. The purpose with this mod is to help people using AntiMicro, Xpadder or similar mappers to avoid complications such as potions randomly swapping. 

NOTE: This works on another level than "LockControlScheme=2". Even if you lock your control-scheme in the Hidden.ini, your game will still try to swap between keyboard and controller whenever you use a mapped key repeatedly. 

I hope this helps anyone having the same annoyance with controller-mods as I did, as I've seen a lot of people complain over the same issue.

Also, this is currently modded for the Xbox-controller (XB1 and 360), but it's very simple to tweak to other controllers following these steps:

Install instructions:

1.) Locate your witcher-game, e.g "SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\The Witcher 3"
2.) If you do not already have a folder called "Mods", create one.
3.) Extract the files inside the mods-folder.
4.) Done!

If you have a controller other than the Xbox One or 360 pad:

1.) Open inputManager.ws with any text-editor.
2.) Locate line 54.
3.) On all the lines where it says "IDT_Xbox1", swap this to your controller of choice, e.g: "IDT_PS4" for PS4, "IDT_Steam" for the steampad.
4.) Save the file and reboot your game.

If you have any questions or comments, let me know.
