Can't get Steam Controller to work
Hello all...

Been fighting with this for a couple hours now and can't think of anything else:
I'm trying to play FFXIV with my SC and it just isn't working. It's the non-steam version but I have it all set up to run in Steam and when I get it going the overlay works fine. When I go to the settings and enable the controller it is detected but when I try to calibrate it none of the buttons work, nor do they anywhere else. If I use a config that includes mouse/kb emulation that works fine though. Also when I connect my Xbox One controller that works fine. Any ideas? Thanks!

DId you open the client up in Big Picture Mode?
Because that's where the input configuration is at for the controller.
Boot up, Log in, alt+tab (or press the Steam icon on your controller) and set up your controller from there.
There should be a few presets made for it in FFXIV.

Edit: Or yeah. You could've used Google.

2 seconds in google which I have already done and read that exact post.

As I said I have it set up to run from Steam, and yes of course I am running it in BPM. I have been using the SC in many other games, including other non-steam games, with no issue. FFXIV is the only one with this problem so far. I have even tried changing the desktop config in BPM to a controller type with no result.
I'm experiencing a very similar issue as you ronin. I was using the steam controller for the non-steam version of xiv just fine yesterday. Then the game went on sale and I opted to buy it for the steam version. I installed and ran it just fine. I then proceeded to uninstall the non-steam version, and still had no troubles. it wasn't until i restarted my pc and tried to run the steam version this morning that i ran into the problem. my pc and steam itself recognize the controller without issue. Even xiv recognizes an "xbox360 controller" when i turn it on/off, which was standard before too. However it is not recognizing button presses, even when i hit "calibrate" from the system config menu while it sees the controller connected. Any assistance would be appreciated.
Same issue, except the trackpad and plam pads work at the mouce. All of the other buttons are disabled. I'm using the top community configuration.
tried running it in dx9. no go
Found this: "YES actually. The key is to make sure your steam and ffxiv client is running under the same user group, meaning both need to be either run under adiministrator or not run by administrator. I right clicked the client for steam and ffxiv and make sure both are not automatically run by adiministrator, and it worked out perfect."

Will try and report back.
I saw that post too, and was a little unsure of what it meant, or how to do it. When i tried to set both steam and xiv to "full access" (windows 10) nothing seemed to change. It did however, allow me to "validate content files" via steam, which resulted in a 7gb patch that provided no recognizable change besides setting xiv back to its default user privledges. Very interested to see how it goes for you.
Neither were admin so I didn't change anything.
Sooo problem still exists.
I'll continue to try and fiddle with it too. I've posted the same thing on xiv forums, so i'll check back with any findings myself also.
cool cool cool. I'll do the same. good luck.
Yes I have the same problem, played the game just fine with steam controller the day before yesterday. Now the game doesnt recognize button presses at all. This is probably a steam bug, as the game has not gotten any patches during the last 2 days.
In my case, the overlay works just fine, and the controller works just fine, and I've set it up just the way I want it... but the game refuses to acknowledge it at all. I've seen it just magically and automatically work with some people, but FFXIV will not recognize "Controller inputs" from something it doesn't see as a controller, because not even WINDOWS sees it as a controller. It's technically a weird DirectInput KB+M... thing. *sigh*

I reeeeaally hope this is a weird Steam bug. I'll try again tomorrow.

it seems the latest beta patch for the controller messes with the connection to the xiv client. Simply going into the system settings and unticking "participate in beta" then restarting big screen mode should fix it completely. Worked fine for me. Hope this helps guys!
