Stardew Valley (GOG) not recognizing Steam Deck controls as Gamepad

Hi, I have Stardew Valley (GOG version) installed on my Steam Deck via Heroic. So far I've only launched it while docked to my TV and an external controller connected to it. This has worked seamlessly. Last night I tried launching it in handheld mode for the first time, but while it is playable, the built-in controls are recognized as kb/m instead of gamepad. I have a community controller config downloaded for this game, but I've tried with several controller configurations including the defaults, but no luck. Forcing gamepad detection from within the game does allow me to navigate with the D-pad, but otherwise it doesn't match the custom community config I've got downloaded. Has anyone had this issue or something similar? Any tips for fixing it?

by handheld mode you mean desktop mode or gaming mode? in desktop mode you can hold the menu button for a second or two and it changes the controller config between desktop mode and gaming mode

By handheld mode I mean "not docked to external display", so using the steam deck controls and not a Bluetooth controller. Thanks for the tip about the menu button to switch controller configs, I didn't know that! I'll try and let you know. But I have tried running the game in both gaming mode and desktop mode. The issue is the same in both cases.

I got this error when I tried using the Steam Runtime with Proton 8.0. Also no luck with the suggestion of long-pressing the menu button.

ratty-blush•3y ago

try without the runtime

rising-crimson•3y ago

Don’t use Steam runtime. Don’t use Proton It’s not completely clear to me if you’re running the game as a shortcut added to Steam or launching Heroic in game mode. Can you clarify this?

stormy-goldOP•3y ago

I should have clarified this, sorry. I am running it via the Add to Steam shortcut in gaming mode.
