    Controller not working for Fallout 4 in Xbox for Windows


    I have a Windows 10 computer, and I have been trying to use the Xbox streaming app to play Fallout 4. The controller works everywhere, EXCEPT with this game. When Fallout 4 starts, the controller just won't work in-game. It works in other games, it works
    on the Home screen, and I can run through all of the apps on the Xbox. Fallout 4 is the only problem game.

    :)

    D-Pad Control of Headset Audio

    Using the new 3.5mm Xbox One controller without Stereo Headset adapter, I know the current method for controlling game audio is through in-game menus. Looking at new screen shots of the Fallout 4 Xbox One controller, it looks like there are audio control
    markings on the D-Pad...is the D-Pad an option for controlling game audio? Link to the Fallout 4 controller:

    when do you think we'll see the fallout 4 announcement?

    Maybe Bethesda wont release fallout 4 for for a few more years. But what about obsidian what are they working on? Definitively not fallout 4 but maybe a "fallout: someplace"

  4. Controller not working for Fallout 4 in Xbox for Windows

    ive had the same problem with other games and it is to do with game streaming. what u have to do is start up the game through your tv first and u will find the controls work normally when the game has loaded and then if u start streaming it will work properly.
    i have found if u start the game while u are streaming the controls dont work.

    Xbox One Wireless Adapter for Windows - Works, but not with games?

    What games are having the issue? I know some older games weren't programed with the Xbox controllers. Try Fallout 4, I'm currently using playing that with the Xbox One controller without any problems. If not, upgrading to Windows 10 might fix the issue.

    Which game will be more successful, Skyrim or Fallout 4?

    Xbox One Wireless Adapter for Windows - Works, but not with games?

    I have tried Fallout 4, GTA V, Shovel Knight, DiRT 3, among several others. None of them worked, though I did find that the controller works with console emulators. Just not any other games.

    It would be really impractical to upgrade my entire OS just because of the controller, and I really don't want to use Windows 10 anyway, so that's out of the question. The adapter is officially supported for Windows 7 - Windows 10 now anyway, so the upgrade
    would be less of a fix and more of a workaround for the issue.
