Gamepad direction Error

[Jmanderly]

Coming back to play around with Tekken I have found a significant problem with the way the game is reading inputs from gamepads or fight sticks. Could be exclusive to my system but I am unable to do anything with the direction controls. Mayflash 300, Xbox controller.

Managed at one point to get into the input test screen and found the neutral to be locked into the top left. Not sure how this is happening or what other conflicts could be happening.

Thinking it might be my stick and controller I tried other fighting games and gamepad tester and they all showed proper neutral.
Is anyone else getting this same error or have a solution.

You have the stick set to dpad mode?

MayFlash F300?
If so, try following.
1) Disable Steam Input
2) XINPUT/NS on most left switch
3) DPAD (instead of XY)

You can also check your controller with following site

Mayflash 300. Tried everything suggested. Still no change. Even the controller site you suggested showed that the directional inputs are as expected. Still the game thinks that the neutral position of the joystick is to the top left. No idea why Tekken is having trouble since KI and DBFZ both have no problems. I even reinstalled the game and there has been no change.

Your Input.ini file might get wrong while you were testing different mode.
I had the issue before and kind of common issue on Unreal Engine games.

C:\Users\{user_name}AppData\Local\TekkenGame\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor\Input.ini

I'd suggest copy to other place for back up, remove the file and start game to test.

The file should be recreated. It could be empty file for Xinput device and Steam Input is disabled.

Thanks for your suggestions, found out it was an input error that was related to another peripheral connected to my computer. Found that really strange since nothing else has a conflict with it. No idea why Tekken is registering the device to cause a conflict but okay. Now I know. 3d Mouse causes conflict with Tekken for some reason.

As far as your computer can tell its a 6 axis motion controller kinda like a DualShock 3...so maybe its for games?

Sure. But why is it causing problems with other input devices, since the gamepad test sites are able to recognize that this a different device with separate input logic chain. I find it more concerning that the game is taking input from the mouse that is in neutral and conflicting with both of my other input devices.

My worry would be that if I dove into what was going on at a technical level I could cause a selective error. No problem for me since I play fighting games casually.
