Hello everyone,

My girlfriend and I are currently playing the mod. But we have a problem, your game pad is not recognized in the mod like it is in the original. could you do something about that? or maybe someone has an idea?

She has a normal Xbox controller for PC

Which version of experimental are you using and why are you using it? Also, how did you install the mod?

So I use version V21.1.2.4. I downloaded the mod and then unpacked it in the mod folder from 7 day to die and that's it. Why I use the mod is because it's super cool and it's absolutely fun.

First of all, I recommend you to update the mod to the latest version, which is currently Stable V21.2.2.6. Stable version is latest, experimental tags along as of now, but it is not ahead of stable.

Secondly, I've heard that the game pad issue happens usually when people use the mod launcher or when they make a manual copy of the base game files. Basically, in order for the gamepad to work, the game needs to be run "via Steam" (and maybe the Steam overlay needs to be ON too, not sure). So if she is using the mod launcher or has made another copy of the game, then she'll need to add it to Steam as a non-Steam game and launch it that way.

The mod doesn't disable game pad support or affect game pads in any other way, so it must be related to what I said above

Ah yes, updating to V21.2.2.6 is savegame safe, so that is why I am recommending it. Otherwise it would be up to you if you want to start over or not, but this time it should work fine
