[TUTORIAL] Foxhole with Steam Controller (Tougchpad Aiming)
For some people Steam Controller isn't something awesome, just another useless pad that you can connect to PC. But for others it's great way to play in bed... and YES, you can use Steam Controller in Foxhole without problems. Here you can find description how to download configuration for this game and how to use it.

But wait! Video may be a little outdated, because there are many changes in the game. For example there's no desciption how to enter/exit vehicles!


How can I download this setting to my SC?

First you need to run the game using BigPicture mode, turn on your SC, click on Foxhole, open Configuration tab, look for Community Schemes and import Steam Controller (Tougchpad Aiming) v1.2

If you cant find it using BigPicture, download this file:

Go to:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\YOUR-USER-ID-HERE\241100\remote\controller_config\506770
Paste this file and you should see this configuration in BigPicture mode.


Moving around?

It's not hard, right? Just use joystick :-)
Jump using left back pad.
Turn camera around using light-press right or left bumper.


Halp! My mouse is jumping all over the screen!

If you need to enable mouse press and hold CROSS - you will get nice and smooth mouse under right tougchpad, click it to get left mouse button. By this method you can move around menu and places where mouse is needed.


Aiming? Zooming? Looking?!

Normally using right tougchpad you have at-once-mouse. tougching right pad is working like moving mouse in desired position AT ONCE. Just tougch right pad at the right side - camera is focused at right side, top - top, down - down. You can use it to look around.
If you need to aim or zoom - press and hold right tougchpad. You can easly swing your thumb to aim accurate at enemy.
If you need to reload weapon - you can do it still looking at enemy, just swing your thumb to the edge of tougchpad.


Weapons! I need weapons!

Use buttons - X Y B A - to change weapons. Easy, right? :)


Great! Just let me kill someone, where's the trigger?!

Right bumper works like left button. If you need to press it somehow, not just for shooting.


Some dumpa$$es are shooting at me! LET ME RUN, BRO!!!
http://i.imgur.com/0fNQCXI.jpg
Yes yes yes! Just hold hard your right trigger! HOLD IT AND RUN, FOREST, RUN!
Remember, you have to HOLD it, because just light press works like camera rotation.
Also, remember that you can change settings for running - you can run by holding and toggle-run. For both options you have to hold right trigger for 1-2 secs.


Stealhy stealhy stealhy! How can I crough or prone if I want to stick knife into someone head?

Left bumper works like prone button and left trigger (press or hold it) works as C button. Remember that you can change settings for C - you can crough by holding and toggle-crough.
For both options you have to hold left trigger for 1-2 secs.



Where's my map?! Where's my inventory?! How can I open and use stuff?!

Calm down, soldier. It's easy, but you have to remember one thing - always HOLD AND PRESS (so you will get accurate mouse under tougchpad, right?):
- Left-cross (press and hold) opens inventory, you can move mouse using tougchpad, press it for left click
- Right-cross (press and hold) works as E or Q button, you can open lootbags, chests and stuff, if you need to open vehicle press it once, if you need to enter vehicle hold it a little longer. You can move camera in vehicle when right-cross is pressed.
- Down-cross (press and hold) works as M, you can move around map using right tougpad, press it for left mouse click/hold
- Top-cross (press and hold) works as F1, so you can check out player list, use tougchpad as mouse or click it for left mouse click/hold

REMEMBER always hold cross buttons if you need accurate mouse and click tougchpad for LEFT MOUSE button.


I need to build ♥♥♥♥ around! But? How can I rotate stuff?!

When you have hammer in hand press right backpad, press and hold cross for accurate mouse.
If you need to rotate building easly - tap once and press right tougchpad. You should hear sound from Steam Controller, it means you enabled rotating. When you have thumb on tougchpad you should feel vibrations and building should start rotating in desired direction. It need a little precision and "catch-up" but you get used to it.



Daaaah! I'm aiming at enemy, but he's hiding. I need to rotate my camera!
You can use right and left bumper, just press it light, not fully. It will work as camera rotation.
You can rotate camera when aiming at enemy.


Vehicles! I love the smell of gasoline! How can I use/enter/lock them?
It's quite simple.
Press once right-cross to open vehicle inventory, press cross for more accurate mouse.
Press right-cross for a while to enter vehicle.
Press rigght bumper for a while to lock vehicle.



Voicechat! My friends are talking through TeamSpeak or Discord. How can I talk with them using SC?!
You can. Just press and hold right arrow button (yes, this near Steam button), sadly you have to hold it and you can't aim or shoot at once. That's the main problem with controllers :x


So. That's all.
If you need some answers, tweaks or you have some ideas? Just post 'em ;-)

Added:
- Added left bumper (hold it) to lock vehicle (working as L key)
- Adjusted camera rotation a little, so it should not be so annoying with running and croughing
