(Potentially) SOLVED: I disabled both Steam Overlay and controller Steam Input, and now it somehow works. Strangely, I believe they were both disabled to begin with and I tried enabling one at a time, then both, and nothing worked. I wanted to test individual settings again so I turned both off and suddenly it recognizes my controller (DualShock 4)
I haven't played 1.6 but I'm sure I played 1.5 with this setup a while back and the controller was working. Now my Mac recognizes the controller (and I can use in Steam's big picture mode) but the game doesn't.
What I've tried:
- Started the game through Big Picture mode using my controller, and tried without Big Picture mode
- Uninstalled SMAPI and any mods
- Restarted my Mac
- Enabled/Disabled Steam Input in controller settings
Anyone have any experience getting it to work?
NOTE: Just tried with DualSense/PS5 controller and having the same issue. The game doesn't seem to recognize the controller
When you change the Stardew Valley controller config through Steam does it let you navigate that menu with your controller? Also is there any input profile selected?
I was able to navigate Stardew Valley controller menu with my controller if it's using big picture.
Originally there was no profile, but I also tried downloading the top few community profiles as there's no official ones for DualShock
