Controller issue in non-steam game Fifa 16

[bolle]

Hi all! Steam Link ist running great. I get it to stream FIFA 16 without any problem. The only and real problematic issue is that Fifa16 thinks that two controllers ( I'm using a wireless Xbox 360 controller with original microsoft reciever dongle connected to the Steam Link) are connected and so all my input gets doubled. Becuase of that even navigating through the Menu is impossible. (1x navigating right results in 2x navigating right)
Anyone can help me with that issue ?

edit: Okay here some further info: I had a virtuell controller installed by another streaming app called KinoConsole. I uninstalled it. Now I can start the game with the emulated mouse (Fifa 16 runs with an launcher) like before but then it won't recognize any controller but the emulated mouse+keyboard. If i instead start the game directly on my gaming pc by alt+tab out of big picture mode to the launcher and start the game, streaming of Fifa will start but then again the controles are doubled.

edit2: see my post from 14.11.15

I'm looking for the same solution hopefully they'll add an option to change what the inputs registered as manually aswell as automatically when launched through steam

[bolle]

Yeah. The double recognized controller (if it gets recognized AS a controller and not as a mouse) is the real pain here

Finally someone else in these forums is having issues with Fifa. In the first days everything was fine, then suddendly this bug appears one day. Moreover I suspect that is something in the Fifa side, since people with Nvidia Shield are affected from what I can read on other forums.

I have the doubled input problems aswell. Reported it day one at their suggested e-mail address. Didn't recieve a response though but I guess they will fix it eventually. First they need to get it more stable for regular games. When the most important things are fixed they will look at individual games I guess.

Only thing that bothers me is that they do not communicate what they are doing and which issues they know.

Hey all - with the latest Steam Client Beta on my host PC i finally got Fifa 16 to work properly.
Here a short instruction for anyone who is interested:

0) Update your steam client to the latest Beta released today! ( My host is running Win10 and my Link build 370)

1) Make sure Origin in CLOSED. (I recommend to check the Origin settings and tick 'close origin when exiting a game)

The problem when just adding Fifa 16.exe and starting it with Big Picture on the Link the Fifa launcher window won't be focussed. So use so following to get the launcher focused. Theoretically you can creat a script to skip the launcher and directly start Fifa but then the controller won't be recognized. So..

2) Download Autohotkey ( https://www.autohotkey.com/ )

3) Creat a file called "Fifa1 16.ahk"

4) Open it with notepad and insert the following :

;
; AutoHotkey Version: 1.x
; Language: English
; Platform: Win9x/NT
; Author: A.N.Other <[e-mail]>
;
; Script Function:
; Template script (you can customize this template by editing "ShellNew\Template.ahk" in your Windows folder)
;

#NoEnv ; Recommended for performance and compatibility with future AutoHotkey releases.
SendMode Input ; Recommended for new scripts due to its superior speed and reliability.
SetWorkingDir %A_ScriptDir% ; Ensures a consistent starting directory.

Run, E:\Origin\FIFA 16\fifa16.exe, E:\Origin\FIFA 16\
;WinWait, FIFA 16, , 30
WinWait, FIFA 16
if ErrorLevel
{
MsgBox, WinWait timed out.
return
}
else
{
WinActivate FIFA 16
}


4) Now make sure to change the directories to the ones you use and save the file.

5) Right click the file and click compile script. Now Add the created Fifa 16.exe as a non-steam Game in Steam

6) Make sure Origin is closed and connect with your Link.

7) Start the newly added .exe .. wait a few seconds till the Fifa 16 launcher is focused. Now use your CONTROLLER so click start. ( RT = left click , L-stick = courser movement)

8) Enjoy :)

The script is not created by me. I modified it to just focus the launcher and not launche the game automatically. Credits to some gentleman who posted it on some forum.( I don't have a proper Link handy)

I hope that I can help some fellow Fifa16 player :)

Funny thing is, I may be the one who created the script (even if I took inspiration myself as well).

So the problem would be the automatic start of the script. I'll try it.

the script does not work with a x360 wireless controller, I still have the double input issue.. anyone know how to fix this? ffs...

I noticed today that I have to use the Nvidia experience beta. On the regular version I would still get double input :-\

[Lorthirk]

Mh, Interesting. So you're saying that Nvidia Experience Beta is fixing the issue? I'm going to try it ASAP, since the AHK script didn't work for me as well.

[Lorthirk]

Nope, using Nvidia Experience beta didn't fix anything. The bug is still here.

Removed it! I'm glad it's working for me. My configuration : latest steam client beta, latest link beta, Nvidia experience beta, latest driver (stable) , windows 10, installed Xbox controller software, using ahk script with origin closed and using hardware encoding. Hopefully there will be a consistent fix soon.

[bolle]

Small Update:
I figuered that this issue heavily depends on the Nvidia experience. Using the latest beta it is mandatory to activate the "share" menu. This will trigger the Desktop NVFBC H264 encoder for Fifa16 which doesn't show the double input. If one deactivates the share menu another encoder will be picked and the double input it present.
