Better Keybinds

🎮 **What does this mod do? **

The goal of this mod is to fix some of the weird preset keybindings in the game.

Frankly, it's not a lot of work and you can easily do it yourself, but I wanted to share my setup for those of you who appreciate the convenience of "plug and play."

The keybindings for dodge and flight, in particular, feel extremely inconvenient to me, so I hope the new settings will help you enjoy these gameplay moments more.

**NOTE:** Flight controls are set to reverse. Meaning the W key goes down and the S key goes up, just like you would control an airplane.

📥 Installation Guide

  • Go to the directory: `...\AppData\Local\Hogwarts Legacy\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor`
  • **Backup** your `Input.ini` file!
  • Place the files in the compressed package into the above directory and agree to replace them.

💡 **Tips**: After installation, it is recommended to enter the game and get used to it. Soon you will find that the operation becomes more smooth and intuitive!

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
  3. Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.

Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
