Steam emulated Controller not working anymore in 1.43.0.80

#1 Post by Foozer » 03 Dec 2021 14:35

Hi all,

don´t know if its bug or just technical problem. So please move the topic if i´m wrong here. I play on the 1.43.0.67 Version of the game. Today the controller stopped to work. I can use it to navigate in the Menu but ingame it is not functioning anymore.

I tried it on a clean profile without any mod. I deleted the config file in documents and i let steam check the game files -> no solution.
If i deactivate controller support in steam and i choose the normal controller ingame it works again.
If the controller support by steam is on i dont see any controller ingame.
But and thats a big but i would like to use the steam support for controller because i can select simple press and long press for the buttons on the controller.
Sorry for my english its not my native language.

Update 04.12.2021: Did a rollback to 1.42 -> Controller works normal
Update 07.12.2021: In 1.43.0.80 Controller still out of function -> again rollback to stable -> controller works normal

Hi! I just wanted to say that I've also been experiencing this issue since 1.43.0.67, up until 1.43.0.80. Oddly enough, when using a DualShock4 (PS4) and XInput, configured through the Steam Controller Configuration, the only button that actually works when driving is the triangle, which takes you back you the UI. In addition, since I noticed the user who reported this bug has provided game logs from profiles which has mods installed, I decided to create a new profile without any mods and provide the gamelog from the profile in question. So, here you go:

with steam input enabled. can you check if you have selected right profile for game?
with game running. open steam overlay > controller configuration > here you should see and change profiles and see button configuration.

Hi Tom,

thanks for your reply. In the controller config it shows me "Offizielle Konfiguration für ETS2" (official configuration for ETS2)

if i go back from ingame(truck) to the menu there is coming up a window with "missing controller" and it shows: controller(game for windows).
There are those 4 options with search, options, i guess input helper and switch to keyboard (playing on german, don´t know how it´s called in english)

And on startup(main menu) there are those little "flags" coming up from steam. there is shown "config loaded - official config for ETS2"

Hi Tom! Thanks for responding. I've got some, well, interesting findings for you.

I had previously selected a modified profile of the official configuration, and upon changing it to the official configuration, my controller started working when driving like a charm. However, that isn't all there is to it. In Steam, going to Properties -> Controller and selecting the override "Enable Steam Input" and then launching the game will cause my modified profile to start working when driving as well. It's an interesting workaround, to say the least, but not one that will suffice for every player.

Hi @Tom

Controller still out of function :-/ Gamelog is attached. I know there are mods in the gamelog. The used profil is level 1 without any mods.

if necassary to solve the challenge i can complete remove all mods from the folder and try it again. i you need anything else like dxdiag or something please let me know.

edit: game was updated to .84 to test it
edit2: game hast been updated to 1.43.1.1 -> controller still out of function, new gamelog attached
edit3: did a complete deinstall and reinstall of the game, signed of the beta branch, no more missing controller in gamelog and no more missing controller ingame. But the controller does still not work ingame
latest gamelog attached

Hi all,

at least i found the solution!

i checked the configurtion in steam for the controller. i used "official config for ETS2". I found there a config called "official config for ETS2 by SCS Software". After choosing that one it started to work again.

So @Tom thanks for your patience and the will to help.
