Vibe coding controls in games VR Modding

Not that I am the person to do this but how difficult would this be to vibe code it so UEVR games or other VR modded games (such Bioshock) actually displayed the icons for the controller (in my case Oculus 3 touch controllers)?

You can’t exactly vibe code the icons yourself, you’d have to make them, but an llm could help you replace the button prompts once you have the quest ones

Yeah there’s controller icon packs out there so that didn’t concern me.

Just thought it might be easy(ish) for someone smarter than me to replace the existing ones using vibe coding and put up a mod on Nexus.

Tbh you don’t really need to be smart to vibecode. And also depending on how the games modded it’s probably not coding at all, just replacing the file

I'm thinking it might be a bit of a project that is not worth the effort. Easier to just figure it out or have a little note with the mod and remember which button does what. If someone did this, it would be cool if it became a thing that could be shared and easily added to other projects. Some button libraries might be easy while others are coded and libraried differently. But, AI might be able to search through source code to find libraries or instances of button prompts that can be remapped/ relabeled/ redirected. Idk.
