📋 About This Mod
V2.0 released. This is a preset package that thoroughly pursues the ability to play Skyrim using only a gamepad whenever possible. Almost all controls, except for Console Command inputs, are integrated into the gamepad.
MaestroLiendre created almost perfectly what I was trying to do without GPP, I would recommend using FULL SKYRIM CONTROLLER (NOLVUS) Preset.
New Era Controlmap & Preset Package V2
This is a preset package that thoroughly pursues the ability to play "Skyrim" using only a gamepad whenever possible.
Almost all controls, except for Console Command inputs, are integrated into the gamepad.
My goal this time was not just a ControlMap.txt replacer, but a preset package combining multiple mods.
This is a guide for gamepads that combines multiple mods in a gamepad environment and thoroughly pursues a comfortable operation for the player.
You do not need to install all of the mods listed here.
Please remove any mod presets that you do not need.
Importantly, this collection of my presets is only a suggestion.
In the end, you should customize it as you like and work out the best settings.
Also, to be honest, the reason I want to stick to gamepad-only controls is because I want to play Skyrim SE in a mobile device like Steam Deck with lots of mods.
It is never comfortable to use a touch screen keyboard and controller together.
Requirements & Setup GuideEssential Requirements:
Gamepad++Important - Cautions about controlmap.txt
- Manual load preset requiredIf controlmap_custom.txt exists in the Skyrim folder, delete or disable it.
As is true for all mods that install controlmap.txt, not just this one, it may be necessary to restore Skyrim's control settings to default beforehand. If you have changed the key configurations in the in-game settings, a controlmap_custom.txt file may have been generated in the Skyrim directory. controlmap_custom.txt should be deleted or its extension changed, if present.
I have seen posts from other mod's user post who say that there was no such file and now they can't operate it, or that it is a glitch in the mod.
But this is a Skyrim spec, not a mod glitch.
The directory to look for is SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Skyrim Special Edition\.
(The target directory is not AppData\Desktop\Documents\My Games\Skyrim Special Edition\ nor is it Skyrim Special Edition\Data\.)
