Please watch the video as it exhaustively covers everything in this profile. I know there are other Arma 3 profiles but I had been getting requests to make one so hopefully this helps some folks out. Also, in the video I go over a lot of Xpadder tips and techniques for some of the more advanced assignments.

Do i have to change anything in Helicopter Movement settings in Controls in A3 configure or leave it at default?

This was all based off the default controls in Arma 3. I didn't change anything. The ONLY thing I changed in Arma 3 was the "Salute" button because for some reason the "/" wasn't working for me so I gave it a second assignment.

Is there a way to include walking, jogging, and sprinting?

All the way forward on the stick will be sprint. Left stick click would lower your weapon for a slower walk. It should all be in there unless I'm unaware of some keybindings that aren't part of the default Arma 3 set in the game configuration.


Edit: I see what you mean with walk. Tapping S while Walk toggles in a slow walk... hmm.. that will be tricky. I'll play around and see what I can do. Is there a faster sprint than W+Shift?

More Edits: I updated the profile code. Added WS toggle to mid hold on LEFT STICK (See edit notes on top post). Not sure I like it there... I'd prefer to bind it to the stick but it's difficult to get it in there because it requires a tap of WS, not a hold (really hard to get stick bindings to work that way).

The update with the walk feature works good IMO.

One thing I did notice is that holding the modifier button (LB) and pushing up or down on the Right analogue makes the character crouch or prone. Something the R3 button does well with already. Its the same actions twice looks like. Gets in the way while trying to lean and aim at the same time. Causing my character to go crouch/prone when I really don't need it to.

Some people might be okay with it, so is there a way for me to change that function of the modifier button in the code myself?

The modifier button (LB) is actually not bound to any key assignment. It takes the profile to the "Actions" set in the layout. In the "Actions" set I changed to right stick so beyond 90% up or down will be x or z for diving. So, it's not really the same functionality, I specifically put it on the stick and it's only beyond 90%. If you take it out you will not be able to dive and surface while under water due to how I bound X and Z on the RS click in the default layout. But yeah, to take it out go to Actions set in xpadder, click on "Up-->Surface", click on "Advanced", delete so only up arrow is bound.

Sorry for the late reply but yes, it should work with an Xbox One controller as long as you map it into Xpadder. I just put up a video guide recently on how to map a controller.
