Hi guys,
So, loving Stadia. Been a day one player and can't wait to use it fully with all games coming. In the meantime I'm a bit cheating with other services like for instance Steam and Game Pass. I tried hooking up my Stadia controller - since it's the only controller I have - to my PC. In Steam, it works perfectly, plug and play and go. For Game is doesn't recognize it automatically and for each game I have to manually dedicate all the buttons, but it's not playable for for instance racing games. Is there a way of getting it to run plug and play for it? Does anybody have a workaround?
Extra: the controller is being recognized in the 'Device manager' as a 'Universal Serial Bus Device', not under Xbox Peripherals or anything alike.
Thanks in advance for helping!
Jim
@Rushedby Stadia controller is only officially supported to work with Stadia. For other platforms, there's no guarantee of how it would behaves. Your best bet right now is to talk to Microsoft/Xbox community or support and see if they can help with getting Stadia controller to work.
Since you say that it works on Steam though, there's one thing you can try, which is make the game to be recognized by Steam, then launch the game from there. I haven't heard this special case, but I've seen it worked with other games with regards to controller support.
Thanks for your response @Ivan. I'll try this tonight and will let you know if it works.
Let us know if you find something.
Thx in advance :)!
So it seems that Windows 10 doesn't recognize the buttons in a right way. When calibrating in Windows 10, the triggers are recognized as buttons, instead of triggers. The steering is ok and customizable per game, but the buttons don't work correctly unfortunately.
EDIT: it seems winsdows 10 doesn't recognize my controller as a xbox 360 controller. That seems to be the problem. Extra info: I got windows 10 installed on an external SSD on my Macbook Pro 15 from 2019. I think i'm missing some drivers actually. Is there a way to download the full set of drivers? I can't seem to do that manually for now.
Connect it using a USB C cable to your PC, download reWASD and you're pretty much good to go. I've used it without problems for forza horizon 4 and 5.
