  1. Controller not working for Minecraft


    My controller is not working only for Minecraft. I have done a console reset, controller reset, uninstall and then reinstall Minecraft and nothing is working. This is only happening when I try to play Minecraft, otherwise my remote is working fine. How can this be fixed?

    :)

    When I connect my PS4 controller to my phone it seems to not work on Minecraft and when I load into a game I can't move just the touch pad on the PS4 controller works got any ideas on how to fix it?

    I've played Minecraft pe with ps4 controller before. (2 years ago.)

    Now it seems minecraft is porpoisly shutting of the controller. My controller is fully charged it stays connected to my phone everything works until ien Minecraft and it shuts of.

    So it seems that they no longer want you to use playstation controllers.

    Can I somehow play Minecraft with an Xbox 360 remote on my laptop

    Is this the Bedrock edition of Minecraft you're trying to play, or is this the Java edition? Those would be different solutions to get the controller to work.

    I'm understanding your setup is a PC with Xbox 360 wireless controller receiver, an Xbox 360 controller, and Minecraft. The controller is working for other titles on the PC, but not so in Minecraft, correct? I am GUESSING that it's the Java version, because
    I do know that the Bedrock edition has built in controller support. The Java edition would require additional mods to make it work, and if so, I would recommend reviewing the Official Minecraft forums for the best solutions that have mods from a trustworthy
    site.

    Controller not working for Minecraft

    I have done all those solutions. The control and Minecraft are fully up to date. I am still unable to do anything on Minecraft, as soon as the game is in my controller does not work for anything but works fine for all other games.

    Make sure your controller is up to date by checking for updates on your Xbox console.

    Try resetting your controller by pressing the sync button on the controller and the console.

    Make sure that your controller is properly connected to your Xbox console, either wirelessly or with a USB cable.

    Try using a different controller or a wired controller to see if the issue is specific to your controller.

    Check for any updates for Minecraft on your Xbox console.

    good evening

    There are a few things you can try to fix this issue:

    Make sure that your controller is properly paired with your device and that the batteries are charged.

    Check to see if there are any updates available for your controller or the device you are using to play Minecraft.

    Try using a different controller or a different device to play Minecraft, to see if the issue is specific to your current controller or device.

    Check the Minecraft's settings to ensure that the controller is properly configured for the game.

    Try using a third-party controller mapping software, such as Joy2Key or Xpadder, to remap the controller's buttons to work with the game.
