Good morning all,
I have been enjoying Divinity so far. I couldn't be more impressed with the overall quality of the game.
I normally play on my TV through the Steam link using the wireless xbox controller adapter. Everything was working well, until it wasn't. I cannot identify any changes to my system, except for a small update to divinity that took place.
At this time, when opening Divinity Original Sin from the steam link, it is detected in kb / mouse mode, and not in controller mode. In this mode, the right stick and right trigger can be used for mouse movement. Switching to controller mode in the options menu prevents any input from the controller from working. The game then needs to be alt+f4'd to close.
If I plug the same wireless adapter and use Steam's Big Picture mode directly from the computer, the controller works as intended. If I use the steam link to stream Divinity from my Win10 laptop, the controller works as intended.
The only non-working scenario is my Win7 desktop through the steam link.
Troubleshooting steps taken:
Steam link configuration for "customization of xbox 360 controllers"
Reinstall of Steam
Reinstall of Divinity
XBox 360 wired controller through steam link
Misc other controllers
All of these tests come up with the same symptoms. Does Divinity Original Sin officially support the steam link? Other games and controllers are functional with the controllers, and the wireless adapter is supported by steam. This only seems to affect Divinity Original Sin.
Thank you for your help. I would love to finish up the game so we can start playing Original Sin 2!
