Key rebinding and button remapping in Definitive Edition

[Sofie]

Heya!

In the Definitive Edition, it's possible to rebind keyboard inputs and controller button mappings for directInput. We didn't get to build this into the game, but there are some .txt files that you can edit.

Mouse and Keyboard rebindings
Browse here in the file explorer:
%localappdata%/Ori and the Blind Forest DE/KeyRebindings.txt
An explanation is provided in the file.

DirectInput controller remapping
Browse here in the file explorer:
%localappdata%/Ori and the Blind Forest DE/ControllerButtonRemaps.txt
An explanation is provided in the file.


Note that these files will only be created after starting up the game at least once. If they do not show up for you, try starting the game and it will create them.

If you ever want to get rid of the rebinding that you did, you can delete these two files and restart the game after. The files will regenerate fully cleared and the game will return to the basic control scheme.

I can't seem to get it to work. I'm trying to rebind Light Burst, which I assume is labelled as "Gernade", but it's not working.

Ah, yeah light burst isn't hooked to grenade. It's hooked to "Spirit Flame". Woops! should've clarified that I guess. Good find :)

Actually I got it to work. I just forgot to change "Activate Key Rebinding" to true. Oops...

Also, while I'm here, what are "Filter" and "Focus"?

Filter means changing the filter in the leaderboards
Focus means focusing on ori in the world map

Alright, thanks.

Hi Developers, please post a legend indicating what the numbers in the controller mappings mean. For Example 1=Jump, etc. Thanks!

And now it's left to players to rebind the key in a text file... progress never stops. :/

Does this work for the other mouse buttons? I'm currently using my mouse's program to have my "Mouse 4" act as "L Ctrl" but if I can do that with this method it would be easier. Dash is ridiculously more convenient as a thumb press.

Apreciate that you can now rebind keys.

But I recommend to add "rebind keys" option through in-game option for make it more comfortable and have a better look than remap it through a text file outside the game.

TL;DR: I suggest adding remap keys option inside the game in a future update.

Sorry for any possible typos.

Can triggers be remapped successfully? I've read one person reporting they had to resort to third party software to correct mapping issues involving the triggers.

Also +1 for an in game user interface to remap controls. From a disabled access point of view this is pretty important.

I am not a computer person what do I do to find this file to rebind controls. I thought I could just deal with the default controls but I've gotten to a point in the game where I can't deal with it anymore

[Chill Fiend]

never mind my brother helped me

[Chill Fiend]

Can't believe I made it just before Mount Caru with those default controls
