  • hi I've been enjoying the mod but I have a question. How do I turn down/turn off the aim assist. It's too strong and I'm not sure how to reduce it.

    • press F12 to configure client mods, you can also find the same settings on SPT/BepInEx/config/com.Amanda.Controller.cfg

  • Hei, Beautiful, Awesome and just the god-tier Modder :D


    3.10? Sadly, the 3.9 Version Breaks the Game for me. Inventory is gone and if I'm in a Raid I can soft lock myself by opening the Inventory.


    I'm using your Mods for the longest Time ever, :) Hopefully you are still interested in SPT.


    Sense, Hitmarker and Controller are must have's for me. Nearly 3 Years ago I had a terrible Injurie, but with the controller mod I really can play SPT with very little stress on my partially disabled hand. Thank you so much for all the good time!!


    Cheers and have an awesome day!!

    • Okay, at first I'd like to ask where I should put the issues. Here or better in git?


      For now, I have only one complain.

      I can't get on the "search" button while looting a dead player / pmc. Sadly, the context menu doesn't help either.


      And one thing I couldn't beleve is working for me finally :)

      Vaulting!!! Now I can vault with the controller <3 <3 <3

      The last versions didn't do this for me.

  • Great mod but I have a question, how can I enable controller use for this mod when in game? I downloaded it last night and I didn't see any usage with my PS dualsense controller.

    Heart 1

    • for PS dualsense you need to emulate a xbox controller first, some people use Steam Input.

      you also need the GitHub latest version of the mod.

    • Thanks but I did download your mod thru github and still nothing. Is there something I'm missing?!


      Another question, do I install the main mod from the github into the mods folder or the spt main folder where the exes are at?!

    • if you are already emulating a xbox controller through steam input, the installation should be the same
      pk0CqZ5.gif

    • Thanks for the help but I don't mean to bother you but I downloaded a file called armands controller main and I put it in the mods folder but it kept saying it's missing a package.json file. It's there something I might have been doing wrong?!

    • it says its missing package.json when you place the mod on the wrong folder, you need to copy and paste the BepInEx folder into your SPT directory where the exes are, see the end of the GIF for the After Installation files and path structure, you can remove the previous AmandsController from the SPT/User/Mods folder.

      the mod's download link is on the Releases page AmandsController.0.3.6.zip

  • Is there anything the user can edit in order to make this 3.9.5 compatible? Right now with this mod in 3.9.5, the game infinitely loads and never makes it to the main menu.

    • if you are using the GitHub version of the mod already and its infinitely loading then no, I'll be updating the mod to make it compatible

    • tested with 3.9.5 and couldn't find any issues, the latest mod version 0.3.6 is on AmandsController GitHub Releases you can click Assets to get the download link.

      if you had the wrong version before, delete the folder SPT/BepInEx/plugins/Controller/ and the file SPT/BepInEx/config/com.Amanda.Controller.cfg

      you need to extract with 7zip; extracting with windows or winrar might cause problems.

    • Thank you. I couldn't find the Github so I was just going to wait for it to be uploaded here. I will download and test. Thanks again!

  • Still lovin' this mod every day, but two things I want to ask


    1.) I've noticed that a slight touch of the left stick (normal movement) sometimes will cause movement that doesn't stop when the left stick isn't being touched. Originally thought it was inertia but the one time I actually tried to test this with keyboard I noticed that I stop on a dime. The main issue with this is that it makes it extremely difficult to move forward slightly to be in range of actions (open doors, filing cabinets, picking up items, etc.). Is there a setting that can adjust this? I tried changing the movement stick dead zone but that doesn't seem to affect this problem (unless I'm just not changing the dead zone number enough). If you know of any config file fix I can use it would be a huge game changer for me!


    2.) Is there a way to make holding jump (A/X on xbox/ps4 controllers) perform the mounting action? Or do you have plans to add holding jump to perform mount in future updates? Love the mod!

    • there are a couple of deadzone settings like LS, RS, MovementDeadzone they should be working but I'm going to check that.

      if mounting is the vault/mantle I can check if it's possible, if it's actual mounting from realism mod it will need the specific mod support

    • Yes sorry I didn't mean anything from the realism mod, I mean to say vaulting i.e., holding spacebar (jump) in the vanilla game to climb over or up onto a small ledge. As for question #1, if you find any way to have movement stop as soon as Left stick input is released (since right now with a controller it seems to randomly keep forward or lateral momentum even if you just tap the stick a little bit intending to just move forward and stop instantly) that would be amazing too!


