muppets4 Posted April 23, 2016 Author Share Posted April 23, 2016 I installed the new beta today and am experiencing some strange behaviour. I've tested streaming with a Steam Link and a PC, both have the same problem. I have also tried a wireless xbox360 and a wired xbox360 controller. The problem is that the left stick suddenly acts as a mouse in games (PCSX2 and Dolphin tried). I can see the cursor moving around the screen. Left is not working, and right seems to work, but with a bit of latency. I did not have this in the previous beta, so I think it got introduced with this one (beta 5?)

Jason Carr Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Weird. Beta 5 introduced the controller automation replacement of the old controller AutoHotkey. What happens if you turn off controller automation in the settings? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muppets4 Posted April 23, 2016 Author Share Posted April 23, 2016 Just checked. Controller automation is off by default. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Carr Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 Okay, hrm. It does seem that there are other people using beta 5 with Steam Link streaming without issues, so my guess is that it would be some sort of odd configuration with the Steam Link. Unfortunately I don't have one to test with to confirm either way. I'll see if I can get some other people with Steam Links in on the conversation.

SagaXIV Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 I tend to avoid adding software just for adding software, but if InputMapper supports Xbox contrllers, I woulld try with it installed. It maps your contrller, and can solve a bunch of troubles sometimes. Keep me posted, I will see if I have any other ideas, because my steam in home is working perfectly or so, for now.

muppets4 Posted April 25, 2016 Author Share Posted April 25, 2016 Solved, I hope. When selecting DirectX input AND going back selecting the 360 controller it worked. No more mouse acting now. But I have another question. In PCSX2 and Dolphin the (B) button acts as the escape button. When I click it, the emulator shuts down and I'm in BigBox again. Must be easy to resolve, but can't find it..... EDIT: nevermind, the mouse behaviour is back. On both the Link and the PC.... EDIT 2: just to be sure I've taken one of my sons Xbox One controllers. Same issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SagaXIV Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 Hey muppets4, for the (B) button I managed to solve that one. I am just unsure wether it requires 2 steps or just one. 1) STart by opening Launchbox, go to manage emuatord, and then select your PCSX2 emulator. Then go to the autohotkey tab, and remove all togheter the script that is there, save and close. It sems not compatible with Steam IN house streaming. 2)The other step I didi, which might not be necessary is to edit the PCSX2_keys.ini file, and remove the keybind for the ESC key. Just let me know if step 1 is enough to solve your issue, then I'll be able to re-add a keybind to exit PCSX2... Peace! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muppets4 Posted April 26, 2016 Author Share Posted April 26, 2016 Peace! Is just what I need. I just did your first suggestion. No result. Kinda thought it wouldn't, cause Dolphin is giving me the same problem, and was no script on the autohotkey tab there. So I went on and did the second. No result either.... kinda lost now.... It has to do something with Big Box . Because Dolpin and PCSX2 both act exact the same! And they don't when I do not stream and play directly on the server, or play opening an RDP with the server.

muppets4 Posted April 28, 2016 Author Share Posted April 28, 2016 Solved the left stick problem. I hope. At least in PCSX2. Seems I had some settings wrong in the Lilypad plugin. The B buttons still acts as escape. I have made a screenshot of my settings in Lilypad. Could you do the same? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SentaiBrad Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 My controller is working great so I can post my settings. https://i.imgur.com/yFAVG4z.png https://i.imgur.com/Iwz3whv.png Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muppets4 Posted April 28, 2016 Author Share Posted April 28, 2016 Thanks Brad. Almost same settings. My controller works too. When I play directly on my game PC. When I stream over Steam the B button on the controller acts as an ESC and ends emulation and brings me back to Big Box. It's starting to get personal (-: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SentaiBrad Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 Then to me, that sounds like it has to be a setting. If the only difference between us is the method of which we see the game then it has to lie within the difference. The only difference between us is that im not streaming it, and I am using a PS4 controller. Just to double check, you don't have any AutoHotKey or Automation settings running for BigBox do you? In BigBox Options check Controller Buttons and Controller Automation. At least to satisfy curiosity too, disable them and navigate BigBox with your keyboard and double check your games.

SagaXIV Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 I wish I could add some advice, however, I am not that good when it comes to troubleshooting others. I remarked, though, what seems to be a strange behavior in Launchbox, and I wonder if it is intended: It seems like, no matter what I do, if I delete PCSX2 Autohotkey script under >> Manage emulator >> pcsx2, and then relaunch LaunchBox, the Autohotmey script keeps coming back, like by default. I am just wondering if it is a normal behaviour, if it is just me, or if it has a specific purpose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SentaiBrad Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 Yea it's meant to be a default script either for someone to use or to build off of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not have Autohothey enabled. I do have in controller buttons Button 2 setup as Back. The standard 6 buttons I guess. I changed Button 2 into NONE. Started up a Stream session and............... still the same. Button 2 acts as ESC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muppets4 Posted April 30, 2016 Author Share Posted April 30, 2016 Just to investigate further I tried Nvidia Shield. There is an unofficial app (Moonlight) for streaming content from one PC to another. I've set it up and tried Big Box with that. Works flawless and the controller functions as expected. No strange behavior of the B button (ESC) on my controllers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SagaXIV Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Great thing to know, I just ordered a Nvidia Shield to do the same! (Monnlight APK seems awesome compared to the PC version). Do you plan to stick with the Shield, or still want to troubleshoot the Steam in house? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't own a shield, just making use of the software. But I have to admit that it is tempting. I've been reading good reviews for both the tablet and the TV edition. I really like Steam over Shield for now, because it looks prettier and can be my all in one solution. I own a lot of Steam games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SagaXIV Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 I'm throwing ideas, but, have you tried with Pokopon's plugin for controller? I know Lilly pad is renowed, but sometimes, simple is better. ALso didi you try to disable the steam overlay in bigbox/In house streaming? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muppets4 Posted May 1, 2016 Author Share Posted May 1, 2016 Thanks for the effort. Not gonna try that, because Dolphin gives me the same result. So it probably isn't related to PCSX2 anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
