OVERVIEW

GAMEPACK ACTIVATION

Select the appropriate GAMEPACK MODE SLOT. HOLD the top LEFT SELECT/PADDLE Button to navigate using EITHER PADDLE to CYCLE through the 8 GAMEPACK MODE SLOTS, represented by LEDs 1-8. You will know that you are in GAMEPACK MODE as identified by the GEAR HEAD EYES FLASHING back and forth. Your device will display the current GAMEPACK SLOT LED.

MASTER CONTROLS

MOD TOGGLE is helpful for quickly suspending the majority of mods at will, especially if mods designed for a specific action are interfering with other in game actions, or the in game menu, hub world or your console's store. This control does NOT affect your paddle mods.

While Aiming Down Sights (default LEFT TRIGGER), PRESS in the TOUCHPAD/VIEW Button to SUSPEND/RESUME All Mods, except Paddle Mods. We are aware this is the map button; if you need to access the map, simply stop Aiming Down Sights.

MASTER QUICK CONTROL is helpful if mods designed for a specific action are interfering with another in game action or menu. This is similar to Mod Toggle, but it affects all mods including your paddle mods.

HOLD the TOUCHPAD/VIEW & CROSS/A Buttons together for 1 second to SUSPEND/RESUME All Mods.

ACTIVATION

SETUP

GAMEPACK SETUP

This pack initially comes configured for Ranger Javelin and DEFAULT controls, with all in game settings reset to default (with the exception of changing the in game Sprint Mode to HOLD; required if you wish to enable Auto Run).

Additionally, the Javelin Controls and Enhanced Controls mods BOTH REQUIRE the default OFF setting for the in game Alternate Button Configuration.

To otherwise configure this pack for YOUR in game controls, current Javelin, and settings, MATCH the required settings in the Mod Central config to your current in game settings. All required Mod Central settings are marked Match In Game and they are essential to the mods functioning correctly.

If you wish to play with Flipped Bumper/Trigger Swap or One Handed (accessibility), select this in Mod Central, but do NOT try to remap anywhere else on your console. Because this game does NOT have built in support, there are caveats to using this mod: ADS Anti-Recoil's Quick Edit feature will NOT be available, and selecting Anti-Recoil profiles, or toggling some Quick Controls, will briefly interrupt aiming down sights and firing.

WARNING: Custom remapping beyond what is supported or otherwise altering your controls through ways outside of the in game settings is UNSUPPORTED and will cause mods to NOT function as intended, or at all.

Hair Triggers can be set to Enabled in Mod Central. With this mod, triggers will always be treated as if they have been fully pressed down the moment they are registered as being pressed. This can save precious milliseconds of reaction time, without affecting any mods.

MENU MODE NAVIGATION

We HIGHLY RECOMMEND setting up all mods in the Mod Central config, but advanced users are welcome to access the Class Mods from the GamePack Menu Mode:

WEAPON FIRE

CLASS 1 – WEAPON FIRE

When Rapid Fire is ON, HOLD down the Fire Button to fire semi-automatic weapons at maximum speed.

You may notice a loss of maximum fire rate with fully automatic weapons.

Weapon Fire Quick Shortcuts: While HOLDING the DOWN D-Pad,

Rapid Fire: TAP the RIGHT TRIGGER (ON: Heavy Rumble / OFF: Light Rumble).

Mod Toggle Quick Control: While Aiming Down Sights (default LEFT TRIGGER),

All Mods (except paddle mods): PRESS in the TOUCHPAD/VIEW Button.
- SUSPENDED: Heavy Rumble / RESUMED: Light Rumble.
- Examples when you may wish to SUSPEND mods: in game menu or hub world, especially with Advanced Controls.

Weapon Fire Activation: Weapon Fire mods while highly effective, are not practical in all scenarios. This Mod Central setting fully utilizes the RIGHT TRIGGER to provide you with more control over when your mod will be activated.

With Always Activated, if the RIGHT TRIGGER is HELD in any way, your Weapon Fire mod will be ACTIVATED.

With Fully Hold Activation, if the RIGHT TRIGGER is FULLY HELD all the way down, your Weapon Fire mod will be ACTIVATED.

With Fully Hold Blocked, if the RIGHT TRIGGER is FULLY HELD all the way down, your Weapon Fire mod will be BLOCKED.

ADVANCED CONTROLS

CLASS 2 – ADVANCED CONTROLS

When Javelin Controls is ON, and you have selected your Javelin in Mod Central, you will be able to take advantage of Javelin specific mods:

Javelin Controls REQUIRES the OFF setting for the in game Alternate Button Configuration.

Max Jump (All Javelins): HOLD the Jump Button to perform your Javelin's full jump sequence, or TAP the Jump Button to jump normally.

Shield Rush (Colossus): CLICK & HOLD in the Sprint Button to run with your shield.

Shield Bash (Colossus): While your shield is down, HOLD the Shield Button to quickly shield and attack, or TAP the Shield Button to pull up your shield normally.

Turbo Melee (Interceptor): HOLD the Melee Button to melee as fast as possible.

You can switch your Javelin selection on the fly; while HOLDING the RIGHT D-Pad:
- TAP the TRIANGLE/Y Button for 1, Ranger (default).
- TAP the CIRCLE/B Button for 2, Colossus.
- TAP the CROSS/A Button for 3, Storm.
- TAP the SQUARE/X Button for 4, Interceptor.
- The controller will rumble the number of times to indicate the Javelin number.

When Enhanced Controls is ON, the controls will be much more streamlined and shooter-like:

Enhanced Controls REQUIRES the OFF setting for the in game Alternate Button Configuration.