      To clarify, this doesn't seem to happen every single time consistently, maybe 80% of the time a small press forward (or side strafe) of the Left stick makes the character keep walking in that direction several steps. It's super noticeable when you try with the keyboard and see how the character stops walking immediately when releasing W so I don't think it's an inertia issue. :)

  • Couch potato verified! :potat: :+1:
    It workds out-of-the-box with the good old XBox360 controller for PC.
    The control scheme is very nicely "layered" with it's modifier-button-usage. I tweaked the megnetism of the AutoAim/AimAssist a bit to make it slightly more subtle and adjusted the stick sensitivity to my style and that's it. The perfect experience!

    Unfortunately SPT 3.9.0 freezes on initial loading screen.

  • I am trying to play SPT using a handheld pc(rog ally) and was wondering if I need to change anything in the mod to get the controls to work. I downloaded as normal and added everything to the file but can’t scroll down on my character in the character view screen. All the controls in settings still read as a keyboard. Thanks for the help!

    • the mod only works in raid and doesn't show on the settings screen, if it doesn't work in raid might be because rog ally's controller is not XInput? an easy fix is running SPT through steam and using the steam input with a xinput preset but idk the details about this setup tho

    • I will give it a test run! Thanks for the input!

  • Loving this mod man. Only issue I've been having is when I drag the files from the .zip into the root of the SPtarkov folder, the controller functionality works flawlessly. But I can no longer see the lobby when entering raid that lets you either HOST or JOIN a raid.

    Any idea why this happens for me?

  • I have zero clue why you would want to play a tactical shooter like tarkov like its cod with slide canceling and b hopping but man is it entertaining to watch my friend do it

  • Loving the mod, but I have one complaint.

    I cannot aim while walking. How can I fix this, or is this a known issue at the moment?

    • if you tried an old mod version it might have left an incompatible json file at SPT/BepInEx/plugins/Controller/Default.json delete it and try again

    • Unfortunately, this is my first time ever using the mod, so I have never tried to install it until 5/31/2024.

  • Is there anything special I need to do to get the game to recongnize my controller? Or are there any known mods this is incompatible with? I am using a Dualsense controller (edit: via Bluetooth. Does this matter?) (edit2: Dualsense Wired also is not working). It's working on other games but I haven't been able to get it to work in SPTarkov at all. I have "Controller" settings in the F12 menu.

    • Character movement and aiming can't be disabled but you can increase their deadzones to 2;

      for the inputs edit the SPT/BepInEx/plugins/Controller/Default.json file to look like this:

      Code
      {
  "AmandsControllerButtonBinds": {
  },
  "AmandsControllerSets": {
  }
}

    • Thanks Amand <3

  • First of all, this mod is AMAZING! I've been using DS4Windows combined with Anitmicro (for combined input multi-set grouping) for years but this is so much better!


    Only thing I'd like to change is swapping the function of the Left and Right sticks in the "Interface" section. The default has the Right Stick moving the highlighted item up and down while the Left Stick acts like a mouse scroll wheel to move the whole item list up and down (when searching bodies). I see that we can edit the Default.json file to change button function, but is it possible to swap the stick functions so that the Right stick scrolls and the Left stick moves around individual items when searching bodies? I see multiple stick functions in the Default file but the wording has me worried about screwing up the whole file by changing the wrong text.

    • I made a build that Allows you to do it, but I haven't tested yet the implications of it, you can play around with these new settings on the F12 menu:

      InterfaceStick

      InterfaceSkipStick

      ScrollStick

      WindowStick

      AmandsController 0.3.5

    • Thank you, exactly what I was needing! Feels so much more intuitive having Scroll on the RS (since the scroll bar is far right) and the Item-Section selector being on LS since that ties with the Left side having the D-Pad for individual item selecting. Super Smooth transitions now 8)

  • Hi thanks for this awesome Mod. Can i edit the controls to my preference? Also does walking speed gradual increase to the position of LS?

