Horizons SRV and 360 controller issues

[HUSKER222]

So my buddy has put in a bug but i figured id ask and see if anyone else were having the same issues.
He can use his flight stick Logitech 3D Pro and he has it set to custom and has all keys binded for flight to the stick. now when he goes to the SRV controls he tries to bind 360 controls to his 360 controller and nothing happens. I sent him my button mapping file and then he could see the buttons mapped but the controller wont work. He uses the controller for other games and works just fine. The controller worked in beta when he was using it for flight and SRV.


Any ideas?

He did try uninstalling and reinstalling the game. He tried taking my button mapping file. He rolled back the driver.
Nothing worked.

I had this issue the first time I tried in beta. Just make sure the controller is turned on before you launch the game. But once the controls are bound you can turn it on when you need it. I've had this same issue in multiple games.

yeah so i know my 360 controller is on. hell i can go to steam big picture with my controller, select the game and start it up with my 360 controller. from there though the game doesnt recognize the controller at all. also my controller works with other games in/out of steam and when i checked the controller in dxdiag and the calabration tool on the os, every reads good to go. im at a loss.

I had snags in the Beta trying to configure my wired 360 pad - I wasn't able to rebind any of the controls and certain things didn't work even though the button combos were showing in the context menu pop-ups. What worked for me was selecting a default configuration (classic controller, I think I used), save the setting, then go back and change what you need - at which point the layout calls itself "custom" again.

I'm not saying yours was off I'm just saying it needs to be powered on BEFORE you launch the game not while the games running. At least that's what solved my issues.

yeah so what im trying to say is my controller is being used to start the game launcher... therefore its on BEFORE launching the game so that fix is a no go. thanks for the response though.
