controller suddenly not working

[domo-kun69]

so ive been playing stardew on my mac for a few months with a controller and today all of a sudden stardew doesnt recognize it. the controller works fine with other games in steam, i have tried enabling and disabling steam input. Does anyone know what else i can do?
Im using a 8BitDo SN30 pro+

Mine stopped working after the most recent patch 1.6.10. I am using an Xbox controller on PC and it was working just fine up until the patch and then it didn't work.

Go into Steam under Stardew Valley > properties > Controller > Disable Steam Input and now it works.

I'm not sure if this will help you but it just worked for me.

since the last update switch pro controller has stopped working, i am playing on a steamdeck and worked fine before update....anyone know a fix?

I just updated to 1.6.11 and Xbox controller is still not working.

Yeah, I noticed this as well. SMAPI modded game.

My setup on the steam deck - which also recently updated - uses two different controllers, both of which are having similar issues. One, a cheap Bluetooth ipega that previously worked and the main controller (nyko airflow ex) which was also working.

one noteworthy comment is that one of the fixes for the nyko controller involves unplugging and plugging the controller back in - this generates an amazing amount of hang and general unresponsiveness in the game, which wasn't happening pre-patch.

(This fixes an issue I've had since I started using the nyko controller again, where it stops working after not being used for an extended amount of time; I think it doesn't handle the power saving features from the modern OS)

i actually changed my controller input setting and then it worked last night, now with this new update im back at square one >:( so far ive changed my controllers input and disabled my steam input and so far nothing...

8bitdo controller (bluetooth) on windows also stopped working
works only after i disabled steam input and use the cable.
