Steam Version - Playstation Controller not active/functioning

[silk rapids]

Report from @junior acorn

Hi! I just got this game and I haven't been able to get the playstation controller to work at all. I have tried wired/wireless, turning off my mouse, disable/enabling steam input on both steam settings and big picture mode. Restarting the game and my computer also had no luck. It works just fine with other games. When I look on the Steam launch page it says "Your Dualsense controller works with this game." but when I launch the game and go to Controller settings in the game, it shows Xbox games and it doesnt register that I am pressing any buttons. Would love to check out this game so would love some assistance.

Game platform: Steam
Game Version: 1.1-1237
Input mode: Dual Sense Playstation Controller

Hiya @junior acorn. Thank you for reaching out to us! If possible, could you send us a recording showing the issue in action? This will help our team get a clearer picture and investigate more effectively
Thanks so much, and so sorry for the inconvenience!

Sure, I’ll try this tomorrow!

Here's a video of the issue. The parts where I am on the menus/keybind screens are where I am trying to test the input of buttons but no response. This was on a wired playstation 5 controller but the results are identical with a wireless controller. They seem to be the same no matter which Steam Input option I choose, as well. Thanks for the help on this! Looking forward to trying out this game 🙂

I am having the same issue with my Xbox controller.

Hiya! Thanks for sharing the video of you going through the controller settings. Could you try adjusting them so that Controller Override for Coral Island is set to "Use default settings" and PlayStation Controller Support is set to "Enabled in games w/o support", as shown in the attachment below? 😄

Hi hi! Can you send your controller settings as well? 🙂

[junior acorn]

Good news - I can control the game with the controller now but it is still showing the Xbox buttons which can be a little confusing since I am not familiar with those buttons.

I did get this message when I booted the game with the settings you sent

Thank you for letting us know that your controller is now working after adjusting some settings! We’ve also noted that it’s still showing Xbox buttons 📝
Could you try going to Settings, then clicking on Controller, and changing the controller style to Style 2 as shown in the attachment below? Don’t forget to click Apply afterward! 🙂

@nocturne jackal My issue has now been fixed. Thank you for following up, though!

[nocturne jackal]

Thank you! I appreciate all the work you snd your team do!

[junior acorn]

Hitting apply did the trick. I had just assumed that it would automatically changed as I flipped through. Thanks for the help!

THATS WHAT THAT SETTING DOES

I never figured out what the interact style meant
