Titanfall 2: controller layout for Mac
Titanfall 2 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: Controller mapped to the PC keyboard and mouse defaults.
Get the preset in two clicks
- Open InputConfig and click Smart Preset Maker on the welcome screen.
- Search for Titanfall 2 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 preset can open the game for you when it activates: it launches steam://run/1237970 on activate, and confines and hides the pointer while it runs, so a stray mouse never leaves the window.
The full button map

|---|---|---|
| Left stick up | W | Move forward (W) |
| Left stick down | S | Move back (S) |
| Left stick left | A | Move left (A) |

| Right trigger | Left click | Fire (Left Click) |

| A / Cross | Space | Jump / double-jump (Space) |
| B / Circle | Ctrl (Left) | Crouch / slide (Ctrl) |
| L3 (left stick click) | Shift (Left) | Sprint (Shift) |
| Y / Triangle | F | Melee (F) |
| RB / R1 | Q | Ordnance / grenade (Q) |
| LB / L1 | Scroll down | Tactical ability (mouse wheel) |

| D-pad down | C | Activate boost (C) |
| Back / Share / Select | Tab | Scoreboard (Tab) |

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
- Tap A twice for the double jump that defines pilot movement.
- Click the left stick to sprint, then hold Ctrl to slide out of it.
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.
