8BitDo Ultimate 2.4G Controller/Gamepad not recognized by games launched in Heroic
I'm using the gamepad on an M4 Mac. It works perfectly fine when I run the games through the Epic/Amazon/GOG launchers in a Windows 11 VM in Parallels. However, no game I've yet opened in Heroic has detected the controller, even though my System Settings indicated that the controller is indeed connected via Bluetooth.
Not sure if the attached log file indicates anything about the controller since it doesn't recognize it....

don't make multiple threads about one thing

Oh, sorry, didn't intend to. I mentioned the controller issue in another thread because that was what I was trying to fix by switching the msync/esync settings.
This thread can be deleted, actually, because I only remembered this morning that issues also get posted to GitHub. After searching there, Heroic doesn't have any control over the controllers (...pun not initially intended); it's the Game Porting Toolkit or Wine Crossover that deals with that sort of thing.

✅
you can try adding the game to steam and shooting it with steam input but good luck
