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...

I'm not getting anywhere with it either, I may try reinstalling to my C drive and then run down that rabbit hole, download only took about 20 minutes. It may be shotty install, it may also be a conflict between the EA Desktop and Origin. I tried both a wired Logitech F310 and a bluetooth connected Xbox One controller. Neither worked with the launcher vanilla, big picture mode on steam with and without GloSC.
I'm just irritated that I wasn't able to come home and play this last night, never played the ME series instead I spent 4 hours troubleshooting before I said screw it and watched a streaming service.
Edit: Reinstalled the game via EA desktop still the issue persists, Also the install folders are invisible with this install method. It's not a conflict between Origin and EA Desktop as I have also tested the game either disabled, the only thing I can now think of is the game is searching for config files in the wrong directories. Or the files are not there. I will try Big Picture Mode.
Further Edit: The issue was it was mistaking my HOTAS set as a controller and thus, it was not recognizing inputs from other devices besides M/KB. My issue was resolved once I unplugged the throttle and stick.
I did manage to fix it by enabling controller support from steam and running in big picture mode and enabling the controller from there.
After launching MELE that way to my surprise it actually worked.
I've also been messing around using this:
briankendall/devreorder: A utility for reordering and hiding DirectInput controllers (github.com)
I'm pretty sure it was the big picture mode that actually fixed it but I can't ben 100% sure.
XBOX Elite Series 2 here not working except in launcher.. Playing through EA pro on Origin
Weirdly, when I do this the games don't get past the splash screens, they just stay there. I'm not getting booted back to the launcher though so that's an improvement, I guess?
me too.. any fixes for this ?
I haven't found any and I've tried everything that's been suggested. Would be nice if EA/Bioware actually acknowledged this problem.
It's extra confusing for me because my PC has a fresh Windows installation with nothing else on it other than games so I can't imagine what could be stopping my controllers from working with this game.
