On older configuration files there is a bug when running the command ( exec controller.360.cfg ), that the containing commands are unknown, this is because these are outdated commands and it errors.

Troubleshooting



If you run into the issue of the game still not allowing analog input but you are able to detect analog inputs from outside of the game, make sure that the " -nojoy " parameter is not inside the launch options of the game, then once within the game run these commands and verify the changes:

joystick 1
joystick_force_disabled_set_from_options 0
joystick_force_disabled 0


If the above guide doesn't work. Please make sure that your Xinput drivers are installed and follow this following guide:

Analog Not Working

Also, please make sure that Steam big picture mode isn't in between. don't let it recognize the keyboard as a controller by Steam.

LINUX ONLY TROUBLESHOOTING



The game can't be started as long as a controller is detected by the game, so in order to use analog, the keyboard and any other controller needs to be unplugged before the game is started. After the game is running and the menu is shown, the controller and so the Wooting can be plugged in again.
