Original xbox controls

This is the original xbox controller layout from the manual:

This is the same layout but with xbox 360 controls (from gamefront: http://www.gamefront.com/manuals-controller-layouts-and-free-dlc-for-xbox-originals/)

This layout appears to be what is used in the steam pc game.

Until there are GUI changes to psychonauts that display the xbox360 controls when using this game on steam this guide may be useful.

@Rosito - go into big picture mode. Make sure Microsoft 360 is selected in controller settings. Most controller issues are resolved unfortunately by using big picture.

@alkazar Unsure sorry, I put this up in 2013.

I thought they fixed that problem and got the xbox button prompts working

Regarding my previous post
Turns out JoyRotY and JoyRotZ (which are the triggers) don't work for anything but the Look Up/Down settings. Oh well.

I changed the following bindings to these settings. This should match the image of the Xbox 360 controller provided above. (Trigger settings not tested yet since I've not progressed far enough into the game at this point to have the ability to use PSI powers.)

MoveForward_Alt=Up
MoveBackward_Alt=Down
MoveLeft_Alt=Left
MoveRight_Alt=Right
Jump_Alt=Joy12
Attack_Alt=Joy14
Use_Alt=Joy15
Cancel_Alt=Joy13
LockOn/Float_Alt=JoyRotY
PsiPower1_Alt=JoyRotZ
PsiPower2_Alt=Joy9
PsiPower3_Alt=Joy10
InventoryMenu_Alt=Joy3
PsiPowersMenu_Alt=Joy4
FirstPerson_Alt=Joy1
Journal_Alt=Joy5
Stats_Alt=Joy6
LookUp_Alt=JoyRotX
LookDown_Alt=JoyRotX
LookLeft_Alt=JoyZ
LookRight_Alt=JoyZ

I'm not sure if the Mac version was ever updated, but the controller binding on Mac when I started up the game for the first time just now was unplayable. I played around with the control settings in game to figure out which button numbers corresponded to which buttons, then I manually edited the profile .ini file at
~/Library/Application Support/Psychonauts/Profiles/Profile #/Profile #- Raz.ini

@Яeиzu: No clue sorry, did you change any keybindings in keyboard/mouse mode before using a controller?

RNZV 8 Jan, 2016 @ 2:25pm

idk what's going on, but my buttons are reversed... A is B, X is Y and vice versa. Any solutions?

RincewindTVD [author] 7 Aug, 2015 @ 3:25pm

Not mine, what are your camera settings at in options? Is there a X axis swap option?
