ME: Legendary edition controller not detected
Title. When in the launcher, the game has no problem detecting any controller I have connected to my PC. When I launch any of the games, the game does not detect the controller in anyway, as if it...

Using GLoSC works. I was having the same issue with an Xbox Series X controller and origin playing on a shield. Added the launcher to steam through GLoSC, unchecked the box for closing the overlay when the program closed, since it was the launcher, added it to steam and launched through there. Controller works in all the games.
A little bit of a workaround, but i’m just happy it works. Hopefully it will help someone else.
@JudasRooker What’s GLoSC?
it’s a controller overlay program for Steam, but you can use it for anything by just adding non-steam games to your library.
you can get it here: https://alia5.github.io/GloSC/
1. install it
2. make sure you have steam installed
3. open glosc, click create new
4. point it to the launcher executable.
5. check the box “launch game”
6. make sure the “desktop config” and “close overlay when window closes” boxes are unchecked.
7. save it and then click “add all to steam”
8. steam will restart, find it in the list and launch it!
couple of notes - i have origin overlays disabled, not sure if that affects it at all. also, if you alt+tab out, be sure to click the glosc overlay window (or alt tab to it) before going back into the game.
worked perfectly so far.
oh, and it adds it to your steam library as a non steam game no matter what, so if you have it on steam, select the one that is a non steam game.
thanks! this worked for me as well.
This will have to do for a band-aid, until proper support is hopefully patched in.
edit for details:
EA desktop launcher
DS4 connected with USB
Same problem here. Tried everything from cables, blutooth DS4windows. Nothing works.
Controller is OK in the launcher menu and doesn't work in any of the games.
Running on steam.
Also tried the GloSC option but it's not changing anything for me.
Extremely annoying. Might as well get a refund.
@JudasRooker had the right idea, however that version is outdated.
It is now called GlosSI and you can get it here.
I had the issue where my controller would strictly only work in the launcher and never after I started MELE1. I tried absolutely everything listed in this thread and nothing worked. After an hour of game time wasted (an about 4 hours IRL) of troubleshooting I downloaded GlosSI and followed every direction and FINALLY got every controller I own to work during and after the launch screen. Seriously, guys, follow the link and give it a shot.
