Game launched but doesn't react

[Citizen Erased]

Hello. I Installed the game and launched it, but when it invites me to press a button, nothing happens.

I tried a Xbox One controller and with the keyboard but nothing happens.

Any ideas ?

I run the tool you mentioned.

...
Searching gamepads...
Found 3 gamepad(s):
"Monect Hid Device", 03000000efbe0000edfe000000000000
"Monect Hid Device", 03000000efbe0000edfe000000000000
"Monect Hid Device", 03000000efbe0000edfe000000000000
Environment variable "SDL_GAMECONTROLLERCONFIG" is not defined
...

the "Monect Hid Device" may be the software I use to control my pc with androidphone , I will try to uninstall it and relaunch game...

What surprises me is that it affects several players.
What's even more surprising is that it breaks the keyboard (even though keyboard shouldn't be related to controllers).

Puzzling.

Thanks for the info! Every insight is welcome.

Maybe the game only binds to one controller ? I can see the others peripherals on the Steam setting screen, but i really don't know what they are. Could be virtual inputs but i have no clues. https://puu.sh/F86sh/ccaabb9dab.png

@MrHelmut Thank you!
hey bros, I get one solution.
I uninstall the Monect software entirely, and the tool "gamepad-tool" tell me ..

Searching gamepads...
No gamepads found

Then I launch the game and can play it !!!
However, the uninstall program of Monect seems not to clean entirely, I still remove some registry keys after uninstalling it. My friend has never installed Monect software, and he can play with his joystick.

Glad that it works!

Cool to know about Monect.

That's interesting.

Are you all playing in Big Picture mode or not?

[Citizen Erased]

No, just window mode (Steam controller settings force Big Picture).

[Citizen Erased]

Yeah ! That was it. Forgot that i had a remote app on my phone. Removing the PC Server solved it. The app can emulate a Xinput Controller.

Using this tool called... Monect (https://www.monect.com/) The server software wasn't very explicit. Kinda feel stupid right now.

Game launched and reacts. Can't way to give it a try !

[MrHelmut]

Oh wow! So it was Monect all along?

So glad that it works!

I'll still be on the lookout if anyone else still has the problem and is not using Monect.

If there are any other software conflicting, I'll make a pinned post with the list and workarounds.

@MrHelmut I dont use Monect and the advise of @Seafort didnt work.....

[Blubber]

I solved my issue. I can play now with keyboard and controller.

You have to go to Steam settings - Controller - General controller settings and choose Xbox configuration and Gamepad configuration. Then you can start it and it works ...

[MrHelmut]

Cool that it worked for you, Blubber!

I've also changed a configuration within Steam in regard to controllers. It may have helped.

I'm still there in case of issues.

[HeezeBagGames]

I don't have Monect installed and can't get any input devices to do anything.

Wanted to sound off on this as well. I had a Qanba Obsidian PS4 fight stick plugged into my computer when trying to play this.

Unplugged it, and it started working.

[HeezeBagGames]

I sure would like to play this game.
