-----Lefty--------

by Psycocore



I'm not very experienced at this,but I managed to experiment and found a way
to get the controls in my game to work for me left handed.
This is a lifesaver for me so I thought I'd share it with
those who play left handed as well.
With one easy click :)


---IMPORTANT!------------------------------

When using this file if you try to bind Forward or Backward Keys to different ones
the secondary Forward/Backward key disappears and will not come back until you set back
to default.
I don't know why this happens,but Skyrim behaves like it just doesn't like
you adding secondary keys doing the same function for movement.

So if you want to retain this effect then edit the Forward/backwards keys
on the mouse or Numpad only in the controlmap.txt file.

The other buttons seem fine to remap ingame.


--Description---
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Not a mod really,but I can't play without it.
This is just a little controlmap file for Skyrim.
Much like the others.
This one however addresses the problem the controls and menu have
with left handed players.

I prefer the number pad and the mouse keys assigned to manuevering the character.
A big issue seems to be that if you assigned mousekeys to run foward or backwards
the right and left equip menu is broken/missing.

This method allows the mouse to be assigned to move the player without effecting
the mouse function in the menu.

I also assigned the forward/backwards movement to function on the numpad as well.
This might be taking advantage of a glitch,but I wouldn't know for sure.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


----Installation---------

1. If you have Nexus Mod Manager you can download directly through it and install
automatically.
If you don't have Nexus Mod Manager,or prefer to install manually
you can download the zip file,open it and go through all the folders
until you see "controlmap.txt".

2. Extract "controlmap.txt" inside "<your game folder>\Data\Interface\controls\pc"
If the folders don't exist create them.

3. Start Skyrim and when you are playing your character go to the menu as if you're going to
remap your keybindings through the controls menu.

4. Once you're in the controls menu set your keys to default automatically by pressing "T" or whatever button you had
it bound to in your previous games.


You are all set.

Enjoy left-handed gaming :)

--Layout--------------

The changes to the control layout this file creates you can see in the diagram Mormacil made.


All the rest of the buttons not shown are "Vanilla" default.

If you need to make changes to the file and don't know the keyboard scans here is a link
to a keyboard scancode table.

Link: http://www.shsu.edu/~csc_tjm/spring2005/cs272/scan_codes.html

I would suggest using a text program called "Notepad++" which is free.

http://notepad-plus-plus.org/download/v5.9.8.html

It will allow you to view codes in their proper lines whereas regular notepad would show it scrambled around.
Also,when I started messing with the file it already has included at top an explanation
pertaining to the lines and what they do.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

I tried to make it do all it can with the numpad for ease of use(ergonomics in mind),and I didn't bother
messing with the Favorites/or Ready Weapon because of that reason.

Feel free to use this for a mod if you like.You don't need my permission or anything this is just a small tweek.
If you make something cool with this awesome!
I'd love to hear about it,and hope someday
we can all play a better bugfree Skyrim :)
