MrPorridge's Notes

Played through the opening boat mission a few times and built up this controller scheme every time I needed a button that hadn't been mapped yet. So I think this covers most if not all the needed actions.

Left trigger + Right trigger is your 'focus' ability, while left trigger hold allows chorded presses on the dpad for additional, less frequent actions.

Took a while to find a layout that works well because some actions the game requires a button to be held meaning I had to only bind one action to that button on the controller.

How to Use this Config

Using JoyShockMapper configurations is easy once you know how. If you haven't used it before, check out the guide. For using a community config like this one, you only need to get through the first two sections — Installing JSM and Using an already-made configuration file.

Just copy the above configuration into a text file, change the IN_GAME_SENS to match your in-game settings, and then drag that file into JoyShockMapper and hit Enter to use it right away. Some games have their own limitations with certain controllers or require some extra setup, so make sure to check for any notes near top of the main Hitman 2 (2018) page.
