How to disable PhotoMode on a controller?

[Miskonius]

During fights I constantly activate PhotoMode on a controller (LS+RS) and I am just about fed up with it.
Is there any way to disable this [redacted] which I have no intentions of ever using?
I tried deleting the inputs for PhotoMode in input settings in My Documents/Witcher 3 and saving the changes, but it makes no difference whatsoever when in game.

Doesn't look like it. all you can do is probably edit with notepad++ and delete each line that says enable photo mode in the input.settings file in documents/witcher. There's alot.

Yes, I see now that there's way more lines than I thought. Lol

[BASE_CameraMovement]
IK_U=(Action=EnablePhotoMode)
IK_Pad_LeftThumb=(Action=EnablePhotoMode_Step1) <- delete after 1st =
IK_MouseX=(Action=GI_MouseDampX)
IK_MouseY=(Action=GI_MouseDampY)
IK_Pad_RightThumb=(Action=EnablePhotoMode_Step2) <- delete after 1st =
IK_Pad_RightAxisX=(Action=GI_AxisRightX)
IK_Pad_RightAxisY=(Action=GI_AxisRightY)

should look like this when youre done, click save, set to "read only"
[BASE_CameraMovement]
IK_U=(Action=EnablePhotoMode)
IK_Pad_LeftThumb=
IK_MouseX=(Action=GI_MouseDampX)
IK_MouseY=(Action=GI_MouseDampY)
IK_Pad_RightThumb=
IK_Pad_RightAxisX=(Action=GI_AxisRightX)
IK_Pad_RightAxisY=(Action=GI_AxisRightY)

Also head to the header [combat] and repeat the same steps on the same
IK_Pad_LeftThumb=(Action=EnablePhotoMode_Step1),IK_Pad_RightThumb=(Action=EnablePhotoMode_Step2)

base camera movement and combat should cover your Combat issue while still allowing cameramode on horse, in boat etc etc etc

if that doesnt work I will look more into, but im pretty dang certain that should turn off photomode for combat alone.

Thanks dude!
Just in case I went full autistic and deleted all the lines that have PhotoMode in them.
Everything is peachy now! 👍🏻

Exactly the same issue. Every fight I tend to enable photo mode on controller by accident. Annoying... Cannot disable in game settings?
Never used photo mode and never will.