    • yes, but only editing SPT/BepInEx/plugins/Controller/Default.json

      walk speed and angle is gradual with left stick

    • Thanks for the response 🤙

  • @, Hello. New version and feature [Hold Aim] works great. I hope I'm missing something though. How do you swap weapons? The first image shows (Y) on Xbox One controller. It does nothing. It's literally the only button that does not work. You can hold the right stick to switch to the melee weapon, but i can not for the life of me get any weapon to switch. Thanks in advance.

    • to switch weapons, use LB + DPAD Left, Right, Down.

      quick swap on Y is not implemented yet

      Thumbs Up 1

    • @Amand, thanks that [Hold] [LB] and DPAD worked, even Up selects a grenade. What you've done with this controller mod is absolutely phenomenal.


      Not sure if this addition/suggestion is already on a list, but

      1) Lean - Add [Hold] like you just did with aim. Nice to have it snap back.

      Thumbs Up 1

  • I have just installed the new version but however when I try to aim in merchant it creates a bug and no longer aims, on the other hand when I stop I can aim again, the Hold Aim function works perfectly thank you very much for having it added but it does the same with the activated option impossible to aim while moving

    • hi thanks for the report, can you clarify what "aim in merchant" means, so I can try to replicate the bug

    • basically when I'm walking it's impossible for me to aim, I have to be stationary to be able to aim.

  • the mod is now working with fika. But I wanted to say thank you amands for making this mod. I grew up on controller and this mod helps me with feeling more comfortable playing the game

    Thumbs Up 1

  • hello even with the updated version on REddit I can't make it work :/ I would like some help if possible

    • try deleting the file SPT/BepInEx/plugins/Controller/Default.json if you tried the old version of the mod

  • how can I reload from mag selection? Just like hold "R" and scroll mouseweel. :/ :/ :/

    • unsure if i already implemented it, ill check and if not, it will be for next update

    • u r my superman 8)

  • Hi all - Hoping someone can help me.


    I’m running SPT 3.8 annd having trouble getting the mod to work correctly on Steam Deck. I have installed the latest mod from the GitHub and SPT was installed via Lutris. The game launches perfectly and other mods are working. I am launching both the AKI server and launcher through steam in the hopes of enabling the controller support but something isn’t quite right - I can look at around with the right stick, ADS and shoot but I cannot move. Some of the mapping seems to be off as well as several buttons seem to open the disconnect/resume main menu. I think that it may need to be using a certain steam input to stop the clash/conflict??? Can anyone throw some light on this or let me know if they’ve found the right combination of settings for Steam Deck? Cannot wait to be able to play SPT with controller properly!!

    • you might need steam deck to be simulating a xbox controller when in raid.

      I sent you a message so you can send the logs in case the mod itself is not working

    • Smae issue here

  • Thank you very much for this. Your 3.8.0 Update. And all your other mods! Love you. <3


    Edit: Please help me in figuring this out: I only want the Inventory-Management, the Aim-Assist and the Analog-Movement to work. But bind everything else (Shoot, Lean, Reload, etc...) with an external Program. How would my default.json look?

    • not sure how to tell the external program that you are on the inventory so it stops with the its binds, but you can clear out "AmandsControllerButtonBinds" list and remove the sets LB, RB, LB_RB, HealingLimbSelector, Movement, Aiming, Aiming_RB

    • Works perfectly! Thank you very much!!! Got a Patreon or something?


      Edit: Oh yea. I see what you mean... Doesnt work for my case then. Still awesome Mods :D

      Thumbs Up 1

  • Hei, I really adore your mods. Sadly, 3.8 broke this one for me. Only the left stick works. No other buttons :(


    I have a "condition" which restricts my right hand / arm to function correctly. So I really love using the controller because it's so much easier for me.


    Please let me know if you will work on this again.


    And for the last years, I would like to say thank you very much. I really love all your mods, but this here is special for me.

    • AmandsController GitHub Release

      Thumbs Up 1

    • omg, i cant thank you enough. Will test it right now

    • Long story short, user error ^^

    • try deleting the file SPT/BepInEx/plugins/Controller/Default.json so the mod generates the new default binds.

      I'm assuming you opened the previous mod version and didn't do a clean install of the new mod version

    • Yeah, I saw that I had to overwrite so many files... so I thought it would be "all" new. Thanks a lot for your advice. I just tried it now for 30 seconds, but it feels all familiar now. Oh, my. I got to search your GitHub for a donation chance ^^


      Again, thank you so much. I did work on the default.json but had no idea that I could delete it to get a new one.

