{SOLVED} XBox One Controller is heading to the left

[Lucille]

The first setting of gamma does not work, because the game acts as if I was pressing the stick to the left. It is a new XBox One Controller which works like a charm with TW3, GTA 5, Mad Max etc. The slider keeps turning to the left.

When I go into the settings, it's the same. I can't choose garphics options and so on, because it acts as if the stick was pressed to the left.

In the menu there is a wild jumping around making it impossible to make any settings.

What can I do now?! :-( I checked the controller in the Windows 10 system settings, and it works absolutely properly, well calibrated.

Have seen now this issue already mentioned in the sticky "squash a bug" thread. Are the devs going to solve this issue "XBox One Controller with Windows 10"? It's totally annoying...

[Lucille]

A workaround is using the mouse for gamma and settings first. The moment you use the gamepad, you can't return to the mouse and the wild menu hopping like crazy is trapping you...

I've read devs said 2 weeks ago they are going to look into this...I really hope they'll fix it!

We are working on it. Stay Calm and Play Layers of Fear using the keyboard for now. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Ok, thx for the reply, gives me some hope you'll soon fix it.

Windows 10 standard driver and XBOX One Controller:

Ori has the "going left issue" => solution 8.1 x64 driver
8.1 x64 driver => GTA 5 issue => RT problem
unsinstalling 8.1 x64 driver => Layers of Fear going left issue...

I think that is a driver issue from Microsoft, sometimes one driver works, sometimes another

Would be nice if someone could give it to Microsoft. I contacted the support but they didn't help.

I have the latest XBox One Controller driver for Windows 10 installed. When I plug in the controller, it vibrates, such indicating to be working properly.

It isn't an issue of my device, driver or rig. The game needs to be fixed in the way it checks the gamepad movements.

The Xbox One controller issue where it acts as if you're pushing left on the analogue sticks or D-pad is a recurring bug I have come across in many Unity Engine games as well as Grandia II Anniversary Edition (which does not use Unity but the devs have a workaround for that anyway so it's no longer an issue). I am using Windows 10 Pro 64-bit by the way and using the default Windows 10 driver for the controller.

This growing list of problem Unity Engine games includes (for me): Ori and the Blind Forest (it works perfectly with the DualShock 4 controller though; the irony!), Glare (menu issue), Beyond Eyes, Mini Motors Racing EVO (spinning car), etc, etc. Some games like The Last Tinker appear to play fine but the issue rears its ugly head in the menus (volume and brightness dropping down to zero for example) and things like the shops are inaccessible because of improper controller mappings.

It does point to an issue with the engine or perhaps how it reads/detects the controller rather than a driver issue per se as pretty much every other non-Unity game (with the exception of Grandia II, of course) works absolutely fine with the Xbox One and that includes Batman: Arkham Asylum, Mad Max and Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain to name a few recent titles.

This is an issue that really needs to be resolved as it is a bit embarrassing that Microsoft are making a big song and dance about Windows 10 being for gamers yet their own Xbox One controller does not work properly in games running on an engine that is very popular with indie developers. This issue was reported as far back as January 2015 during the Technical Preview but still remains unfixed. Perhaps it is an engine issue only though?

Um it doesn't say he is the developer no developer would respond like that idiot.

Mostly the idiot is the one who is pointing to others thinking they are the idiots... Btw, do you even know what an idiot in the definition of Plato is...?

Seriously? Stop the pointless beginnings of a flame discussion, it leads to nowhere except to a lot of spam...

He called me an idiot, because I trusted you, and now you are calling me to order...sigh

I aprreciate the defence, and I quoted you because you said the last word. I'm not calling you to order, but just want to avoid the needles discussion. No hard feelings mate!
I love the community here, and I believe no one should be called an idiot. <3
We ok? :>

[Lucille]
