Controller controls all scrambled
Since the update my controller controlls are all scrambled. I tried to enable steam input for controller settings like it was frequently suggested here but it doesnt work at all. I also tried to activate and reactivate the dlc, while having steam input for controller enabled and disabled. Nothing seems to work.

While the dlc is activated the game creates an unknown device with scrambled inputs that overwrites every other controller setting - XInput settings and Steam Virtual Gamepad are shown but the controls do not apply for the controller.

Ive also tried the suggested fix where i disconnect the controller ingame and connect it again - which also doesnt work.
Ive also tried to start a run with the controller disconnected and connect it while ingame but it also doesnt work.

When im ingame i can get a local 2nd character added by pressing start who uses the correct inputs so it looks like the game creates a second set of inputs for Player 1 and uses the XInput Controller and Steam Virtual Gamepad for potential Player 2.

Also when i try to reconfigure the inputs inside the unknown device settings some buttons dont work at all or are labled 'unknown input' - they work just fine when the dlc is not activated.

I also tryed to change the 'inputconfigs.dat' to read-only while the unknown device section is deleted - it still gets overwritten, the same as the copied 'inputconfigs.dat' without the unknown device section from the Repentance folder.

I use a cable bound nacon ps4 controller.

But thanks for going more into detail, im sure this will help other people :reheart:

may i ask what system you are running Isaac on ? I have the same problems with ‘Unknown device’ appearing in the Controllers menu and mixed up buttons, I'm running under ArchLinux with kernel 6.11.9 xanmod_native_amd, Proton 9.20GE, Xbox One S gamepad (Gears of War 4 edition, don't know if it matters)

Windows 11

Had the same problem, going into
Documents\My Games\Binding of Isaac Repentance+
and deleting the controller from
inputconfigs.dat
fixed it

As ive said in the Post: 'I also tryed to change the 'inputconfigs.dat' to read-only while the unknown device section is deleted - it still gets overwritten, the same as the copied 'inputconfigs.dat' without the unknown device section from the Repentance folder.'

It just gets added back after i delete it

Im having the same problem with a Xbox controller hope you can found the solution....
Sure would be nice if I could play the game.. I hope there is an update, this is obviously a bad patch.

Update made it even worse for me now. When i disable steam virtual controller its still shown together with XInput - unknown input is still overwriting both.
Nexi Nov 24, 2024 @ 2:26am 
It is fixed for me now

I guess it has something to do with REP+ being a BETA, if you change the DLC back to REP the control will be fine, i guess it'll get fixed eventually

Chiming in to say me too, Xbox controller. Latest patch didn't help, unfortunately.

Same here with my DualSense. If I disable Steam Input, the native support binds movement to the triggers, and shooting to the left stick. If I enable Steam input, it detects two Steam virtual controllers, one of them works fine, and the other one is completely scrambled, and of course the scrambled one gets priority.

And no, the patch didn't fix it.
