New Steam Controller not compatible
Hello, I bought a new Steam Controller and want to play the game from Steam (activated there) when ingame the camera just auto snaps to the right, and it feels it auto moves in the settings menu ...
Forum Discussion
it auto moves in the settings menu in the game
Do you mean the in-game cursor is moving on its own?
People in the Steam thread are speculating that the game is picking up mouse controls from the controller. I have in the past tweaked controller inputs in Steam to deal with games with poor controller compatibility. The customization option are quite robust. I don't have a Steam controller (I use DualSense myself), so I don't see what options exist for you.
Have you tried tweaking the inputs for your controller in the Steam settings? Also see if there are any user-submitted profiles for your controller. If possible, see if you can disable inputs from the trackpads entirely.
Well when you are in the menu's you can feel the game pulling your inputs (down) just like the ingame camera goes automaticly to the right in a timed motion.
I will check for user settings thanks.Thank you i fixed by using AI.
So i made the AI write the guide. Maybe somone will find it useful# [GUIDE] Fix Camera Spinning & UI Flickering for Steam Controller (Dragon Age: The Veilguard)
If you are using the original Steam Controller or the Steam Controller (2026), *Dragon Age: The Veilguard* has a notorious dual-input conflict. Using the trackpad or gyro sends mouse signals, which conflicts with your movement (gamepad signals), causing the camera to spin endlessly to the right/up and making the button prompts flicker rapidly.
Follow this step-by-step guide to completely fix the camera tracking while retaining full controller button icons (ABXY) on your screen.

### Step 1: Force Gamepad Emulation (No Mouse Inputs)
We need to stop the controller from sending raw mouse inputs to the Frostbite engine.
1. Select *Dragon Age: The Veilguard* in your **Steam Library** and click the **Controller Icon** on the right.
2. Click **Edit Layout**.
3. Go to the **Trackpads** tab on the left menu.
4. Set **Right Trackpad Behavior** to **Joystick**.
5. Ensure the *Joystick Output* directly underneath is set to **Right Stick**.

### Step 2: Configure the Gyroscope & Touch Activation
To prevent the camera from constantly shaking due to your hands moving, we will set the gyro to only activate when your thumb physically touches the right trackpad.
1. In the same menu, go to the **Gyro** tab on the left.
2. Set **Gyro Behavior** to **Gyro as Joystick Camera**.
3. Click the **Gear Icon (⚙️)** right next to the Gyro Behavior dropdown menu to open advanced settings.
4. Look for **Gyro Activation Button(s)** at the very top. Click it and select **Right Pad (Touch)**.
5. Ensure **Gyro Activation Behavior** is set to **Hold to Activate / On**.
6. Close this menu by pressing `B` or `Escape` to save your layout settings.

### Step 3: Apply the Steam Deck Spoof (Crucial)
Because you are now using joystick emulation, the engine might still conflict when processing simultaneous movements. Tricking the engine into running its unified handheld profile blocks all mouse inputs completely.
1. Right-click *Dragon Age: The Veilguard* in your **Steam Library** and select **Properties**.
2. Under the **General** tab, disable **Enable the Steam Overlay while in-game**.
3. Scroll down to the **Launch Options** text box.
4. Copy and paste this exact command into the box:
`cmd /c "set SteamDeck=1 && %command%" -console -noimgui`
5. Close the properties window.

### Step 4: Launching the Game
* Hit **Play** in Steam.
* A black **CMD command prompt window** will pop up on your desktop right before the game starts. **Do not close this CMD window** via the X button, or it will close your game. You can safely minimize it.
* Once in-game, your camera will be completely stable and button prompts will stay in controller mode.
* If the camera rotation feels too sluggish or too fast, adjust the **Camera Sensitivity** using the default in-game controller settings menu.
