EA Sports FC 24: controller layout for Mac
EA Sports FC 24 does not need a controller-aware version of itself to be played from a controller on a Mac. InputConfig sends real keyboard and mouse events, so the game sees a keyboard and a mouse, and you hold the controller. This is the layout the app's Smart Preset Maker builds for it: Football, default mouse-move scheme.
Get the preset in two clicks
- Open InputConfig and click Smart Preset Maker on the welcome screen.
- Search for EA Sports FC 24 and pick it. The layout below is created as a preset in your sidebar, named and ready.
- Press Activate. Every row can be changed afterwards: the editor's Scan button rebinds any control the moment you touch it.
The full button map
| Controller | Sends | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Left stick right | Mouse motion right (speed 20) | Left stick X moves player right (FC 24 uses mouse to move) |
| Left stick left | Mouse motion left (speed 20) | Left stick X moves player left |
| Left stick down | Mouse motion down (speed 20) | Left stick Y moves player down |
| Left stick up | Mouse motion up (speed 20) | Left stick Y moves player up |
| Right trigger | Mouse motion right (speed 28) | RT = sprint (faster cursor away from player) |
| A / Cross | Right click | Cross = short pass / header (Right Click) |
| X / Square | A | Square = through ball (A) |
| B / Circle | S | Circle = lob pass / cross (S) |
| Y / Triangle | Left click | Triangle = shoot / volley (Left Click) |
| Left trigger | D | LT = finesse modifier (D) |
| RB / R1 | Shift (Left) | R1 = player run / switch modifier (Left Shift) |
| LB / L1 | Middle click | L1 = skill move modifier (Middle Mouse + move) |
| Back / Share / Select | Shift (Left) | Back = change player on defense (Left Shift) |
| Start / Options | Escape | Start = pause (Esc) |
Button names follow the Xbox / PlayStation pair shown in the editor, so A / Cross is the bottom face button on either pad. On a Switch Pro Controller the bottom button is labelled B; the mapping still fires on position.
Tips
- FC 24's keyboard+mouse default moves the player with the MOUSE, so this preset drives the cursor from the left stick.
- On defense the same keys do double duty: Right Click contains, Left Click tackles, Square slide-tackles, A rushes the keeper (hold).
- Mouse move speed is set around 20; raise or lower it in InputConfig to match your dribbling feel.
Make it yours
Nothing here is fixed. Rows can be re-scanned to a different control, given hold and double-tap actions, chords, turbo, macros, haptic or spoken feedback, and per-binding deadzones and sensitivity curves. The binding editor guide covers every option, and the controller map shows what each control is called.
