Does this work for arma reforger?

[Mo¡stDreams]

no download?

[NikkoJT]

I would recommend putting Car Fast Forward on the trigger and skipping Car Forward. That way you can get the full range of acceleration without needing to press anything else, and free up A for other uses.

ifoundmytree. step by step

click "options>controls>controller.
on that screen you will click "controller(xbox 360 for window)"
when you click it right below it you will see disable.
now you will see "controller(xbox 360 for window)" in the window above where it was. and now you can adjust any settings you want

i cant believe it is so difficult to just customize and simple set of buttons for a game. wtf happened.

[Widge]

i've look everywhere for Disable "CONTROLLERS WITH SCHEME" i literally cant see this in any menu i've checked...... disapointing stuff. i thought this would be an answer. its like everything else though. HALF THE ANSWER

[Widge]

how do you actually do this though.... i mean there is no description on how to actually Disable "CONTROLLERS WITH SCHEME....... where is that? what menu's? tell me exactly like i am a tiny baby with no brain step by step by step by step guide how to do this.

[mckernan126]

great guide but how do you chsnge from say driving to flyimg etc

[Rastek]

And here i thought no one had the balls to dare play arma with a controller

[Birdman656]

I genuinely am glad for this guide, the hate on this because its a controller is unnecessary. Its a guide for people who prefer controllers, not a post saying you should use one. Stop losing your heads over an informative guide and just play the damn game, let people have fun, because that's what games are for. You can stop pissing over anyone that doesn't play exactly like you. Not everyone is going to play on a controller and the same goes for mnk, stop turning simple things into a huge hate rant
