Steam controller fix for Skater XL
FIX 1: Using Steam settings
Connect the respective controller to your system. You should notice a sound that is made during a successful connection. Open steam in the “big picture” mode and ensure the controller is operational.
Navigate to:
- settings > controller settings > check the “Generic Controller Configuration” and ensure both the Xbox and PlayStation options are NOT checked.
Restart Steam and make sure you launch the application freshly. This will ensure that the settings are saved.
Now simply launch Big Picture mode, and then launch Skater XL.
Here are some illustrative images showing the same:
If you followed the steps correctly, your PS4 or XBOX controllers should now be recognized and ready to use in-game.
FIX 2: Using DS4Windows
If you wish to use third-party software, you can use the DS4Windows. The instructions are simple, and so far, we have not seen any reported problems with it.
- NOTE: Since it is third-party software, user discretion is advised.
