📋 About This Mod
I've heard from a commenter that JoytoKey now moves your profiles to your documents folder - He describes the location to move the profile. Id Give directions but I havent had access to a PC since mine fried years ago. But as I understand - the folder you need to move it to is now inside your standard Documents folder. And remember you have to truely exit JoytoKey via the File - Exit, or close with Task Manager to get it to show up once added
This mod allows you to play Morrowind with an Xbox 1 Controller, you will have to use the analog sticks to navigate menus just like using a mouse but I worked very hard to make it smooth and its a lot easier to control than youd think. To install you will need the free and easy JoyToKey program, one you download that just unzip this file and plop it inside the folder that has your JoyToKey.exe (will be called JoyToKey_en).
Here are some of the controls RT=Attack LT=Ready Magic Rb/Lb=Quickslots 1&2 Y=Jump X=Ready Weapon B=Inv/menu A=Interact/talk Left and Right D-pad=Cycle Magic and Weapon
Clicking R Analog stick =Change View & if you hold it in allows free camera to inspect your character Clicking L Analog stick =Sneak Down D-pad=Wait Up D-pad=Toggle Walk/Run but you dont need to use this, because I made it so you can walk/run with the analog stick depending how far you move it just like you can on the console. Pause button for Exit menu/Saving/Options and Back button for Quest Log.
INSTALLATION --
To install simple download this, unzip with Winrar or Winzip or whatever you use just like any other mod, and take the file and put it directly inside your JoytoKey folder usually called
JoyToKey_en if you downloaded it in english - if JoyToKey is open when you do this, Make sure you actually go to File and select Exit JoytoKey or it wont show up until you do. If you want to make sure your in the right folder you will see JoyToKey.exe, JoyToKey.ini and a few others inside.
I hope you enjoy!
