Gamepad Plus Plus

At last fellow gamepad players no longer need you feel constrained by the restricted vanilla functionality of your controller!

Gamepad++ unlocks many new features allowing seamless play with both your controller as the primary input AND your keyboard for endless hotkeys without conflict.  This all-new version of Gamepad++ has been rewritten from the ground up to give full compatibility and integration with iEquip.

It has always been a major frustration that without the use of third party software like XPadder there has been no ‘native’ way of setting controller keypress combinations as hotkeys.  The best you could hope for was using a custom controlmap.txt which enabled combos to emulate the keyboard 1-8 SkyUI favourites/equip sets hotkeys, which is all well and good but I never use them!  Then I came across Better Gamepad key support (an SKSE Plugin) by NeoH4x0r.  Whilst it in itself does not do what I was after a conversation with Neo yielded the code snippet which ultimately led to GAMEPAD++.

Yeah, yeah, very good.  But what does this actually do?  Well I'm glad you asked...

• []Most vanilla single click button actions retained with the exception of stick clicks, RB/Right Shoulder and B.

  []LB/Left Shoulder, RB/Right Shoulder and B buttons now act as Combo keys (see below).

  []Quick direct access to Inventory, Stats, Magic and Map through new combos, plus Tween Menu still available through new combo.

  []Favourites moved to a new button combo to free up DPad Left and Right.

  []New button combos to access console, quicksave, quickload, and native screenshot.

  []Four way scrolling in Map using DPad (left stick still works as cursor as well).

  []Right stick click on Map to place custom marker.

  []Scroll in menus and Favourites using left stick.

  In addition to all of this nearly all keyboard mapping has been removed allowing you to use almost any keyboard key as a mod hotkey.  This also removes the need to disable your controller when typing in console, entering your character name in RaceMenu or any number of other occasions when having the controller enabled whilst using the keyboard would cause weirdness.

  We also removed some of the mouse mapping allowing you t
