  1. Basic Touch Controls on ALL Gamepass App Cloud Games


    I love that Basic Touch works with remote play. It has been glorious playing BG3, D4, Harold Halibut all in my bed or even my commute IF the connection is stable enough.

    But, why cant this just be enabled across everything?

    If XBox is all about play anywhere. Then how about on our commutes without having to pull out a clip and controller or Razer Kishi thing with 100 people squashing and elbowing me on a subway.

    Cloud gaming through the gamepass app ia so much more stable but if the "touch optimised" games can already switch between custom and basic...the seriously why cant all games be given basic touch and them let game devs add custom if they want?

    Touch controls no longer appear Fortnite Xbox Cloud Gaming

    Thank you for contact us! I'm Anderson, an Independent Consultant and a Microsoft user like you.

    good evening

    I'm sorry to hear that you are experiencing issues with the touch controls in Fortnite on Xbox Cloud Gaming. There could be a few different issues causing this problem.

    Make sure that touch controls are enabled in the game. In Fortnite, you can enable touch controls by going to the "Settings" menu, selecting "Controls," and then selecting "Touch." From here, you can customize the touch controls and make sure that they are enabled.

    Check that touch controls are enabled in the Xbox Cloud Gaming app. To do this, go to the "Settings" menu in the app, select "Controls," and then make sure that "Touch" is selected as the control scheme.

    Restart the Xbox Cloud Gaming app and try again. Sometimes, simply restarting the app can resolve issues with touch controls.

    Check for updates to the Xbox Cloud Gaming app or Fortnite. Sometimes, updates can fix bugs or other issues that might be causing problems with touch controls. To check for updates, go to the "Settings" menu in the Xbox Cloud Gaming app, select "System," then "console info & updates," and then select "check for updates."

    Get the 'xbox controller only' version of the cloud gaming interface.

    Hello DenyingSnail,my name is Marvina, I will be happy to help you.

    I'm so sorry for what you're going through, there is currently no way to force the "controller only" version of the cloud gaming interface. The version displayed depends on whether the game you are playing supports touch controls.

    If the game supports touch controls, the "with touch controls" version will be displayed by default.

    However, there are a few things you can do to increase the chances of the "driver only" version showing up:

    Use an Xbox controller. Cloud gaming works best with an Xbox controller as it is designed to be compatible with them.
    Update your drivers.

    Make sure you have the latest Xbox drivers installed on your computer.

    Check your game settings. Some games may allow you to disable touch controls in settings.

    If you've tried all of these things and you're still seeing the "touch controls" version, it's possible that the game you're playing doesn't support the "controller only" version.

    In this case, you will need to use a touch controller or a keyboard and mouse to play.

    Microsoft is working to improve support for the "controller-only" version of the cloud gaming interface.

    It may be possible to force this version manually in the future.

    These are basic solutions to these problems, but they can lead to a solution, remember that this is a public forum where we are players like you who want to help, good luck and happy day.

    Sincerely,
    Marvina.

    Can someone show me a video on how I can disable touch hud on Xbox cloud gaming

    Hi Jacob,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Xbox Community. I understand that you want to know how to disable touch hud on Xbox cloud gaming. When you say touch hud, you're referring to the touch controls, correct?

    This would depend on the device that you are using and the game that you are playing. In what platform are you playing?

    If the game has custom touch controls, they will automatically be displayed.

    If the game doesn’t have custom touch controls, you will be prompted to connect with a controller for the best experience. From this prompt, select Continue with basic controls.

    If you only see a button labeled Continue anyway, then touch controls are not available for that game.

    Here's a sample video from the web:

    Using PS4 Controller PC Game Pass

    as the windows system does not natively support the ps4/5 controller you have to use ds4 which is a program that basically disguises the ps4 controller as an xbox controller, some games in gamepass work, some don't, obviously i have a ps4 controller and have used it for all games on every store except shoddy gamepass.
