Description of the Issue Disco Elysium: Controller works well but stops after a few seconds in-game (Xinput) or has swapped inputs (Dinput modern) Hades II: Controller never detected

Tried all possible setting combinations for Xinput / Dinput. Happens also in all other Winlator versions I tested

On Disco Elysium, with Xinput + Dinput modern, the controller works well for a few seconds and then has swapped inputs

Steps to Reproduce

1. Launch games
2. Try to use virtual gamepad or physical gamepad

Expected Behavior Controller works, both virtual and physical

Screenshots n/a

Additional Information If I try more games that have issues I'll update this bug report

Don't connect two controller (virtual gamepad is a controller too) at the same time

I know, I did separate. Thanks for looking into this

[djdp77]

Tried also with Wine 9.2 - same result

[brujo5]

please bring back old gamepad support, some games still need this

[longjunyu2]

Ok, I have another feedback about this issue. He used XiaoMi 14 and has the similar issue (No swapped, and I think it is not the original issue). This seems to only happen on XiaoMi device. Would you like to provide your MIUI version?

Do you have the same control issue like @djdp77 has?

[brujo5]

Hades 2 work for me in winlator 7.1.2 using old gamepad support.

Something similar happens to me with the game Bioshock Infinite, the game detects the control because when pressing a button the Xbox buttons icon appears on the screen but they do nothing.

[longjunyu2]

@brujo5 For old game, you are supporsed to enable dinput in the Setting of your container.

[longjunyu2]

@brujo5 Hades is not old game but it uses dinput as controller api.

[djdp77]

I'm using Xiaomi HyperOS 1.0.7.0.UMRMIXM

I tried Winlator 7.1.2 and same results. Hades 2 never sees gamepad. Disco Elysium, can work for a little bit (Xinput) or work for long but with swapped inputs (Dinput modern e.g. Lpad up = Lpad left)

[longjunyu2]

@djdp77 @brujo5 It seems that this issue only hppened on XiaoMi device with HyperOS QAQ It is strange..

@djdp77 @brujo5 If the games were working for you in the last update 7.1.2 on xinput and in this one they no longer work what you have to do is enable xinput and Dinput together so that the games that were working previously in the last update will work for you. And if you want to unlock some games that were not supported in xinput control such as the game sekiro what you have to do is activate the xinput option alone only and this also fixes some control problems in some games such as Dragon's dogma 😁

[djdp77]

@Dragon-11976 it also doesn't work in 7.1.2

[Dragon-11976]

@Dragon-11976 it also doesn't work in 7.1.2

So the game is not supported yet in xinput controller 😁

[djdp77]

@longjunyu2 Disco Elysium always works in menus. Controls only stop working after using the Right stick walking around in-game. The mouse still moves but you cannot see the cursor

There is also some input lag, but could be because of low fps.

Tried a newer version of Hades II, it now works

This solution (enable xinput and dinput) doesnt work for splinter cell conviction and blacklist result in not able to Boot into game anymore
