In order to set up the Dpad trick on controller, follow these steps:

  1. Add Xenia to your Steam game library.

  2. Launch Steam Big Picture Mode. In Settings -> Controller Settings, ensure Xbox/Playstation Configuration Support is checked.

  3. Launch Xenia and goldeneye through Steam Big Picture Mode.

  4. Press SHIFT+TAB to open the overlay.

  5. Under Controller Configuration, click on the left stick settings. Change the Style of Input from Joystick to Directional Pad. This ensures maximum strafing speed. Enter the Dpad up binding that is now on screen. Click on 'Remove' for a fresh start. Click on 'Enable Multi-Button ON'. The two inputs that you'll be setting are Left Stick Up and Dpad Up. The first of those will require you to use your controller rather than your mouse to scroll over to. It may look like it didn't work, but trust that it did for the moment.

  6. To check if you've done this correctly, go back two screens to the general Controller Configuration page. Under left stick up, you should see "LEFT STICK UP + DPAD UP". Now, whenever you are playing normally, you will reach max speed faster, saving 0.17.

This is the ideal setup for most players. It's comfortable and automatic.

Note: The only disadvantage of using this exact configuration is that you cannot also backstrafe in full speed, which is a niche trick on specific levels. That requires Left Stick Up + Exclusively Dpad Down. If you would like to modify your controls to enable this, Left Stick Up must only be set to Left Stick Up. Another button (like right bumper) must be set to Dpad Down. Whenever this button is held, Bond will strafe in reverse at full speed. In order to use the Dpad Trick, yet another button (like left bumper) must be set to Dpad Up and held for a couple seconds whenever Bond is gaining full speed.
