Console Controls for Steam Deck players (Radial Menu)
By Aximlli
For anyone that is coming from Xbox or wants to play on the Steam Deck, these controls should help. I was struggling with playing on it, and none of the community controller layouts were really working well for me, so I build a new one from scratch.

I used the Xbox radial menu as inspiration and tried to make it easier to use as a console player.

Install the Controller Layout
  1. Go to Dragon Age Origins on your Steam Deck.
  2. Click the Controller icon on the right side of the page.
  3. Click on your "Current Button Layout".
  4. Using the R1/L1 bumpers, go to "Community Layouts".
  5. Find the controller layout called "Console Players on Steam Deck (Radial Menu)".
  6. Click the X button to download the layout.
  7. Click the A button to view the layout, and then click X to apply it.
  8. Now launch the game with the new layout.

Note: If you can't find the controller layout in the Community Layouts in Step 5, then launch your Steam Deck in Desktop mode and use the link above in a browser. It should redirect you and load in the Steam client. You will be able to download it from there.

Being that my game is not the Steam version (and not the Ultimate Edition version) it took me some workaround to use your layout. After renaming the non-Steam shortcut, I managed to find your layout and I'm liking it so far! Keep up the good work!

This has worked great for me on deck so far, took a bit of getting used to but it is a godsend thanks!
