Add hotkeys using modifier buttons
control
Add 6 hotkeys using the grab button as a modifier (similar to using Shift in an MMO)
Left hand:
Grab+Y
Grab+X
Grab + trigger
grab + stick click
Right hand:
Grab + trigger
grab + stick click
B and A cannot be used as they need to control the favorites menu.
The rest of the controls can be seen in the linked reddit post. I use this layout because the grab button is the most convenient.
Modifiers and since sprint and activate are the best commands to use as modifiers.
how it works
Skyrim's default engine actually allows modifier keys, although Bethesda doesn't seem to be using them for anything. However, they are allocated in the Controls text file located in SkyrimVR\Data\Interface\Controls\PC. Here, buttons are given codes and arranged in different columns. What we are interested in are the two Oculus columns. For some reason, the left column represents the right-hand controller and the right column represents the left-hand controller.
Here is the code for the button:
Trigger: 0x21
Stick click: 0x20
Y/B：0x01
X/A：0x07
Grab: 0x02
All unallocated operations are 0xff.
In order to add modifiers, just use the + sign. For example, to generate grab+Y hotkey 1 first, you have to find the row for hotkey 1. Go to the right column of the Oculus section since it's left-handed. Replace 0xff with 0x02+0x01. If you plan on doing your own editing, I highly recommend something like Notepad+. Normal Notepad doesn't align all columns.
This file can be installed using a mod manager.
vitality:
This should work on the Vive, but I've never used it and can't test it. Here is the button code if anyone wants to give it a try.
Trigger: 0x21
Grab: 0x02
Thumb button: 0x01
Collage: 0x04
Landing time: 0x06
*Pad-Internal: 0x03
*Pad-Cover: 0x05
Click: 0x20
*Controls are mirrored for each hand, so labeling them left/right doesn't help. Here, inner means the side facing your body and outer means the side facing away from your body.
Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- 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.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- 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.
