Xbox 360 controller issues (bumper and trigger buttons)

[Eternal Mango]

Hey hey,
as the title says, i have issues with my Xbox 360 controllers in the current version of the game.
Both of my controller show the same problem and the problem doesnt occur in other games.
The trigger buttons of both sides dont work and the right bumber does nothing. When pressing the left bumber is says that i have no map so it seems there is an input. I tried to remap them but that did not work. Without running sneeking and hiding the game is not as fun as it could be :D I just wanted to post this here in the hope for a fix or a workaround. I love the game so far and the artstyle and the animations are super awesome! Keep up the good work!

regards

Hello, do you play the game for the first time ?
if not, maybe clearing your preferences should fix this.
by running a .cmd file you create with content:

reg delete "HKCU\SOFTWARE\SeithCG\Ghost of a Tale" /f

If you are playing the game for the first time, maybe it is due to your version of windows (several updates glitch controller, so you have to be very up-to-date.), can you tell us precisely what version you are running ?

Hey, thank you for the fast reply!
Yes i play for the first time and my version of windows is 8.1 pro 64bit with all updates available till now.

We definitely have an issue on 8.1 then, you are not alone in that case.
Just to be sure, are you playing plugged or wirelessly ?

Always with a wire! :) Tanks for your support!

Bought the game tonight and having same problems (Win10, wired x360).

When first started up everything worked apart from triggers, so couldn't hide or sneak. Verified game files and re installed game but now triggers work but camera pan on right stick and d-pad doesn't.

Controller gets used everyday no problems on any other game, can anyone use the x360 controller with no issues!

so, here's what fixed this for me... (everything else did not work)

this game, for whatever reasons, seems not to like several controllers / input devices connected to the PC / steam link.

in my case, i had one xbox 360 controller connected to my steam link and another one to my PC. after realizing the buttons at the PC controller worked just fine i simply unplugged that one.

et voila... the buttons on the controller connected to the steam link suddenly worked. (i restarted the game, but i dont know if its necessary)

i'm also not sure wether it's necessary to create a controller profile for the game in steam - i did so but that alone did not help. i kept it after unplugging the one controller though and got no problems.

hopefully have fun playing now! :)

by the way: i also had freezes after dying and trying to save the game. this was caused by my anti virus software preventing the game to write in a protected folder. so if u got this problem too, make sure to create some exception rules for the game.

cheers