      Happy 1

  • thank you very much for doing this mod, being able to chill in the couch or even the bed and being able to play some raids its just in another level.


    i just wanted to know if there is a way to change the reload action and the interaction be in separates buttons of the controller, sometimes while i am trying to open a door or loot any box or whatever i reload and i have been killed few times due this. thank you again and, sorry if this has been asked

    • yes, by changing the json file located at SPT/BepInEx/plugins/Controller/Default.json

      search for ActionPanel below it you can find "X" change it to another xbox controller key

    • thank you very much boss! i just tried it and it worked <3

  • Is there a way to get active aim from Fontaine’s realism mod to work?? I’ve messed around the default json but can’t seem to figure it out.


    I.e. When on mouse you are using a night vision and have a scope that’s not night vision compatible it defaults to active aim so you use your night vision laser happened when you have a face shield as well. With the controller mod activated you push L2 and it does nothing unless you remove your night vision or face shield.


    Thanks in advance for the assistance!!

    • not possible with the default json, you can unbind there and use third party program for right mouse click. Mods key binds support is planned

    • Awesome! I will try that. Thank ya for the help!!

  • how do i unload the conroller mod? i play on keyboard but my brother plays on controller and im unsure how to unload the controller mod because when i switch back to mouse and key, the movement speed slider is set to the minimum due to the inputs from the joysticks if that makes sense.

    • pressing F1/F12, search for User Index and set it to 4, to re-enable set it back to 1.

      not being able to quickly switch is a bug and will be fixed for future versions

    • ive found if i unplug the controller, it turns off, and plugging it back in reactivates it so that works for me haha

  • It works fine. thanks. and I have one question. Can I use 'Aim Assist' option only? except any other controller setting, because i want to use '3rd party mapping program (Rewasd)' to change buttons

    • Character movement and aiming can't be disabled but the rest you can, by editing the

      SPT/BepInEx/plugins/Controller/Default.json file to look like this:

      Code
      {
  "AmandsControllerButtonBinds": {
  },
  "AmandsControllerSets": {
  }
}

  • Noob here. Installed the mod on SPT-AKI 3.7.6 (26535), Loaded the game and nothing on the controller works. Went into the controls menu and I can see that pressing the left analog lets me move through the menu options but besides that nothing else works. Using Xbox One Controller Bluetooth.

  • Was working fine yesterday - now the auto-aim / magnetism is aiming low left of the target regardless of distance making it impossible to hit anything. Any advice here? Thanks!

    • have you changed resolution, super sampling, DLSS or FSR recently?

    • I did do that - I defaulted my settings and now it is working properly. Thank you for your help!

    • I am having the same issue and yes I changed my DLSS settings. Is there a way to fix this without reverting back to the previous DLSS?


      Thanks in advance!!!

    • it should fix itself every start of a raid, either way I'll be looking into a complete fix for next version

      Thumbs Up 1

  • So I am missing something here. I have an XBOX controller, installed the mod like any other bepin mod, went into a raid but controller doesn't work. I check F12 for options but nothing listed. How do I activate the controller?

    • Maybe try loading the game via Steam?

    • Yea, that works but the point of the mod is to not need to use Steam if I am understanding this correctly.

    • It was all my fault. I copied my current AKI install to play around with the controller mod in case it caused a profile issue. I completely forgot to change the path in the launcher as it was still pointing to main AKI install. Rookie mistake and quite embarrassing.

      Thumbs Up 1

    • Awesome, glad you got it sorted..

  • Hey, so I have a quick question, I suspect I'm misunderstanding the controller scheme. I can't get the walking pose to change, I can slow lean side to side (holding B), but when I hold B and try to use the D-pad either up or down, it doesn't let me change the standing/crouching pose height. Not really the end of the world, but I can't tell if its a bug or if I'm doing something wrong and for some reason it drives me nuts. everything else is perfect except for that. Sorry for being nutty, but thanks regardless for working on such an important (and underrated) mod, proving that tarkov on a controller is possible!

    • Next walk pose and Previous walk pose is not included in the scheme by default apparently, will be fixing for future versions.

    • Ok awesome, thanks for your time!
