Broom and Mount Controls Remapping

🎮 **Brings a more intuitive flying and riding experience to "Hogwarts Legacy"! **

Tired of the game's default broom and mount controls? This module completely rewrites the control mapping file, providing a more natural and smoother operation method for both mouse and controller players!

✨ Module function

**Mouse control optimization:**

  • Use the mouse to directly control the **left and right, up and down** movement of the broom/mount.
  • An **up and down reversal** version is also provided to meet the operating habits of different players!

**Handle control optimization:**

  • **Left Joystick**: Control the **left, right, up and down** movement of the broom/mount.
  • **Right Joystick**: Control the **camera left and right** rotation.
  • **A key**: Control the character **slowly move away from the camera**. While held, allows for finer steering while flying (RT) or accelerating (LT).
  • **X key**: Control the character **move towards the camera**. Hold for a tighter turning radius.
  • **Y Key**: **Enter Airplane Mode** with your mount.

📥 Installation Guide

  • **Find the game installation directory** (in Steam: right-click the game > Manage > Browse local files).
  • Go to the `Phoenix/Content/Paks` folder.
  • Create a folder named `~mods` (the name is not important, just for ease of management).
  • Unzip the downloaded module compressed package into this folder (the unzipped file extension should be `.pak`).
**IMPORTANT NOTE:** If you have modified the in-game keybindings before installing this mod, you may need to reset all keys **to default** first. After the installation is complete, you can reset it according to your preferences.

❓ FAQ

**Q: How to invert control? **

A: For the mouse, please download the "reversed" version of the mod. For controllers, go to Game Settings: `Gameplay Options` > `Invert Flight Controls`.

**Q: Can the camera move up and down while flying? **

A: Unfortunately, this is not possible via remapping, as this action simply does not exist in the game.

**Q: My mount cannot move forward with the left joystick on the ground. **

A: The forward function has been remapped to the **A key**. There is currently no way to differentiate between controls for flight and ground movement.

I hope this mod will make your time in the skies and fields of Hogwarts more enjoyable! 🪄✨

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.
