Thanks for the mod. Figured I'd ask (completely understand its been years since you've probably looked at this, so even if you read it, don't feel obligated to reply lol), but, how exactly did you make the "show bindings" portion display? I was thinking of trying to modify the controller layout a bit, but I figured it'd be pretty helpful if I could show the bindings in game like this mod does it.

I have this weird issue where I can tell this works, but my mouse cursor is not centered on the screen. This makes it impossible to really move. Basically, what can I do to make the cursor centered on my character?

@Adrian Pimento Yes, I am successfully using this mod in my game and it wasn't that difficult to setup (PC and XBox controller)

Hey there, wow I didn't think anyone was still using this mod :)
I was able to use my xbox one controller way back when, so I'm hoping you still can.

will xbox one controller work?

@Aherin

Thanks!

In case anyone else encounters this, here's how I got it:

1) Ensure the Xbox 360 controller is connected and enabled in Steam:
- "Steam" menu tab
- Settings
- Controller
- "General Controller Settings" button

Make sure "XBox Configuration Support" is check-marked in the list.
Your controller should be listed under the "Detected Controllers" field.

2) Find and apply Aherin's controller profile:
- Open Big Picture Mode (icon in the upper right, or, under the "View" menu tab)
- Library
- Select "Torchlight 2"
- In the left-side menu, select "Manage Game"
- Select "Controller Configuration"
- Next screen shows your controller. At the bottom, click "Browse Configs"
- Select "Community" category
- Find and select Aherin's configuration called: "TL2 Universal Binding (Xbox 360 Controller)"
- Click "Apply Configuration"
- Done!

Thanks again for the help!

@Hatchet_Jack: Sorry you're having trouble man. I haven't updated this mod in a long time now. There could be info in the description that's probably not valid anymore after steam has been updated.

Is there a place in the controller configs section to paste that link? I got it to work if I posted the link in a regular google search (not in big picture) but then I couldn't do anything with it. Try having your controller connected and it might work,

If it helps, the name of the profile that you can search for is:
TL2 Univeral Binding (Xbox 360 Controller)

Hi There.
In the instructions, it says:

"You will need this controller profile to make it work (Updated 6/9/18):
steam://controllerconfig/200710/1504772779 (Open up big picture and post this link into the web search function)"

But I'm having some trouble here. I can open Big Picture and navigate to the web browsing icon. It then asks to select between Google, Youtube, etc. I assume Google is the correct choice, as its the only option that is a search engine. When I paste the link into the address bar and try to use it, nothing happens.

I noticed that among the Tochlight II community controller configurations, there is one that was prepared by you for an alternative Xbox 360 controller configuration. Is that what the link is trying to point to?

@Leo, don't give up man - it should be working fine. Just try to follow the more detailed steps on the main mod page here:
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1444204436

Just remember to use this steam controller profile:
steam://controllerconfig/200710/1504772779

I haven't touched this mod or anything to do with TL2 in a few years so I'm pretty rusty but I can try to help if you give me more details..

Im using a xbox 360 gamepad and its not working for me. Im disapointed because torchlight 2 is my favorite dungeon crawler
Aherin  [author] Nov 3, 2019 @ 9:06pm 
@MestreeBR, it still works fine if you apply the steam controller profile to an Xbox one controller. The only difference is that the button icons wouldn't look the same. It's not a big enough deal to remake it specifically for Xbox one I'm a afraid
マスターBR Nov 2, 2019 @ 2:50pm 
Hello
It would be possible to do the same for the control of xbox one, now with official release would not be simpler ???
Aherin  [author] Aug 16, 2019 @ 9:11pm 
Hi @vindigoland
Hmm, the more mods you have, the more likely it's going to muck things up. Did you properly set the steam controller profile that I linked in the description? Also make sure that you have set key bindings to default in the game settings. This will ensure everything syncs up with the steam profile, the game keybinds and the ui I've made.

Maybe just give me a list of all your mods just in case as well.
If it's something to do with steam and your third party controller, there's nothing much I can do.
Vasant Zevrani Aug 11, 2019 @ 3:15am 
I am having trouble with the keybindings. I can only move up down and right with my character always pulling to diagonal between down and right when my joystick is in neutral. The shift button is not working to bring up the skill tab as well. I am using other mods Synergy is the biggest. The rest are additional classes creatures and enhanced character creating or loot drop mechanics. If the complete list of mods would help let me know. And i am using a third party xbox 360 controller the company is Power A. Any insight would be greatly appreciated. And thank you for all the work you put into a mod for controller use. I was raised a console kid and am not used to the keyboard and mouse. But i love steam in general and especially due to the mod community.
Aherin  [author] Jul 27, 2019 @ 11:21pm 
Lots of reasons why it might not work for you bro. I'll try to help you but I need more info.

Most likely is a mod conflict. What other mods are you using? What aspect is not working? The UI is not displaying properly, or are the keybinds not working? Something else?
OxyDonJo Jul 26, 2019 @ 6:05am 
It doens´t work. Why?
BMP Jun 2, 2019 @ 4:04pm 
Yo much love for this one! Thank you so much.
Aherin  [author] Feb 10, 2019 @ 9:52pm 
It's obviously not designed for a PS2 controller, so the button layouts in the ui won't match. But it should technically 'work' on any controller as long as steam is able to recognize it. Try applying the profile I've linked in the mod description and see what happens...
Exodox212 Feb 10, 2019 @ 9:47am 
this works for a ps2 controller?

