handakof Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 does this forum even have traffic?..i am beginning to think that all the people who were supposed to answer this is now "infected"..and the server room is full of dead bodies..half eaten by the infected..most of the admins are running in the streets looking for their next meal now! :P aaah..the freedom of saying what you want to say, knowing that no one will ever read this stuff, if someone was indeed reading it..he would have answered by now :D Liar! I did read it! :O lol, well what do you know..the "infected" CAN type after all :P joking of course :D..it's just that no one would answer to this topic although it here since the game launch ..

thompsonar Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 It's a shame too. I tried googling around yesterday and still couldn't find any answer for this besides "unplug your controller and the keyboard works" which is not really a solution. Well there was that and a guy on another forum who seems to think his keyboard and mouse works just fine when he plugs in a controller (which is BS). I'm disappointed. There seems to be plenty of traffic in this forum, but no answers. I guess the next step is to try and figure out if it can be done and see if I can do it myself. Considering I've never modded any game ever it may take me a while.... perhaps it's as simple as some .ini setting? Research time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
handakof Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 I have a breakthrough right here!! as most of the xbox360 controller users, i am using the "Better Xbox360 controller" mod..which adds a full 8 hotkeys support,quick save and quick load,and auto run features to the xbox360 controller on skyrim PC..what i noticed is that the quick save feature works from both my keyboard (F5) and my controller after modding (pressing X+B)..so that just hit me! why not use the same config this button has for the rest of the buttons? so i went to skyrim folder/data/interface/PC and opened up the controlmap.txt file..and i replicated the configuration of that button for the rest of the buttons.. NOW MY WHOLE KEYBOARD WORKS WITH THE CONTROLLER ALSO WORKING! and mouse clicks too!! note that you have to check the "xbox360 controller" option in the menu for this to work. the problem now is aiming/moving the camera with the mouse..that's the only feature i couldn't figure out how to reach in my little (semi-retarded :P) mod...the only way now apparently is to un-check the 360 controller option..that's the only way the mouse could control the camera again.. the game also retains the 360 interface while using this mod, so navigating the menus should be by your controller, since all buttons do work (including mouse clicks) but the interface used the 360 one, so flipping between tabs should be with trigger buttons and not the mouse (like i said, it doesn't work right now)..HOWEVER i can easily assign E,Q to work like RT and LT to navigate menus easier.. i can post the controlmap.txt file here if any one wants it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thompsonar Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Sounds promising. I'll have to check that mod out (don't have it now) when I get home and have a little time. I'll let you know if I need the controlmap file after I've played around with it a little bit. Pretty sure I'll be able to figure it out though. Thanks a lot!

handakof Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 did you have any luck with the mouse then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thompsonar Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 Looks like I won't have time to mess around with this until this weekend (maybe). If I manage to come up with something I'll let ya know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
handakof Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 sure thing...thanks :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thompsonar Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Yeah I messed around with this a little bit but couldn't figure anything out for the mouse. I got some keys working as you did but can't get any further. I'll continue to mess with it every now and again. But I'm pretty happy with what I have now.

I want it and I probably wouldn't be able to figure it out on my own. It will still be annoying that you can't use the mouse, but at least it's halfway there.
