Xbox one controllers not working?

[mountainmohawk]

Anybody else having troubles with an Xbox one controller not working with this game?

[Henry Hoffman]

It should work. Have you tried unplugging/plugging back in? Do you only have one connected?

[mountainmohawk]

I tried that and it is still not working. My steam controller and Wii U controller work fine, so I wonder if it is related to the newest Windows 10 updates. I know some people were having issues with Xbox One controllers and certain games like Final Fantasy and some games made in Unity.

Ah yeah you're totally right, I ran into this issue myself when Windows 10 force-updated when I looked away from my computer for 30 seconds. There's a bunch of potential fixes online, but the issues seems to arise from the annoying xbox controller popup thing. I think I had to just alt+tab and plug/unplug a bunch to get it to work. Let me know if you find a solution.

I cant get my gamesir g3s to work correctly (I think it uses the same drivers as an xbox controller). Basically the d-pad works fine but none of the buttons are recognised. I cant change it in the options either.

Do you have the latest Win update?
The Win 10 update (31/8) should fix problems related to the Xbox one controller that surfaced with the anniversery update.
My wireless controller had problems before but works now. (In this game aswell)

Improved compatibility of using Xbox One controllers with various games.

I have "Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1607 for x64-based Systems (KB3176938)" which installed on 01/09/2016 so I think I do. Maybe the problem is specific to my GameSir controller.

I was quoting mountainmohawk who had problems with his xone controller..

[mountainmohawk]

Thank you, the cumulative update fixed it for me!

Had same issue in end of 2022 here.... This happened on multiple machines, so I finally figured it out.

Controller: Xbox One Controller - Connected Wireless via bluetooth (happened with 2 units)
OS: Windows 11 (Also happened on 10 long ago... IIRC)
Symptoms: You can move, but no buttons work

Quick Fix: Connecting via USB worked (instead bluetooth)

More permanent FIx: I had to roll back the firmware on the Xbox one controllers.
1. Install Xbox Accessories App from MS Appstore
2. connect your Xbox One controller to the PC via USB cable.
3. launch file explorer
4.- paste in the following command in the file path: xboxaccessories:\\firmwareupdate?legacyDowngrade=true

Run through the prompts and roll back your firmware to legacy.

After this, reconnect your controller to the PC via bluetooth, and the game should now recognize all inputs.

It worked for me after I turned on Steam Input Override in Properties.
