You might have to wiggle a stick or press a button on the controller after plugging it in. For privacy reasons, the browser hides the gamepads from Rainway until the user tries to use them.

Can you please try these steps for me?

  1. With your gamepad plugged in, open a new browser tab in Chrome.
  2. Press Ctrl + Shift + J to open the JavaScript console.
  3. Input navigator.getGamepads() and hit Enter.
  4. Expand the results and take a screenshot of 'em so that the id fields are visible:

Again, if the gamepad entries are all null, press some buttons on the pad and try steps 3 and 4 again.

Hi, Thanks for the feedback. For some reason I didn't have to do these steps and it started to detect the controller today. Thanks for helping
