[Bug] Many games doesnt recognize remote Xbox controller

[CarlosLopezES]

Hi,

Many games, like Sonic Racing or Team Fortress 2 (in menu only), doesn't recognize the Xbox controller in streaming mode.

Regards, Carlos

Please make sure that you've updated to the latest beta (Jan 22 or newer) for Sonic Racing.
TF2 has a bug in the game where controllers don't work in the menu when it first comes up.

I think it is updated to the latest version. Coincidentally were the two games I tested, so i reported the bug.

Knowing that is concrete in each game, there is nothing more to say then.

Thank you very much, Carlos

Duck Tales HD and Electronic Super Joy have the same issues sadly. I'm also using the latest beta.

Same problem with Jamestown.

Lego Starwars : Detected but impossible to map in settings.

I had to set Sonic Allstarts to use the Steam Streaming Gamepad (or something similar) in configuration to be able to use my remote controller. Still, only one controller works and my second controller cannot be used.

The Walking Dead (first game by Telltale) and Dishonored do not recognize the xbox 360 controller remotely.
The Stanley parable demo does work fine with it.
I've only tried those three games so far.

Metro Last Light worked fine with Xbox controller

Gone Home does't recognise it either

The joystick on my Linux machine is not detected when streaming DayZ from a windows box. I've tried opening the device file permissions as noted in the known issues page.

LEGO Marvel Superheroes also has this problem --

Hey! I have the same issue with Dishonored, could you fix it?

We'll take a look at Dishonored and see what we can do in the next round of client updates, over the next two weeks.

now im alittle curious...i use a wireless gamepad connected directly to the host...avoiding any input latency whatsoever and bugs/glitches represented by steam in home streaming related to gamepad input...its a no brainer if its possible in any of your given situations...
