One annoying thing about playing SHAR on PC is that the buttons are always still labelled as 'Enter' and 'ESC', etc. This mod remedies that! It adds controller icons for PS2, Xbox and Gamecube, as well as custom-made icons for the Xbox 360 and Wii U/Switch.

Important Notes:

  • This is designed to work only with the default gamepad bindings used by SHAR.
  • The 'Press Action' icon doesn't animate. I believe the animation is hardcoded to only work on the 'Press Action' text itself, so I don't think there's anything I can do about this.
  • The 'Swap A and B buttons in menus' option is purely visual. You will need to edit the gamepad bindings in the 'Rebindable Menu Gamepad Inputs' hack.
  • Same goes for the 'Make Triangle the 'Back' button' option.
  • The 'Show Stats' button in the purchase car screen doesn't actually respond to the X button (or X button equivalent) as it is hardcoded to only work with the F1 key. I thought randomly having the F1 key appear in amongst all of the controller buttons would look a bit weird, so I just replaced the icon anyway.
