Controllers don't work?

[Silhouette]

So, game is listed as "Full Controller Support", but it only works with Mouse and Keyboard.

Steam Input on, off, default, whichever. nothing seems to work.

Anyone figured this out, yet?

I've been playing this with my Xbox One Controller flawlessly worked the moment I plugged it in, no set up required. So I'll attribute it to you having some sort of other issue that is causing it.

Two or three threads about controller issues say it might be more than just me, but hey, post "it works for me" a few more times and it might change something.

Jokes aside, I've got a default steam setup right here; I've never managed my controller settings. It's always just worked. I can't say it is any setting I might have tripped based on that.

Don't suppose you've gone and messed with yours at some point in the past that might have coincidentally supported it? Big Picture mode, etc.?

I haven't done much and I've only used big picture mode on accident as I hate it. I just start the game normally from my mouse and once in game I press a few buttons so it will change over, I wish I had more to add that could help with figuring out why this problem is occurring for and any others.

I'm using a ZD-V+ wired usb controller and it works fine. Didn't have to do anything special, it worked immediately.

I am using a DualShock->USB Adapter (with a PS1 Dualshock plugged into it) which is seen by the computer as an ordinary D-Input (not X input!) controller.

Most games don't even detect it, or if it is detected, I'll have various problems like spotty inputs or sometimes double inputs.

SaGa Frontier, however, not only detected the controller just fine, but the button configurations were correct without me having to remap anything!

Works flawlessly for me.

...You on the take or something? There's nothing false in my post. It -IS- listed as having "Full Controller Support", and yeah, none of them are working for me. I asked if anyone had figured it out, yet.

the person he quoted made it seem like the game didnt have controller support at all. which is false. try being less of a spazz and learn what context and reading comprehension are.

I'd say you should probably take your own advice, really, given the person he quoted didn't say any of that, and he was referring to my post. Have a peanut.

No remapper. Just first party Xbox One Wireless Controller, and the Wireless-USB adapter it needs for PC use, and Steam. Every other game I go at works fine with it.

While moving through the windows on the title screen with the mouse, sometimes I see the Xbox Buttons on the selections (such as B on config and so on), but input does nothing.

I've got the same problem as you -- I've got an Xbox One Wireless Controller. Tried it wired & wireless and can't get it to work.

Same. Something specific to the Wireless one, maybe?

Wild, my 360 controller I even turned on after launching the game and it instantly worked.

Mine is also wireless, but the Xbox One controller uses a different connection to the computer. I just couldn't get one in my budget for a main PC controller, but I hope they have a look at whether it's specific to that controller type, as they are different versions of controllers in the first place..

Huh. Maybe the adapter driver has something to do with it.

I have a wired 8BitDo SN30 Pro controller and the game also doesn't recognize it. I've had it work with every other game that has controller support due to it being XInput, but this game refuses to acknowledge it.

Welcome to the sad boys club. =( I'm going to keep trying stuff to see what can be done, fingers crossed.

bro i didnt say that hurrrrrr

[Hyper Realistic Blood]

Booting this back up to the top to say the game does work with a PS4 controller with no additional software, despite not working with my 8BitDo controller. Mysterious.

That is because that is false. This is some issue OP is having.

Sounds very accurate to me, you have a handful of people posting they have controller issues, while the other 2000 in game are not having them.

Leading to the argument that the game only works with keyboard and mouse to being false, and being more of a you problem that (rightfuly) needs solving.

Misleading people into thinking that there is actual no support, when there actually is.

The thing about saying "It's more of a you problem" is that the people with controllers not working don't know why they're not working. There's nothing on our side that can be done to fix it.

Why does my 8bitdo that works for literally every other controller-supported game not work but my PS4 one that often needs third party software does? Why does one person's XBox One controller not work but a thousand others do?

There's something a little funky here, and the dots can only be connected through people saying what they're using that isn't working.

...That's definitely the situation I'm working with, just about. I have no idea why you're having such a hard time with that. Have another peanut.

Man, I'm not going to pretend to get what your problem with my post is or why you're so hung up on how its worded; I've said from the start that it's not working and I was asking if anyone else had figured it out. Of course it is something I'm dealing with, specifically, and you picked up on that. Sounds like a reasonable assumption. And yeah, I did point out the 'full controller support' thing because it was probably the most obvious contradiction. The only bit I contested was you saying my post was false. To me, it sounds like you're being super-literal just to go 'um ackshually' even though you didn't really have any issues picking up what I was putting down, and not actually doing much otherwise.

I'm glad yours is working. Got any tips or suggestions to get the rest of us there? Or is this all we're doing?

me too this has got to be the quickest game i have ever refunded what a joke!

Razer Wolverine user here, which has a xbox one layout. Controller doesn't work in this game, but every other game I have.. Sucks imo. :(

[maestro]

It could be a lot of things, do you have multiple controllers? What about other USB devices that are kinda-sorta considered input devices? Maybe you have an art tablet or something like that hooked up, do you have a touch interface and/or its software active? What about things like a Razer Nostromo or similar? Multiple Mice? Keyboards? Flight Sticks? Racing Wheels? VR?

One thing we know, is that the game can work for most people, but yet some people are having problems.

There is surely a common thread that links these together, games don't just decide "heh heh we're not gonna see this dude's controller." ... there's an actual problem, and there's always the chance it's not 100% the game, there could be another underlying problem like a USB conflict or something that other games by some luck don't notice but this one does.

I think one place to start looking is the fact that this game will see D-Input controllers. Most games today don't see D-Input controllers, so maybe this game is looking for ALL input devices, and if it sees multiple ones, it will either lock up, or it picks the wrong one to receive input from?

[Hyper Realistic Blood]

I don't think it's an issue with other devices connected, entirely because I can play with my PS4 controller but not my 8BitDo one. I've even tried other USB ports with the 8BitDo and it doesn't seem to work.

I saw a thing somewhere about people who cracked and pirated the game had controller issues, but fixed it by including some file that got left out of the crack. Maybe something like that's happening here? I don't see how Steam would include the proper file for almost everyone but leave out random users, but it's the only thing resembling a lead I've gotten.

i have a razer tartarus connected, which is indeed treated as a controller and this a common error. however, i already tried to unplug it, but this game doesn't recognize the wolverine controller. nothing else connectred is considered a controller. I also tried multiple usb ports, front, rear, usb hub, doesn't change anything.

[Silhouette]

So, a bit of progress: I not entirely sure if anything else caused it, but after forcing SteamInput on, and launching the game under Big Picture mode, it seems to recognize the controller.

Turning off Big Picture mode, of course, kills the connection, though. The only difference I can see between the two is the blue controller notice that pops up on the bottom right side when it is launched in big picture mode.
