1. CONNECT THE CONTROLLER
  Xbox: USB-C cable, the Xbox Wireless Adapter, or Bluetooth. Windows sees it as an Xbox controller,
        which is what Star Citizen wants. Update its firmware with the Xbox Accessories app.
  PS5:  USB-C cable or Bluetooth (controller off, hold Create + PS about 3 seconds, then pair it in
        Windows Settings > Bluetooth & devices). Star Citizen reads Xbox style (XInput) controllers,
        so turn on PlayStation controller support in Steam Input with Star Citizen added to Steam as a
        non-Steam game, or run DS4Windows.

2. COPY THE PROFILE INTO THE GAME
  Put layout_AbsoluteGaming_Gamepad.xml in:
  Roberts Space Industries\StarCitizen\LIVE\user\client\0\controls\mappings

3. LOAD IT
  In game, open the console with ~ and run (no .xml on the end):
  pp_rebindkeys layout_AbsoluteGaming_Gamepad
  Or: Options > Keybindings > Advanced Controls Customization > Control Profiles.

HOW THE LAYOUT WORKS
  Hold LB (L1 on PS5) for a second set of buttons. That is how Star Citizen's own gamepad layout works.
  Flight and on foot use different layouts; the game switches for you.
  The sticks keep Star Citizen's defaults: left stick throttle and yaw in a ship (move on foot),
  right stick pitch and roll (look on foot), LB + left stick strafes.

MAKE YOUR OWN
  Fill in a layout form (Bindings or BlankForm) in Acrobat Reader, Chrome, Edge or Preview, save it,
  and drop it on absolutegaming.store/starcitizen5.html. The page builds your profile in your browser.
  Your PDF is never uploaded.
