Code: Select all
A - Action
B - Inventory/Magic/Map/Skills prompt
X - Ready weapon
Y - Jump
Start - Journal/System tab
Select - Wait
RB - Use ability/shout
RT - Use right hand
LB - Sprint
LT - Use left hand
Right stick press - Third person camera
Left stick press - Sneak
D-pad up - Shortcuts menu
This is why I thought that some sort of small menu with a couple options would be really useful for people who would prefer to play with a controller (yes, I know it sounds dumb, but bear with me). Maybe an extra option with these actions could be added to the game, or a mod could be made with a small prompt which could contain such actions. Such a menu could also be of use to people who play with Mouse and Keyboard as sort of a "quick action menu" of sorts, which they could map to any key/button of their choosing, so it's basically a win-win.
This is essentially why pressing B in console Skyrim brings up a prompt with the options to see your inventory, magic, skills and map is brought up, because there's not enough buttons in a controller to use for an Elder Scrolls game, even for one as simplistic as Skyrim.
In the end, because I mapped some buttons differently (due to some actions not being the same, obviously), I ended up mapping everything as such:
Code: Select all
A - Action
B - Inventory
X - Ready weapon
Y - Jump
Start - Pause menu
Select - Wait
RB - Cast Spell
RT - Attack
LB - Sprint
LT - Change weapon hand
Right stick press - Crouch
Left stick press - Sneak
D-pad up - Transport
D-pad left - Grab interaction mode
D-pad down - Steal interaction mode
D-pad right - Look interaction mode
