📋 About This Mod
This is upload of my mini mod from reddit, but I updated it a bit (cosmetic stuff). This is a replacement for buttons icons, so instead of useless xbox buttons you have keyboard keys corresponding to DEFAULT settings. This mod is based on Kyodan\'s interface, but white keys he used weren\'t very readable, so I fired my photoshop and changed keys as well as text. Now you have black keys with white text. It contrasts better and IMHO fits game more. I also included PSD file so you can change keys if needed. Feel free to use this little mod as you see fit, I consider this an OSP. Changelog: 1. 1 - Current release *fixed mismatched controls for menu keys 1. 0. 1 - Initial release Installation Instructions: 1. You need latest DSfix installed 2. In DSfix.ini set enableTextureOverride value to 1 3. Put PNG file in \"\\dsfix\\tex_override\" 4. IMPORTANT! PC version of DS have two different sets of buttons for switching in menus and ingame (when picking up items etc.). There is no way for me to make both sets work at the same time, so you will need to change keys so they match \"Ins\"/\"Del\" switching in menus. Sorry, cant do anything about this.
