Gamepad Layout by @wavebeem
The concept behind this layout is the left side of a computer keyboard, optimized with essential keys for playing FPS games. It was designed for TheVan RoadKit, but it should work for any 4x4 ortholinear keyboard.
I play with my pinky on Shift
, thumb on Space
, and the rest of my fingers on
W A S D
. I use my thumb for Control
, X
, and sometimes C
. I usually use
Z
with my ring finger. It also helps to angle my fingers more perpendicular to
the board in order to allow my thumb to more easily access the Z X C
row.
The number keys 1 2 3
are missing for weapon switching, but you can usually
switch with the mouse wheel or rebind those to Z X C
or something else.
The key R
for reloading is missing, but I prefer to use my extra mouse buttons
for that.
I don't really use Alt
for games, but I kept it around for Alt-Tab
in
Windows.
