Xbox One controller not working

[El Churro]

Ive tried everything from starting the game with the keyboard and seeing if i can take control when the game starts, unplugging it at the title screen and then starting the game and even re mapping the buttons from the settings menu before launch, for what ever reason the gamre will not recognize my controller... and ideads?

I'm having the same problem

[Cyber Nyran]

same

[El Churro]

is there any good programs that are trustworthy for re mapping the keyboard to the controller ? Maybe that will correct it ? I cant figure it out, it works fine with FFVIII with no issues, but for what ever reason it will not register for VII.

Is anyone using a non Xbox One controller with Windows 10 that has it working?

xpadder works fine except i have to unplug the controller and then plug it in only once on the new game/continue menu otherwise menus in game act up.

JoyToKey is the best one I have ever found, so easily to setup.

I find it rarely has any problems, all it really does is make your controler an extension of your keyboard, once you get the keys mapped manually, keep your game on "mouse and keyboard" controls and it's flawless

Here is a link to the profile I made for it. it's identical to the PS1 controler setup

It just uses the default keyboard mappings so you don't need to change anything.
The free upload site only lasts a week from now, but I can always put it back if anyone wants it later.

I thought Valve added Xbox controller support in the last client update? Just create a profile with it in steam.

Many games have what I can only describe as "complete incompatibility" with any official controller support.
Soul Reaver 1 for example, it claims to have controller support, but simply activating the gamepad option sends the game into a button mashing frenzy, spinning camera constant attacking, the best part is, you don't even need a controller plugged in for that to happen.

FF7 in my experience just outright ignores any controler plugged into the PC. Does not matter if 360 or PS3/4 from the ones I tried.

Valve adding support to steam won't change the faults in the games themselves, unless Valves controller support is actually translating to keyboard inputs, it won't help with FF7.

It can do exactly that.

Where is it? I can't see anything to do with it in steam settings.

I think you need to go into big picture first and turn the contoller on, afterwards you can edit it in the games steam settings or right click on the game in steam and you should see 'Edit Steam Controller Configuration'.

Edit: After looking through the options it looks like you need to enable xbox controller support in big picture mode.

360 Pad works just fine.

You can buy Controller Companion at steam,download the classic bindings from the app workshop and play using Xbox One Controller.

For what ever reason the XB1 controller will not work with this port since ive upgraded my rig to windows 10. Simple solution... bought a used 360 controller at Gamestop for $15 dollars and it works fine. Plug and play.

Xbox one pad works fine for me, just played through the whole game using one.
