The diagnostics that I have read upon steam being the answer to the problem is just a coincidence to be honest. If you're versed in web development then you know how much that sort of thing is a second-class citizen, *AND* you're introducing additional layers to the equation - the opposite of clarifying anything "Yeah well look at this web-based tester" is no kind of authority at all. "It's just flat broken, nothing to do about it" is absolutely wrong. (Or rather, there is a cohort having this issue where the commonality is not Steam, and Steam causes a very similar issue for another cohort)Īlso, DS4Windows knows how to talk to my controller (including motion and touchpad, which, embarrassingly, Unity doesn't even *try*) and so do various commercial games on the market.

Certainly there must be a commonality between the users who are seeing this issue, at the level of drivers, hardware, etc - but the commonality is definitely NOT Steam It's always "garbage" in the same predictable way for me (checking the input system's debugger) suggesting that the low-level binary messages have various bits transposed. It's also not "random" as the bug suggests (reporter probably just didn't look closely or isn't savvy enough). I wonder how closely they actually looked? As ghos7report said it happens regardless of whether Steam is open, and even after going to great lengths to shut everything Steam related down and restarting without it (disabling service in Windows config etc).