Aherin  [author] Oct 10, 2018 @ 9:51pm 
Hi, yes it should work fine with Xbox one controller. You'll have to still assign the controller profile in the description. It'll need to be turned on and plugged in and then you should be able to force steam to use my custom profile.
Woolmammoth987 Oct 10, 2018 @ 4:19pm 
im sure this has been asked but does this mod support xbone controller? thanks!
Aherin  [author] Oct 3, 2018 @ 5:14am 
*Made it so the player can't use skills (but is also invunerable) when the wayportal menus are open. This will stop the player using skills bound to x and y when using the quick keys. (At the moment this only works for single player. I can make it for mp too but I'd need people to help me test it.)
Aherin  [author] Sep 29, 2018 @ 2:17pm 
@Steeller_MRG what is the problem you're having exactly? Are you trying to run it without using the steam controller profile?
Aherin  [author] Sep 27, 2018 @ 4:43am 
*Updated screenshots to reflect latest tweaks
Aherin  [author] Sep 22, 2018 @ 6:28pm 
*Made the buff borders a bit duller to differentiate from active skill border.
Aherin  [author] Sep 22, 2018 @ 5:47am 
*Added a gold border to player buff icons so you can tell them apart from the skill icons better. I've found in the heat of battle, looking down there can be confusing with cooldown and effect timers of the same skill running right next to each other.
Aherin  [author] Sep 6, 2018 @ 5:23am 
*Hey guys I also updated the controller profile as well. Sometimes the skills on the right stick weren't firing all the time. I widened the button radius. It should work better now.

You'll need to recopy the link and apply it for it to update.
Aherin  [author] Sep 6, 2018 @ 5:03am 
*Fixed (I think!) an issue where sometimes the settings menu would show after you quit to main menu
Aherin  [author] Sep 5, 2018 @ 3:02pm 
Thanks for your support man. I'm pretty happy with the steam controller layout, but I'd say this Xbox one needs some more tweaking. I'd rather not use the right stick for skills and have it just for moving the mouse. My problem is partly that my Xbox controller is old and a bit crappy. If Anyone has any ideas for controller schemes and can help me test that'd be very helpful!
Milouze Sep 5, 2018 @ 12:53pm 
Man I'm so glad some people work on solutions for us to enjoy the game using an Xbox controller !
I subscribed and rated. Will not try the game if your mod's not 100% finished and perfect from your point of view. I would like to 100% Torchlight II, but can't do it if I'm missing a well designed controller scheme.
Thank you so much for the efforts put into this :ChipJoy:
Aherin  [author] Sep 4, 2018 @ 5:30am 
*Changed the font size on the xp bar and added "XP" at the end.
Aherin  [author] Aug 31, 2018 @ 6:04pm 
Thanks again to all those that have subscribed to this. If you could take a minute to give it a thumbs up I'd very much appreciate it. That way it won't get lost in the sea of mods. Thanks! :D
Aherin  [author] Aug 28, 2018 @ 7:57pm 
Any more feedback on the control scheme or menus? I'm close to finishing my updates to this mod unless something big comes up ;)
Aherin  [author] Aug 25, 2018 @ 3:41am 
*Darkened the button icons slightly so they fit in with the theme better. Also found a bug where the game would sometimes auto-resume for some reason.
Aherin  [author] Aug 21, 2018 @ 11:17pm 
*Fixed a display issue with the xp bar not extending all the way along the belt when full.
Aherin  [author] Aug 19, 2018 @ 3:33pm 
Don't forget to rate this up so more people see it! :) Thanks!
Aherin  [author] Aug 19, 2018 @ 5:48am 
*Slightly altered the charge bars and belt positions so they are consistent and not clipped.
Aherin  [author] Aug 15, 2018 @ 1:47am 
*Increased the size of the skill icons in the bind menu so that long cooldowns display properly.
Aherin  [author] Aug 11, 2018 @ 5:28am 
Ok made a separate magic waypoint portal scroll which is only sold in vendors with infinite uses.
Aherin  [author] Aug 10, 2018 @ 5:11pm 
I'll probably tweak it a bit more so that the waypoint scroll can only be found from vendors. I had to make it only stack to one for infinite uses to work. Right now it'll take up so much space if you accidently pick up more!
Aherin  [author] Aug 10, 2018 @ 5:19am 
*Update to fix townportal and potion of insight menu spam
So in order to fix the potion of insight menu (LT+>dpad) from being to fiddly I changed the button press on the controller profile. Copy the new link to update.

The portal scroll spam was harder to fix because the stick didn't do anything when I tried to change the type of button press.

SO from now on, Waypoint Portal scrolls are infinite :D Just need one from now on!
Aherin  [author] Aug 10, 2018 @ 1:28am 
Thanks man, I'll do my best to tweak it more when I can!
Mess The Moose Aug 9, 2018 @ 7:41pm 
Nice mod. I was originaly using "desktop configuration" to use my xbox one controller.
You're mod is much better and a lot easier.
Aherin  [author] Aug 8, 2018 @ 7:34pm 
*Noticed that sometimes town portals (and the potion of insight menu) trigger too many times which chews up your scrolls! Sorry about that. I'm working on a fix for this, but changing the button press type on the control setup hasn't worked. I'll maybe have to try and change how the scroll itself triggers to fix it. You might want to swap from skill to one of the main buttons for the time being off you're finding this annoying..
Aherin  [author] Aug 8, 2018 @ 4:42am 
No worries man :) I'm glad you sorted it out! It seems like this works with any controller that steam can recognise. Have fun :)
towMater Aug 8, 2018 @ 4:23am 
Ohhhh i figured out! My controller has 2 options PS4 mode and Xbox mode. I change it to xbox mode and worked :D sorry my bad :D
