Gamepad UI with normal inventory.

Like in a title is there any option to have the main screen UI like in gamepad mode (i love the skillbar look) when in same time normal windows for rest of stuff (inventory, jurnal, etc...). Im playing with mouse and keyboard and when i change to gamepad mode i have nice main screen UI (except those pad button hints) buy when i going to inventory i want to cut myself coz it take ages to organize all stuff there with that UI.
Do any of you have idea how can i maintain normal inventory, guild window, jurnal, etc... , when using gamepad mode ? I would realy apriciate for help.
BTW. Sorry for my english but its not my native language and i wasnt using it for a while so it became a bit rusty :smile:

    There is no way to do what you’re asking for. Addons cannot modify the gamepad ui in that manner.

    I use gamepad mode on PC, and have mapped a keyboard shortcut for “ Toggle gamepad mode”. When I’m at a bank, guild store, or need to use Inventory Insight, quick toggle off gamepad mode, then toggle back on when finished.

    Yes, it’s annoying, but you get used to it.

    Thank you for answer. Damn so it is as i expected :neutral: but lets have hope maybe someday we would do petition to Zenimax/Microsoft to implement this feature (it shouldnt be to hard for them coz they already have all components). Meanwhile i will try your way.

    I have the "automatic" setting on which changes the UI based on you last input. So I interact with vendors and stations etc with keyboard and mouse and then all combat with the gamepad👍

    I actually quite like the gamepad inventory ui as is, save for the only thing that I personally feel is missing: keyword search. Something sorely missing in bank and character inventory for both modes.

    I use BetterUI, which changes the inventory to look more like keyboard mode. It’s not exactly the same, but much closer than the native gamepad UI inventory.

    I feel your pain. I play on console but was originally on PC. I even bought a macro keyboard for ESO.
    The skyrim-esque UI is god damns terrible. Thing is you can easily have a PC UI with a gamepad but it's only more recently devs are attempting to have hybrid UIs.
    Destiny and no man's sky for eg.
    ESO dropped way before devs trying to hybrid.
    Look on the bright side, at least it doesn't follow oblivions UI!

    I thought Automatic was based on last state at logout? This will do nothing for me when I stop at a guild store and need AGS not to crash the UI.

    It's great if you want to run your day based on how the UI is when you log in/out, but I'm fine with the toggle. Pressing "shift G" is far less work Imo.

    No it is based on your last input. Switch to automatic. Walk up to a merchant and press "e" on your keyboard and it will open keyboard and mouse UI, open it with "A" on your controller and it will open the gamepad UI.

    I simply cant play on gamepad :smiley: was trying that and for me its pain in ass (mostly becouse those 400cp done on keyboard) and thats why automatic will not work for me, becouse i simply dont use gamepad at all.

    Mouse and keyboard are for me BiS to play games since forever and that inventory ui doesnt support it properly.

    I had to use DarkUI to make it look better but still i wish to have that Gamepad Skillbar UI. And i cant realy say that original UI (skyrim like) sucks, becouse i seen worse than that and they didnt even supported any addons or mods. But right now i think best UI have GW2 from current most popular MMO's i wish to someone make something simmilar in ESO.

    Ah that's good to know. Still don't think it will work as I use both UIs at bankers (E for guild store, A for guild bank). and I'm so used to just toggling the UI after... 4 years xD.

    It works but not in the way i want :disappointed: coz it turn off the Skillbar UI too and i want to keep it, advanced disable controller was working almost fine except i couldnt double tap roll dodge anymore what is vital part of game.
