Re: Steam Input and Overlay Not working in Jedi Survivor

I confirm that the Steam overlay does not work when starting the game. Yesterday I bought the game and couldn’t launch it for half a day. Today I linked to the EA library, but overlays are not working and achievements are not being tracked.

Thank God it isn't just me

Has the game worked for x box controller or is it just switch pro that's messed up?

Nevermind

Has EA fixed the broken achievements in Mass Effect 2 and 3 on Steam yet?

i feel like their launcher is constantly fraking up my Steam games

I'll bring up the topic. Steam overlay does not work when starting the game. Moreover, it is noticeable that when the game starts, the game runs in the background, you have to switch to it yourself.

I've tried all controller types I own. XBOX One, XBOX One X, PS4, and Steam Controller. They work locally on the PC, but through Steamlink they do not. I have trouble with Jedi Survivor and Battlefront. Amazingly, It Takes Two has no problems. 

!!!! HERE IS THE FIX !!!!

So clearly EA doesn't care about this issue.

I read through some forums in the steam community page for this game and found someone posted a solution, I've tested it and it works:

1. Open steam.
2. Click Star wars Jedi survivor
3. Click the "discussions" tab
4. Search "possible cause ea app version 13.104.5617 (Jan 17, 2024)
5. (or just search controller and scroll down till you find the post title above)
6. Scroll to a post byDeNnIcOol (Feb 2 12:41pm)
7. Follow the instructions there.

I'm back to using my Stadia controller for Star wars Jedi survivor. 

Took a little effort but confirms the issue is with the EA app.

No thanks whatsoever to EA.

• I have problems with this it takes two. 
  Dead Space works fine, but that doesn’t require the EA app.

@EA_Illium is there any update from your developers? This should be easy from them to reproduce.
