Can you change favorites hotkey [Vive]?
Is there a way to remap this to, say, the top button on the main hand pad, rather than the center which shares with looting? I don't know how many times I've tried to loot something and the favorites window keeps popping up instead. The left-right of the pad rotates the character (which I also don't need), so perhaps the favorites can be bound to the top instead of the center-pad?
Sorry - adjusted title in case people thought it was a guide rather than a question

Found out this lovely quirk while tracking to catch fish jumping out of the river rapids. Holy shizz, talk about annoying. Every time a fish jumps out, you try to catch it and every time you miss the favorites menu opens... sigh....

Same issue trying to harvest ingredients, especially glowing mushrooms.

Yes it's incredibly aggravating. Overall controls need to be customizable somehow. I hope someone is able to figure out how to change this

I just want to swap jump from the left grip to the right grip.

$60 and no key customization.
Amazing.

I just want to switch weapons on a hotkey instead of the annoying fav menu that keeps popping up. And disable that menu fully. Like I can on regular skyrim by pressing a number.

How would I press a number? I don't know.. customize a shift key that changes every other button to do something else. Like holding both grips down and pressing a button that normally picks up items. It's not that complicated.

At this point I'm half tempted to tape a wireless keyboard to my arm. FFS.

If you extract SkyrimVR - Main.bsa you can remap keys, it requires a bit of reverse engineering and logic though. Check out this thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/skyrimvr/comments/89tn72/guide_control_map_editing/
It explain the outer process of how to deal with the files and which ones to edit.

I know this post is old, but is there finally a solution?
I still have the problem that i can't delete the "Activate Or Favorites" function from the Right Pad Click. Though I can change right Grip from Shout to Favorites.

I tried ALMOST everything. I have messing around with controlmapvr.txt for my Vive wands, i did put 0xff in every field possible. NO RESULT. I guess that [CENTER trackpad] of right Vive wand has the action "Activate/Favorite Menu" HARDCODED. In other words, you can´t change, unless you are a Bethesda programer.

I suffered with that for 3 years. No more.

I just discovered a workaround: UNFAVORITE EVERYTHING. When you end up with 0 Favorited items, that "Activate/Favorites Menu" will be transformed in "Activate" only. You can walk, run and even misclick a flower: nothing will be displayed.

My immersion factor was just recovered. Of course i miss the favoriteS functionality, BUT...it is far more important to me be able to walk and run without that infamous menu being invasively displayed.

Good to know.. maybe it's time to write a new favorites mod, that don't work with the original favorites...
