xbox one controller for pc directinput / Xinput

takisrock · Aug 22, 2016

Hello.

I recently buy an xbox one controller for windows, and it was ok so far. I love it

But the moment I tried to play pes 2016, with another controller, not Microsoft, just a 3d party controller.

I came across with a significant issue. directinput and xinput.

If the option is on xinput the controller works perfectly but recognizes, ONLY the xbox one.

If I turn it, on directinput, work both, but there is no way that you can adjust the xbox controller, which is a mess.

SO, is there any solution for that, cause I was felt disgraced. If yes, I would be glad to hear it.

If not, I want to take my money back somehow.

I'm supporting you as I can. I've windows 10, I've lumia 930, I will continue to support you,and that was my first xbox controller purchase.

but this? This was a shame.

:)

Directinput on Windows 10?

Since latest windows update for xbox one controller on 29th february directinput is not usable anymore by anyone with this controller in directinput games. Xinput works fine and directinput works fine if you use xbox 360 controller. I would like to know
if there is any fix for this? I do not seem to be able to choose rollback driver or update the driver.

Xbox ONE wireless controller on windows 10 issues ...please advise

In Device Manager select the Adapter, then go to View and View Devices by Connection. If a controller is paired you will find a device tree underneath.

The accessory app can enumerate the controller and update it as necessary.

Try the XInput based games, DirectInput games are known to have issues with the Dual Trigger support for the Xbox One controllers.

The main problem is that I cannot use 2 different controllers (xbox one and 3dparty) at the same time, in cause of Directinput and Xinput...

I forgot to say, that I'm from Greece and searching around the web I didn't find any solution to this one.

So my only question is how can I get my money back because I'm disappointed with this situation and I can afford to pay another 50+ euro to buy another one.

I agree, but the problem is that even this remapping is limited to the available buttons that are seen on a standard controller, this is not extensible at this time. The Elite controller features back buttons, but they can only be remapped to standard functions, the limitation is placed by the current XInput software, not by the hardware manufacturers, so a software limitation is imposed on developers. Xinput was designed to replace DirectInput, but the feature set is seriously short.

DirectInput - Older API - 8 Axis, 128 Buttons + POV

Xinput - Newer API 4 Axis, 10 Buttons, 2 Triggers + POV

This is why PC games favour DirectInput over Xinput, but Xbox platform only supports Xinput at this time.

the controller I leave it in DirectInput again,the funny thing is that in the xbox pass menu in adndroid, the controller works, but when I get into a game it stops working.

And if I connect it to the pc in Xinput it works without problems

Hi,

For your controller to work in Cloud streaming it needs to be in Xinput mode.

As per this note on the Power A Support page:

"MOGA controllers support two types of input modes: XInput and DirectInput.

If initial wired connection is unsuccessful, switch modes by pressing Start + Select for three seconds. Three LED flashes indicate mode was changed and retained in memory. Repeat process to switch back. XP5-A Plus default input mode is DirectInput, but also supports XInput."
