This zip file includes the Playstation 4 Dualshock 4 controller configuration to play Battlefront II on the PC with a controller. It also includes a setup guide and layout images for the controller scheme.
Hello! I have decided to take the time to create and upload player profiles for Battlefront II that include controller support for the Xbox 360 and PS4 controllers. These are the files for the PS4 config.
Assuming you install correctly, you should be able to simply drop the profile file in your SaveGames folder, plug in your controller, start the game, and play!
In this pack, you will find:
- Two brand new profiles for Battlefront II, and each profile has been configured to support a wired Playstation 4 Dualshock 4 controller for gameplay.
- Controller scheme pictures for guides to button controls.
- A detailed Read Me guide.
I recommend everyone interested in using this to please read the included Read Me guide, as it includes many important details and steps on how to install correctly. For those experienced with BFII, perhaps the most important aspect to mention from that guide is to adjust your screen resolution to the resolution of your monitor after you install the profile. Additionally, if you want to adjust the joystick sensitivity, just head on over to the control settings within the profile, in the menu of the game, to adjust that accordingly.
Having said that, I'm excited to share this with you all, as I know it has been often requested over at the Steam forums, and hopefully for many players this will bring back some of the fun we have had playing this game on the console. I myself have played many mods over the years using a controller on PC and it's great fun.
Here are the controller layouts I have created for the PS4 profile. It should be noted that this is based on an amalgamation of the PS2 and Xbox schemes.
Simply install the profile, and have fun!
Hello! Thank you so much for providing this mod. I'm having trouble with the controls; let me describe what happens to you: I'll start up the game, go into a battle, and the only thing I'll be able to do is move forward and backwards. The "rotate character" controls are restricted to L2 and R2. None of the other buttons do anything. Please advise! I really, really want to play this game. Thanks friend!
You are welcome -- as for the problems you are experiencing, it sounds the PS4 profile is not in the correct folder, or if it is, it has not been selected at the start of the BFII session. Make sure the PS4 controller profile file is in the Star Wars Battlefront II\GameData\SaveGames folder directory. Then, when you start the game, select the PS4 controller profile as the user profile at the beginning menu. Should work then!
Thank you so much for the timely response. I'm afraid it's still doing what I described? I tried reinstalling the game, and that didn't fix the issue. I tried deleting my old save files and re-importing the files from the download and still no change. Is there a different fix you could recommend?
I'm not sure what could be causing the issue, except perhaps if the controller in question is not a Sony PS4 controller. Other than that, I can recommend simply following the instructions as closely as you can and reinstalling the controller profiles. Wish you the best with this!
I'm having the same problem as him as well even after uninstalling and reinstalling twice. I'm using a sony PS4 controller, and have put the PS4 profile into the correct folder.
also been having the same problem, any help? and im fact using a PS4 controller
Same issue.
xezene is there a way to rename the profile so I can change the name that is showing up? I like to play a lot of Instant Action and I want to use the name I typically use in single player games.
Hey there -- unfortunately, that is not possible with this profile. However, you could create a new profile with a custom name and manually program in the controls according to the control layout images provided in this .zip file and that would accomplish what you are wanting.
Thank you. I may do a remap using the layout images you provided one day. For now, I'm fine just using what you provided and enjoying my time with a game that I haven't played in ages. Thanks for providing this!
did it work with the layout images provided?
