Button Tag Replacement

From the CreationKit Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

There is a system in place to auto-magically replace a tagged user event name with the button art to which it's mapped.

Press [Jump] to jump. Look around using [360_RS] and move using [Move].

If you're lost, press [Pause] and open up the intuitive and great-looking Help menu!

Tag replacement is done by enclosing a user event name in square brackets [ ].

NOTE: Because of the expense of doing this kind of text replacement, it's only enabled in the Help menus.


Tag Names[edit | edit source]

The following are the valid user event tags. Next to each tag, in parentheses, are the default controls that trigger the user event. If a default control is not noted for a platform, then it does not exist on that platform. E.g. "Forward" doesn't exist on the 360; it is a keyboard-only user event. Also, controls on the 360 are identical to controls on a 360 controller plugged into the PC.

Button Names[edit | edit source]

It's also possible to specify a particular button to show up. Just keep in mind that if you specify a button directly, they'll show up as specified on all platforms. E.g. if you have "[360_Y]" in your text, it show up as (Y) on both PC and PS3, as well.
