Gamepad Options

[Captain Bruce]

Hello All,

I have really been enjoying this game. I have played it with both my Wireless Xbox 360 Controller and my Steam Controller.

Just recently I have been unable to use either. I went into the options menu and I select Xbox 360 Controller but the apply button does not light up for me to select it.

I don't know what happened from yesterday to today that would prevent me from playing this game with either controllers. Additionally I know both controllers work as I have used them to play other games.

Any help would be appreciated.

Any updates? I am facing the same issue. My controller doesn't work after the "Press any key" on the starting screen. Game version is 2.2.2F and I even checked the integrity of the files.

No update yet... I tried big picture mode to see if that would have any effect but to no avail.

Update*

I tried playing the game via big picture mode first and with the Steam Controller. This seemed to work well. My next item for testing will be to see if I can get the Xbox 360 controller to work. The steam controller is nice and all but it does not have the second analog stick for controlling camera movement as easily.

Hi all,

I had this issue and figured out a solution from a similar thread about Sekiro (I guess "shadow"-titled games have this problem, ha). I think the key for me was a "controller order" problem. If you're still having trouble, try addressing the "controller order" this way:

In Steam Settings-->Controller-->check Generic Gamepad Configuration Support and the box for whatever kind of controller you're using (I'm using wired xb1).

In BPM, go to ST-->Manage Game-->Controller Configuration-->set it to Global.

Make sure you have Steam/BPM Overlay enabled (Steam Settings-->In-Game-->Enable the Steam Overlay while in-game + Use the Big Picture Overlay when using a Steam Input enabled controller...).

Launch the game.

Once you reach the menu screen, open the Steam Overlay (probably LSHIFT + TAB), and then from the overlay, open Controller Options, click Rearrange Controller Order, and make sure the controller you want to use is in the first position. Then, also from the overlay, change configuration support for ST to "Forced Off." I suspect that ST actually recognizes your controller better with its own in-game gamepad support than when Steam is telling it what to do. Exit and restart the game, and if you're like me, it'll work like magic!

Hope it works for you like it did for me!

I trying to play this game on a Steam Deck. Having the same issue.

I'm not able to use the Steam Deck controls nor a connected 8BitDo Ultimate controller. It stops working after the "Press any key" prompt.

It worked for a short while in the last few days. The in-game instruction(key legends) would properly show the Gamepad keys to be pressed for each action. When I use my mouse to go into some menu, the Key Legends how the correct ones for a KB+Mouse combo. If it press a button on my controller at this point, the Key Legends show ? symbols, as if it doesn't know which key is assigned.
