[Help] Setting up custom keybinding, particularly with Starfield
Hey everyone,
I took the gamble on Starfield on the Deck and am honestly having a good time. The Bethesda jankiness is bringing me back to playing Oblivion. I have never used a controller with back pedals and really want to dive in. I went through the controller settings but couldn't find a way to pass through the back pedals to be assignable buttons.
What I would like to do is be able to toggle the in-game flashlight or pulling up the map. I can do the binding in game, but I just cannot figure out how to pass through the buttons to the game itself.
Would this be something the Deck would be capable of doing, and would anyone have some recommendations on good ways to use the extra rear buttons inside controller oriented games?
You're viewing a single thread.
Are you trying to configure the back buttons in steam input, or in the game's controller settings? I'd definitely recommend setting them up in steam input if the latter.
You could set the back buttons to work as keyboard keys that trigger flashlight/etc when using a keyboard and mouse. This is assuming there isn't a controller button for it already.
Tried both. Configuring in-game, the game had zero clue the buttons seemed to exist. Which makes since it’s an emulated gamepad.
I did try assigning via the controller settings key inputs I could then bind but using any non controller type input would flip the game into thinking it was mouse + keyboard. I’ve ran into this behavior a few times on the deck when adjusting the volume so this may end up being something that gets smoothed out. The game isn’t technically released yet so I don’t expect everything to be 100% smooth out of the gate.
