Controller Problems

[Zoltan]

I'm using a 3rd party xbox style wireless controller. It works fine with other games on steam, including FFXIII, but for some reason FFX doesn't seem to be detecting it. I'm not sure what's going on, since it works fine with other games. I have a 3rd party PS style controller. I'll have to try it to see if it works, but I'd rather use the xbox style controller if I can.

Here's the info on the exact kind of controller that I'm trying to use, just in case it's helpful.

This may not help, but I see in the link you provided that your controller allows X-input & D-input, are you able to switch between them, either through software or a switch? I didn't see a switch in any of the pictures, but I wasn't sure if the turbo button would have done anything.

I am using a Logitech F310, and it has a physical switch in the back, and while I've been playing FF10 lately, I've had it set to X (for x-input), I've not been having any issues.

Since you said it works with other games on Steam, including FF13, I can presume that Steam detects it. When you load up FF10, does it show if it loads a default profile or a custom profile? When I boot up my game with my controller plugged in, on the bottom right it shows that the 'Default' profile is loaded up for the controllers, so it makes me wonder if maybe it just needs a simple controller profile for FF10 to load up through Steam in order for the game to detect the controls.

I have a similar issue regarding the controller. I've been playing x 2 and grinding on the battle arena to get all the dresspheres up to a hundred percent. Suddenly the game doesn't recognise the controller even though I have been using the same one for more than eighty hours plus. The controller works fine on every other game but in x 2 its stopped being recognised. This is a proper bug with the game I think. Mine is an official X box controller.

Turns out I had to cycle the inputs. I went from X-input to D-input, then to mobile input, and back to X-input, and now it works fine. Weird little glitch. Thanks for the tip.

Ahh, ok, cool. Nice to hear you got it working.
