 Controlify allows users to configure different buttons on their controllers to actions in-game. You may want your own mod's actions to be able to be invoked from the controller too.
 
-To register a controller binding, you must use the `ControllerBindingsApi.`
+To register a controller binding, use the `ControlifyBindApi.get()` method:
 
 ```java
-private BindingSupplier action1Binding;
+private InputBindingSupplier actionBinding;
 
 @Override
 public void onControlifyInit(InitContext ctx) {
-    action1Binding = ctx.bindings().registerBinding(
+    final ControlifyBindApi registrar = ControlifyBindApi.get();
+    registerInputBindings(registrar);
+}

+    actionBinding = registrar.registerBinding(
             builder -> builder

-                    .category(Component.translatable("mymod.binding.category")) // the category of the binding, this is used to group bindings together in the settings
-                    .allowedContexts(BindContext.IN_GAME) // a context is where the binding can be used, you can use multiple contexts
-                    .radialCandiate(RadialIcons.getEffect/getIcon(...)) // if you want to allow your binding to be used in the radial menu
+                    .id(ResourceLocation.fromNamespaceAndPath(MyMod.MODID, path))
+                    // The category of the binding, this is used to group bindings together in the settings.
+                    .category(Component.translatable("mymod.binding.category"))

+                    .allowedContexts(BindContext.IN_GAME)
+                    // Allow using the binding in the radial menu.
+                    // You can't use a custom modded item directly in here, since it's not registered yet
+                    // and a runtime error will be thrown. Continue reading for a better alternative.
+                    .radialCandidate(RadialIcons.getItem(Items.BARRIER)))
+                    // Prevents Controlify from auto-registering controller bindings for Epic Fight's

+                    // the vanilla KeyMapping behavior, which may not always work well.
+                    .addKeyCorrelation(MyModKeyMappings.ACTION)
     );
 }
 ```
 
 To add a name and description to the binding, you need to define the language keys `controlify.binding.<namespace>.<path>` and `controlify.binding.<namespace>.<path>.desc` respectively, alternatively, you can set `.name(Component)` and `.description(Component)`
 
-Registering the binding provides you with a `BindingSupplier`, where you can then access the binding with `action1Binding.on(controller);`
-
-Controlify automatically converts your existed modded `KeyMapping`s to controller bindings, but relying on this behaviour if you are going to explicitly support Controlify is not recommended. You can stop this conversion with the following...
-
-```java
-@Override
-public void onControlifyInit(InitContext ctx) {
-    ctx.bindings().exclude(MyMod.myKeyMapping);
-}

 There is nothing special about rendering glyphs for controller bindings, as Controlify utilises custom fonts.
 
 This means you can use the glyphs within localised text, or just render it with `graphics.drawString(myBinding.inputGlyph(), x, y, -1);`

+## Registering Custom Radial Icons
+
+When registering a radial menu candidate, you must provide an icon to render it in the GUI.
+You can use `RadialIcons.getEffect(...)` or `RadialIcons.getItem(...)` (for example, `RadialIcons.getItem(Items.REDSTONE)`).
+
+However, **do not reference modded items directly** (e.g., `RadialIcons.getItem(ModItems.CUSTOM.get())`),
+as item registration is deferred — meaning those items are not yet registered at this stage.
+
+What you can do instead, is to reference the texture image file in the bundled resource-pack of your mod,
+using the following approach:
+
+```java
+private enum MyRadialIcons {
+    CUSTOM(MyMod.rl("textures/item/custom.png")),;
+
+    private final @NotNull ResourceLocation id;
+
+    MyRadialIcons(@NotNull ResourceLocation id) {
+        this.id = id;

+    registerInputBindings(registrar);
+}
+
+private void registerCustomRadialIcons() {
+    for (MyRadialIcons icon : MyRadialIcons.values()) {
+        final ResourceLocation location = icon.getId();
+
+        // For consistency with the current Controlify radial icons,
+        // this code is equivalent to:

 Controlify provides a Fabric entrypoint to hook into important lifecycle stages of Controlify. You do this just like `ClientModInitializer`.
 
+## Adding Controlify dependency

 ## Registering the entrypoint
 
 - On Fabric, you register an entrypoint like any other, by adding an entry to your `fabric.mod.json` file under the `entrypoints` section.
-- On NeoForge, you register an entrypoint using a Java service provider interface (SPI) in your `META-INF/services` directory.