Controls:

Switch Weapons: QUICKLY TAP & RELEASE the TRIANGLE/Y Button to switch weapons. NOTE: If you HOLD the Button instead, it will act as a normal Triangle/Y press to help with menu navigation.

Reload: QUICKLY TAP & RELEASE the SQUARE/X Button to reload, as normal. NOTE: This button remains unchanged in its function.

Melee: CLICK in the RIGHT STICK or Hover Button to melee. NOTE: You will NO longer be able to hover with this button.

Hover: While mid-jump, QUICKLY DOUBLE TAP the Aim Down Sights Button (default LEFT TRIGGER) to hover. While mid-flight, TAP or HOLD the Aim Down Sights Button to hover.

In Game Menu: With the Enhanced Controls mod, this is IMPORTANT for navigating the in game menu and hub world, 2 locations where you will NOT want your controls to be moved around. While Aiming Down Sights (default LEFT TRIGGER), PRESS in the TOUCHPAD/VIEW Button to SUSPEND/RESUME all mods, except paddle mods. (Suspended: Heavy Rumble / Resumed: Light Rumble).

CLASS 3 – ADS ANTI-RECOIL

When ADS Anti-Recoil is ON, and adjusted accordingly, your aim will be automatically pulled down upon firing, reducing weapon recoil.

Anti-Recoil ONLY activates from Aim Down Sights (default LEFT TRIGGER).
Choose Anti-Recoil Quick Edit in Mod Central, if you want to adjust it on the fly during gameplay. NOTE: Quick Edit is NOT available with Flipped Bumper/Trigger Swap or One Handed (accessibility).
First, select 1 of 4 Anti-Recoil profiles during gameplay; while HOLDING the DOWN D-Pad:
- TAP the TRIANGLE/Y Button for Profile 1.
- TAP the CIRCLE/B Button for Profile 2.
- TAP the CROSS/A Button for Profile 3.
- TAP the SQUARE/X Button for Profile 4.
- The controller will rumble the number of times to indicate the profile number.

You can now adjust Anti-Recoil for your currently selected profile. Not enough weight and your weapons will still pull upwards; too much weight and your weapon will begin pulling downwards; you want your weapon to be as level as possible. When you are first adjusting Anti-Recoil, we recommend setting up your favourite weapons while looking at a wall.

With the Quick Edit feature, during gameplay, while HOLDING BOTH Aim Down Sights & Fire (default BOTH TRIGGERS):
- Quick Edit adjusts and saves to the profile that you are currently switched to.
- If the weapon is pulling up, keep TAPPING the DOWN D-Pad (Rumbles).
- If the weapon is pulling down, keep TAPPING the UP D-Pad (Rumbles).
- If while adjusting, you reach the MAX/MIN setting (No Rumble).
- When the weapon is level while firing, you have the correct setting.
- NOTE: Quick Edit is NOT available with Flipped Bumper/Trigger Swap or One Handed (accessibility).

If you are NOT using the Quick Edit feature, you will have to enter Menu Mode, and make your way to Class 3 Mod 1 or 2:
- Menu Mode adjusts and saves to the profile that you are currently switched to.
- To test the weapon at any time, HOLD the RIGHT TRIGGER.
- If the weapon is pulling up, keep TAPPING the LEFT BUMPER (Light Rumble).
- If the weapon is pulling down, keep TAPPING the RIGHT BUMPER (Heavy Rumble).
- If while adjusting, you reach the MAX/MIN setting (No Rumble).
- Once you are happy with the weapon, you can exit Menu Mode.

ANTI-RECOIL

CLASS 4 – AGILITY MODE

When Auto Run is ON, whenever you are moving in any direction, you will automatically run. Auto Run in Anthem has 2 in game setting requirements:

Auto Run REQUIRES the HOLD setting for the in game Sprint Mode.
Auto Run REQUIRES the TOGGLE setting for in game Flight Mode.
NOTE: By design, there is a delay to Auto Run after reloading your weapon.

When Easy Barrel Roll is ON, you can FLICK the AIM or MOVE STICK (depending on Mod Central choice) left or right to do a barrel roll in the air. For the Colossus, this will put up your shield.

NOTE: By design, this mod tries to track when you are flying versus on the ground. It will desync if you involuntarily fall but it will quickly recover from most button presses.

AGILITY MODE

CLASS 5 & 6 – PADDLE MODS

When Class 5 is ON, LEFT PADDLE will activate your chosen paddle mod.

When Class 6 is ON, RIGHT PADDLE will activate your chosen paddle mod.

PADDLE MODS

QUICK MODS

ANTI-IDLE

This mod will keep Anthem from kicking you from the server. It is helpful when you are in the middle of a mission, and you need to step away for a quick break. And if your team completes the mission, you will still earn XP for it.

Step 1: Be in the middle of gameplay, such as in an expedition.

Step 2: While HOLDING the Down D-Pad, PRESS the OPTIONS/MENU Button to activate the Anti-Idle (Heavy Rumble).

When you wish to shut off Anti-Idle, or the mission ends, simply repeat Step 2 (Light Rumble). Your controls will be locked until you do this.

MOD TOGGLE is helpful for quickly suspending the majority of mods at will, especially if mods designed for a specific action are interfering with other in game actions such as your knockdown shield or abilities, or the in game menu or lobby itself. This control does NOT affect your paddle mods.

While Aiming Down Sights (default LEFT TRIGGER), PRESS in the TOUCHPAD/VIEW Button to SUSPEND/RESUME All Mods, except Paddle Mods.
- SUSPENDED: Heavy Rumble / RESUMED: Light Rumble.
