Este mod es increíble, más rápido que escribir en el chat si se aprenden las combinaciones.
Gracias

It took a lot of trial and error, but I found out that by enabling Steam Input, you can set a joystick to behave as the mouse with the Joystick Mouse option. The downside is that you can't map controller buttons while using Steam Input. So you have to set the Smart Vocalizer to a keyboard key, and then set the button you want on the controller to that keyboard key in Steam Input. However, it will forget your mappings every time you restart the game. In order for it to remember, you have to keep the gamepad enabled in the settings menu, and then manually add the keyboard key binds to the 360 controller config. Only then will it load back up your key bindings, and only while a controller is connected.

Also, one other complication for me personally is that I play with inverted Y-axis for camera, and that unfortunately continues to be inverted for the wheel menus. I guess it's the best I'm going to get. Really it's way more complicated than it should be.

I’m afraid I don’t have any experience with controllers nor do I have control over how menu wheels work. This mod just adds onto the framework that comes with the pre-existing vocalizer wheels made by valve, so I’d look for a mod that specifically changes that.

Is there a way to make this work with a controller? It would be very convenient. Right now I have it set so that R3 brings up the wheel menu, but it doesn't stay up unless I hold the button down. I also can't select anything in the menu with the right analog stick, I have to use the mouse.

What would work great is a controller mode where the menu is toggled on instead of held and you point the stick in the direction of the selections you want to make. If there is already options for this, I haven't found them.

I use "C" as my keybind because its right next to my thumb, I find that works the best for me

Random question of mine, which keybind is recommend for the Vocalizer?

If the bots use "Lead the Way" (L4D1 a like) you can use few Custom Maps

I’m not in charge of the original mod, I don’t know what you expect me to do
