The game thinks i'm using a controller. [Solved]

[ΛmiΔble]

Yeah, so the game think's i am using a controller, in-game it keeps telling me to press A to run, and when i press esc or when i'm in the lobby or w/e it is, it keeps.. well, looping weirdly. like i'd keep the "down" button pressed down all the time. this goes on really fast so it's almost impossible to do anything, just about luck if i decide to press enter. ideas?

[ΛmiΔble]

really? no one knows anything? it's funny when ever i post a new thread, this is very unusual that i do, i never get any replies..

I found this game pretty damn annoying to play with keyboard, swapped to 360 controller. A lot better. Maybe you should unhook your actual controllers.....that usually helps.....

And maybe you dont get any replies because you make idiotic threads with idiotic questions and are to lazy to google or use your brain. Maybe disengage all controllers from your pc.....


Because this is a classic case of having a controller on your PC but being to stupid to realize it. Also steering wheels and flight sticks counts a s a controller.

well since i'm gettin a reply like this i should let you know that i've actually googled around, nor do i have any controllers plugged in or ever used one on this pc, so don't be such a smart ass, neither are you aware of what the subject has been for the other threads i've made.

i think if u go in options it has the option on how u want to play like either keyboard or controller, and i think maybe that will help

[ΛmiΔble]

impossible to edit any settings cause of the loop all the time

There is a fix for this.

Same thing happened to me - menu options stuck in rapid cycle, impossible to select anything.

I have more than 50 Steam games, and none have this issue except Pool Nation, State of Decay, and Sleeping Dogs. I believe it to be a fault with these games.

The workaround...

1. Make sure the game is not running.

2. Go to Control Panel > Device manager > Human Interface Devices, and disable all the HID-Compliant devices and USB Input Devices. All of them, just leaving your mouse active (keyboard cannot be disabled). If you accidentally disable your mouse while disabling all those other things, just use your keyboard to re-enable it.

Now, start the game and the rapid menu scrolling problem has gone.

If disabling those drivers in the device manager has some unwanted effect, simply re-enable them. I have found that disabling them didn't hurt anything else, so I'm not sure what their purpose was.

Yes! of course. There it was. i had the vjoystick installed when steam had the hardware enthusiast badge-tasks to be completed. Never even occured to me that it had to be disabled from there, just figured it'd be enough not to have the application running. Thanks mate!

I know this is very old and sorry for posting this, but your answer caused me a TON of problems, I had to resintall monitor, mouse, headphones and everything connected through USB, DVI, etc. You should edit what you said and mention it can cause seriously annoying problems. Wasted 2 hours this morning realising what's wrong and fixing it.
