Xbox buttons prompts explanation

- Fortunately the game is also accepting in-game actions what would be bound on Xbox controller buttons. Use this as a reference guide.
- Actions listed below can be bound to the same key.
| Xbox controller button | Action in-game |
|---|---|
| A | Interact or confirm. |
| B | Dash/backstep/roll or Cancel. |
| X | Use item or Menu function 1 |
| Y | Wield right weapon two-handed or Menu function 2 |

Notes
- ↑ 1.0 1.1 Notes regarding Steam Play (Linux) data:
- File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data.
- Use Wine's registry editor to access any Windows registry paths.
- The app ID (335300) may differ in some cases.
- Treat backslashes as forward slashes.
- See the glossary page for details on Windows data paths.
- ↑ If you're using ModEngine, you can rename
dinput8.dllof the fix and set thechainDInput8DLLPathparameter in themodengine.inito the new name. This way both ModEngine and Double Click fix will work at the same time.
