PS4 and PS5 controllers require an additional software to work outside of Steam on Windows.ġ. Simply plug your controller into your computer and open Plutonium. Xbox controllers should be plug-and-play with all our games. Simply go to Steam Settings -> Controller -> General Controller Settings and untick the Checkboxes like shown below. Toggling between Proton or Proton-GE per game is good practice in general as it can be a better gamepad experience with one Proton over the other depending on the game.You should disable Steam's controller support (or exit Steam completely) before trying controllers on Plutonium. If somehow none of this works but it should be showing PS buttons as the game does support displaying it, try and see if force running the game with Proton-GE support fixes it as regular Proton sometimes has issues with devices. Other games have Playstation button icon display in the game options (though rarely). Turn off the Steam Input per that game as I have listed above and it should work fine. Now, if your games from steam are having issues displaying PS icons that they normally should be doing just fine then the game most likely has native playstation controller support. the arch wiki says steam picks it up as a playstation controller and then uses Steam Input.

Steam does the Steam Input (not the system by default). I am going to try one last time though, and I am going to put it in a way that should be 100% clear. If somehow you don't believe me or the arch wiki, I don't think I can help you anymore. If you want help, first thing you need to do is listen and search.
