Switch the parry and counterattack buttons on the PC external controller

It's too hard to parry and counter with the left trigger (LT). I started pressing as soon as I noticed the enemy attack, but by the time it was completely suppressed, it was too late. This is a small modification that switches the parry/counter button (left trigger) with the quick access menu button (left shoulder) for a more responsive parry/counter experience. This allows you to time your parries and counterattacks more efficiently.

notes:

  • This doesn't change the left trigger and left shoulder because of other things in the game.
  • The controller scheme under options will still read the default controls.

three. This is the Xbox Game Pad for the PC version of the game.

Install:

  • Save input files to…documents/my documents/the switcher 3
  • Replace original file

If you want to use this change with other gameboard remappings, make the changes yourself:

  • Open...Documents/My Documents/The Witcher 3 input.settings and control+f to find "combat" then scroll down until you see:

IK_Pad_LeftTrigger=(Action=Alternate)

IK_Pad_LeftTrigger=(Action=LockAndGuard)

  • change it to:

IK_Pad_LeftShoulder=(Action=Alternate)

IK_Pad_LeftShoulder=(Action=LockAndGuard)

  • Then scroll down until you see:

IK_Pad_LeftShoulder=(Action=RadialMenu)

  • change it to:

IK_Pad_LeftTrigger=(Action=RadialMenu)

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.
