THANK YOU! This was driving me nuts. Neither my DualSense Edge nor C40 TR would work in RDR2, but worked in every other game. The interface is different from two years ago when you posted this, but it's similar enough and the same fix still works.
Thank you so much. I was just about to buy the game on Steam and was very hesitant about it when it said partial controller. You just made me feel 100% better now to buy it. A huge thanks bro!
If you have your controller connected to the PC and it won’t recognize any action verify that you have a steam input enabled. Hope it helps it did to me.
Hey man, thank you so much for the help! I've been looking for a video and one of them wanted to download a file, so I checked yours and It worked out perfectly (also I am with PS4 controller so It works just as well)! Thanks again, subbed and liked! Keep up the good work! Cheers!
Hopefully this works with a PS5 controller too? I think it's utterly unhinged that a game which originally was created on console, which is now on PC, does not have FULL controller support out of the box. I have no words
Tried this using a PS5 controller - did not work with the above instructions, however requires a further step not mentioned In your Library go to the game *Red Dead Redemption 2* Right click, then properties, left side go to controller and there is a drop down menu *disable steam input* .... change to *enable steam input* launch game and press a button and it will switch to the Ps5 controller
hey instead of opening big picture, keep it out of that, go to steam>settings>controller, under external gamepad settings, select enabled for "playstation controller support" instead of it being only for games with ps controller support. it forces it to work for any game without ps support i think.
Still doing it for me. It works great for a few minutes then just stops but the horse keeps going. In the pause menu I can press buttons but won’t actually do anything 😢
Damn i had to play with ds4 windows to be able to play but this worked amazingly all my other games work perfectly but rdr2 didn't so this trick is absolutely banger.
i know the video is getting old, but im having similar problem. im using rockstars own fantastic launcher... xbox controller works. stadia controller worked one time, now it doesnt. i cant fint a fix anywhere except for steam fixes.. same for changing the button layout so you dont have to smash you bottons to gallop... again only steam.
Since I don't have a PS4 controller I will not be able to try any of these to see if they work and make a video about it. But here is what I have found. www.getdroidtips.com/red-dead-redemption-2-controller-not-working-pc/

@@EASTBAYGaming1 Getting ready to put my pc together and get rdr2. This will help me because i hate playing k&m.👍 subbed.
@@leopoldbuttersstotch73 Thanks Butters! Luv u on South Park btw
Best video on here for this. So many people on steam questions were saying some crap i knew wouldnt help, but this did, thank you!!!
@@allenbutler4273 thank you. I have a second one for an updated version of Steam should this happen again.
I’m playing through rockstar games launcher like a dummy and I can’t get my controller to work
Can’t you put the game on steam? Like put a non-steam game inside your steam library?
@@Sampoyiit doesn’t work
Solution if you go to steam in enable input. You should be about to use any controller now
Yes it does @@divinefalola128

why the hell does my big picture mode look completely different? i can't find "manage games" or any "input" settings.
That’s odd. Curious as to what yours looks like compared to mine?
same here and I lack all the options showed, I just have the normal options you get by right clicking the game in your library.
Same problem here.
@@billcipher147 are you on Windows 11? Idk why that would matter but I'm on 10. Also, you have the most up to date version of Steam?

Thanks this worked for me

My R2 doesn't work as it should, and with updated steam, doesn't appear as it does on your tutorial, any help?
This looks nothing like my Steam settings. They've changed things. Not sure what I need to change now.
I just posted an updated video last week. The link is in the description or you can just go to my channel.
Tons of reddit articles and NOTHING! Thanks for the vid, man!
Yeah this was very frustrating until I finally got it to work. Glad it helped!
Really Good! 👏🏻
My Nacon Revolution Pro Unlimited NOW works with this game.
I like it! 🤜🏻🤛🏻
Glad this helped! I was really frustrated myself when it wasn’t working 👊🏼
Thanks man
If you run into any future problems I have also made an updated video for this on my channel
I purchased mine thru epic games and I can't use controller at all
Thanks a lot
Glad it helped. If you update Steam I made a recent video that will help out if you have controller issues after the update. Just an FYI
Can someone help me I bought the game on rockstar and my controller doesn’t connect ?
Thank you!!
Awesome tips bro
What do I do if I downloaded the game through rockstar
Let me see what I can find.
Having the same problem at the moment
@@El_Jefe1239 Do you have steam on your pc?
@@EASTBAYGaming1 got it resolved appreciate it
@@EASTBAYGaming1 have the same problem and wondering what to do
Still doing it for me. It works great for a few minutes then just stops but the horse keeps going. In the pause menu I can press buttons but won’t actually do anything 😢
Lemme see what I can find out. You’re using Xbox controller on PC through Steam right?
I think it’s because you haven’t given me that scooter. Also first!!!!!!!!
My controller works but no vibration (KK3 Max on Steam Deck)
But it vibrates with other games?
Damn i had to play with ds4 windows to be able to play but this worked amazingly all my other games work perfectly but rdr2 didn't so this trick is absolutely banger.
Hell yeah! Glad it worked 💯
My issue is the controller randomly stops working while playing the game 😒
Any fix for that?
Could it the controller itself? Have you tried using a different controller?
i know the video is getting old, but im having similar problem. im using rockstars own fantastic launcher... xbox controller works. stadia controller worked one time, now it doesnt. i cant fint a fix anywhere except for steam fixes.. same for changing the button layout so you dont have to smash you bottons to gallop... again only steam.
Unfortunately since I run it through Steam I have no way of troubleshooting through the Rockstar launcher.
Hello I have the cracked version and I've added it to steam and I followed your guide but it didin't work .I have a ps4 controller
Let me see what I can find out for you.
Since I don't have a PS4 controller I will not be able to try any of these to see if they work and make a video about it. But here is what I have found. www.getdroidtips.com/red-dead-redemption-2-controller-not-working-pc/
any kind soul wanna help me with mine for some reason deadeye button does not work which is kinda of a big deal
I have no clue unfortunately. Maybe uninstall and reinstall?
This work in ps4 controller ?
I don't think so. I don't have a PS4 controller so I have no way of testing it unfortunately.
What if you are using Rockstar launcher??
Unfortunately, I don't have that answer.
I have this issue on Rockstar Game Launcher, any fix for that?
Unfortunately since I'm not using the Rockstar launcher I don't have a way of troubleshooting the issue from there.
@@EASTBAYGaming1 im pretty sure it forces you to use it though?
Everything I do is through Steam. I also have an updated video for the updated version of Steam@@wxrldondrxgs
Plz put Steam in video name, this is only for the Steam version...
Will do. Thanks for the advice
I see that I had it in description but not title. I changed it now. Thanks
I have this problem in the rockstar version, how do I fix it?
1:30 - I dont have that page. That's where we part ways.
You're saying that your 'Big Picture Mode' doesn't have that 'Controller Options' tab?
@@EASTBAYGaming1what about in the updated big picture mode no longer has those options

I only have XBox controller so I'm unable to see how to make it work with anything else. Sorry
Thanks bro! ❤
Glad it helped 💯
any idea for the game on epic games?
Thats what I'm wondering as well. I left my mouse at a friends house and it wont connect ot my controller but i wanna play lol
this doesnt work for me
Are you doing it through Steam or the Rockstar launcher? Also are you using an XBox controller or Playstation controller?
Does it work with GTA v also
It should if you bought it through Steam.
Ps 5/4?
Unfortunately I don't have a PS controller so I have no way of checking that out. Sorry
Thanks
Glad it helped
