Everything on my end is working just fine read the guide and it should be smooth sailing.

I am having trouble understanding your instructions for how to set it up properly. How do I disable the Big Picture utilisation of the guide button? I cannot find such an option to perform step 2) , and I am unsure what you mean by choosing 'Profiles' in step 3). Pictures would be very helpful I think, thank you for your help!

Thank you, Booser. Let me know how it goes. I’m always open to improvements.

I figured it out. For anyone else with the same problem You have to edit the Rimworld profile in CC and go to profile and make sure the process name matches the .exe file where your Rimworld is installed. Mine was missing the 64 in 'RimWorldWin64.exe"

Rimworld doesn't want to let me use the custom controls. It disables controller companion it by default, and reverts to desktop controls when I forcibly turn CC back in mid game.

Add my Steam and I’ll send you my personal file, and see if it helps you.

Hey, running it outside of Steam leads to the same result. I know Steam isn't contributing because the game warns me that Steam isn't going to record my achievements when I attempt to run the game. The Rimworld profile never seems to take over. I'm confused about why I can't simply right-click a profile and set it as my current button scheme. That said, I set up a few of the default bindings. I can pause, left- and right-click on the fly without upsetting the default bindings, while still being fully capable of playing the game. I could easily map the defaults out for Rimworld, if I so desire, too.

Either way, I can play the game with my controller, no problem (a bit slower and unintuitively), thanks to CC. So thank you so much for bringing it to my attention!

I'll be adding PS4 controller support ASAP.

@Chelios - Let me know what controller you're using, also try disabling Steam as it can revert settings to steam defaults, launch the game outside of Steam. Get back to me if you try this.

SOTHPARK, it's because CC defaults to disabling your controller any time you enter full screen. You have to hold Back and then hit the Start button. You can use this button combination on any screen to activate or deactivate your controller (while you're running Controller Companion).

Neckbeard, I got my controller to work in the game, but the Rimworld Bindings don't seem to take over. It uses my Desktop bindings even though I can click the Rimworld profile and edit freely. Any ideas? Appreciate your work on this. I want to play and love this game but there's too much clicking for my wrists to put up with, these days.

I was unable to get it to work. Every time i open RimWorld with the CC it disables it and gives me a promt saying its disabled.

Hi, SOTHPARK, sorry for the late response, did you end up getting it to work? If not, let me know and I can find out for you. Thanks.

Every time i start up Rimworld it disables CC and i cant get it to work.
