Everything else that people typically associate with gamepad mode, from the giant main menu, to having direct chat input on your keyboard, is entirely configurable. That’s it, that’s the only actual difference in controller functionality between the two modes. To drag the skill, there are two ways, though they are very similar. If you have your m/kb hotbars set to hide unassigned slots (Character Config, Hotbar Settings, Display), the unassigned slots will be visible while you are actively dragging Drag the skill to the spot on the hotbar.Open up the Virtual Mouse (L1 + R3), or use the touchpad, or hook up a physical mouse.Open up the menu that contains the action/item/macro/etc.

However, it doesn’t have to be a real mouse - you can use the Virtual Mouse or the Touchpad. Because these are meant for Mouse & Keyboard players, you will need a mouse to place them. Please refer to the section on working with the HUD Layout screen if you need guidance on that.Įither way, now that you have a keyboard hotbar showing, you need to place some actions down. You can do this either in Character Configuration->Hotbar->Display or in the HUD Layout screen. Depending on your controller style, this may or may not be necessary.įirst you’ll want to have a keyboard hotbar visible. Many controller players use the regular keyboard hotbars as a way to keep track of their cooldowns. This will bring up the subcommand menu and you can choose a different size. Since clicking on R3 will affect the element in “Current UI element”, how do you make the actual “HUD Layout” window bigger if it’s too small to see? For this you will need to use a mouse cursor, such as the virtual mouse, and you will need to “Right Click” on the “HUD Layout” window. This should fix any issues with it not properly detecting. With the drop down opened, exit virtual mouse mode. However if you’re trying to get back into the regular mode and it’s not coming back to the main HUD Layout menu, first get back into virtual mouse mode and “left click” on the drop down. If you’re completely done, you could just use Mouse mode to hit Save and hit the Exit button. Sometimes it does freak out a little if you are switching between the two modes. Help, I used virtual mouse and now I’m having trouble getting back into the regular mode In this mode, you can combine both cursor and gamepad controls as you can still choose to use R3 to cycle through element sizes, and you can now use the d-pad to do a more fine-tuned movement of the element. Then you can Hold Left Click and use the Movement analog to move things around, or use Right Click to disable the element. Use the movement analog to go to an element and you can use Left Click to select it. If you enable the virtual mouse, you can edit the HUD Layout in the same way a mouse user would.Īs a reminder, to enter Virtual Mouse, use Auto-Run + Right Click (L1 + R3) and it does need to be enabled in System Configuration.
