nintendo pro controller isnt working

[NiBo]

Yesterday I started the game for the first time and just wanted to play with my Switch Pro controller. Then I noticed that my mouse pointer is displayed in the menu, but my controller is still recognized but not with the controller views but with keyboard buttons. I've tried everything, changing controller layout, adding eadesktop.exe, etc. Is this a common problem? do you have it too?

It is. I use a Switch pro controller.

There was an update to the EA App tye screwed up controller support for EA games.

You can make it work by added EADesktop.exe as a non-Steam Game, then launching EA app through Steam and Jedi Survivor through EA App

It is not supported by Electronic Arts, nor Respawn, and thus not supported by Jedi: Survivor.

Steam supports the Switch Pro controller, which they used in development of the Steam Deck. Subsequently, Steam acts as a "mod" adding in Switch controller support for games on the Steam platform. This does not mean that the controller is "supported" by the game, developer, or publisher.

I was able to get mine to work by adding EA app to steam, opening EA, then opening SW in EA app(still connects through steam). And configuring my controller from the steam app.
