# Guild Wars 2 Steam controller configuration



An advanced Guild Wars 2 controller configuration.\

Separate custom binds for menus and in-game.\

Assumes default Guild Wars 2 keybinds and uses the Guild Wars 2 action camera.



Works with Xbox 360/One/X and PS3/4/5 controllers.



## How to use



[Video Instructions](https://youtu.be/UKnAx0o_jqE)



* Start Steam [Big Picture](https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/3725-76D3-3F31-FB63#how)

* Start [Guild Wars 2](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1284210)

* Copy this link into your webbrowser - `steam://controllerconfig/1284210/2859128070`

* Switch back to [Guild Wars 2](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1284210) and accept the new controller layout

* Bind your "[Action Camera](https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Action_Camera_Mode#/media/File:Action_Camera_Mode_options_menu.jpg)" button in Guild Wars 2 controller options

* Press your "[Action Camera](https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Action_Camera_Mode#/media/File:Action_Camera_Mode_options_menu.jpg)" button



You're now ready to play the game.\

Next time you start the game; just press the "[Action Camera](https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Action_Camera_Mode)" button and play.



## Issues



* Unable to swap weapons

  * The default button for swapping weapons in Guild Wars 2 is different depending on your keyboard layout.\

  Just enter controller options in Guild Wars 2, double click the "Swap Weapon" bind and press the D-Pad Left/Right or Up/Down depending on what you prefer.



* Unable to move in-game, mouse cursor only moves

  * You must enter the "[Action Camera](https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Action_Camera_Mode)" mode.\

  This hides and locks the mouse cursor to the camera.\

 The "[Action Camera](https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Action_Camera_Mode)" button has no bind by default, so you must bind this yourself and then press it once to enter "[Action Camera](https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Action_Camera_Mode)" mode.



* Some buttons are incorrect

  * The default Guild Wars 2 button binds are assumed.\

  Reset your binds in your Guild Wars 2 controller options menu.
