Overlay:

Just a controller mapping which is full customizeable by yourself (PS4)

How it looks like by my own configuration:

Left analog stick: move (wasd)
left analog stick press: Autorun (R)
Right analog stick: avatar camera rotation / in cursor mode: (LB) free camera rotation (hold RT/LT + right analogstick)
Right analog stick press: change mode to vehicle mode (just for flying vehicles, you can use standard mode for cars)

directional pad: short cuts for items (2,3,4,5)
buttons:
triangle: interact (f)
square: short cuts for items on circumflex (^) and 1 ( press button will be circumflex, hold the button for a short period for 1, at default there are my heal tools)
cross: Jump (space)
circle: Use tool (E)

Right button:
press = Switch target (it is F10 by my default settings, just change it)
hold the button and use the right stick to trigger a ring menu which includes the following setups by my standard settings (= ; 0 ; - ; P ; K ; J ; I ; M ; show steam overlay keyboard; T)

Left button:
press = ALT, switch cursor mode
hold the button and use the left stick to trigger a ring menu which includes the following setups by my standard settings (circumflex (^) ; 1 ; 2 ; 3 ; 4 ; 5 ; NUMPAD * ; NUMPAD /)

Right trigger: right mouse button
Left Trigger: left mouse button

Touchpad right side: sensitive mouse move
Toucpad left side: mouse wheel

options button: Escape (menu)
share button: short cut for map

In vehicle mode:


left analog stick: wasd
right analog stick: joystick mouse
right analog stick: press to switch back to standard mode
LB: control (down)
RT: c (right side move)
LT: z (left side move)
RB: space (up)

How it looks like ingame (i added icons manually, you have to do this too)







How to integrate entropia to steam:

You have to choose the clientloader (launcher)

left bottom corner - add game






How to configure controller support:

In BigPicture mode go into entropia menu and press manage shortcut



open controler options
activate desktopconfiguration and overlay


go to controler configuration
choose search for controller configuration



go to community and choose "entropia universe ps4 F"




If you are not able to find the configuration i have it uploaded here:
https://www.daten-hoster.de/file/details/843171/controller_configuration.rar

copy it to your entropia app, which you can find here
\Steam\userdata\xxxxx\config\controller_configs\apps\xxxxx


How to start entropia with steamoverlay:

Open steam
Open bigpicture mode (top right)
library and search for entropia, press play and the launcher will be start
press play in launcher, a message will appear that controler configuration is loaded






How to change key settings:

Open steam overlay and go to controler configuration.

You can change keys to what you want, you can add items to the radial menu, there is no limitation, do what ever you want and what ever you need.












How can i choose icons for my menu:

Open controler configuration in big picture mode, go to the radial menu



open it and have a look to the menu, for example click on Vivi (circumflex)


Have a look to the right side


Choose the icon you want



How can i add icons from entropia like u have it?

That is a bit more complicated, but here we go

You can find the steam icons in the following folder
Steam\tenfoot\resource\images\library\controller\binding_icons


icons are 256x256px and transparent, png format


to create temporary icons you have to create a ingame item icon from what you want
You can find these icons in
C:\ProgramData\entropia universe\public_users_data\cache\icon\xxxxxxxx


The format inside is .tga , so you need a image editor which can handle this format, i use freeware GIMP for that

If you open it in gimp it looks like this



You can now scale it up to 256px and save it to the steam icon folder as .png.


With steamlink or chromecast you can stream it to your 70" TV and play like a couchpotato

Have fun
