Hello, Jerry34434 my name is oskayra I am an independent advisor and player like you I hope I can help solve your problem today

The issue you're experiencing with mobile touch buttons appearing instead of controller buttons in Fortnite while playing on Xbox Cloud Gaming could be due to a temporary glitch or a misconfiguration. Here are some troubleshooting steps to resolve this issue:

Restart Your Device: A simple restart can often clear temporary glitches that might be affecting the input settings. Close any unnecessary apps and restart your device.

Check Input Settings in Fortnite: Once you've restarted your device, open Fortnite and check the input settings. Ensure that the controller input is selected as the preferred input method.

Reset Controller Configuration: If the input settings appear correct, try resetting the controller configuration in Fortnite. This can sometimes resolve input conflicts or misidentified input devices.

Update Fortnite and Xbox Cloud Gaming App: Ensure you have the latest versions of both Fortnite and the Xbox Cloud Gaming app installed on your device. Outdated versions can sometimes cause compatibility issues.

Clear Cache and Cookies: Sometimes, cached data or cookies can interfere with input detection. Try clearing the cache and cookies for the Xbox Cloud Gaming app or your web browser if you're using the cloud gaming service through a browser.

Try a Different Browser: If you're using the cloud gaming service through a browser, try using a different browser, such as Chrome, Firefox, or Edge. Sometimes, browser-specific issues can affect input recognition.

I really hope your problem has been fixed with my help, if it works let me know and have a nice day. Oskayra

xbox peripherals other than the controller will not work over streaming full stop. the files you were trying to use are to set them up for other games, only the xbox controller or a controller with x-input can be used for streaming.

Hi magino85,

You may need to manually input the IP address of the console into the Xbox app on the PC if the console is not being detected.

On the app, you can go to the Connect panel and if it doesn't connect you can manually put in the console's IP address into the following text box. This guide should help you troubleshoot game streaming issues:

Try a different or new ethernet cable or try to only have the Xbox connected via Ethernet but leave the PC connected wireless.

Do you mean the "in house" streaming via the Xbox App, or do you mean the Project xCloud streaming to your mobile phone?

Since the Xbox App simply acts as an "extension cord" for your console display, disc games should work the same as on the actual console, which means, your disc has to be detected by the console in order for the game to work.

If it doesn't check that the game works locally on the console. If it doesn't work there as well, make sure the disc isn't dirty or damaged.

For xCloud game streaming to your smartphone, only digital games work, as the cloud service can't know that you have the disc somewhere.
