Has anyone succeded in using the new control feature? In my case the right stick, yes just the right, the right one :) is not working.

Pads are recognized, I can aim, fire, use skill (one at the beginning) access and navigate the menu with the controller but I cannot move around so I can't play with the twin stick :) pads used are: dualshock 2 (via usb adapter) and dualshock 4, both working fine in other games and both with the same issue in hammerwatch.

Any clue for this strange behaviour? Just the right (move) stick is stuck... :P

The same happens for me. Also with a dual shock 2 (via usb adapter).
Anyone with a solution out there?

In these months I've contacted the developers via their Discord channel, since the official forum doesn't get much attention anymore. I've let them know of the issue and one other guy confirmed the same fact.
Maybe if you too get their attention directly they'll find the time to attend the matter.
They have released expansions and other stuff for both Hammerwatch and Heroes of Hammerwatch while working on Hammerwatch 2 and following the releases of Hammerwatch on ps4 and switch consoles so I didn't press much about this. But... Now they should be more free of chores so maybe:

I'm new to Hammerwatch just bought it in the GOG sale so I'm also looking for info on what is the best controller to buy for a windows 10 pc, I'm using keyboard at the moment which isnt ideal and it seems difficult to find a difinitive answer, but in my searches I came across this post here regarding software for windows to enable the controller maybe this is what you need:

No idea really but thought it may be worth a shot...

I got a similar issue with Logitech F310 controller. They were working fine with hammerwatch v1.3 but not so well with the v1.41 : All seems to work to navigate the menu but in the game, I can't move the characters.

My win 7 pc was up to date.

I found a solution : I install Xbox 360 Controller for Windows update :

And everything work good after that.

I didn't have those issue when I try running v1.41 on a win10 pc
Hi all, thanks for your reply

In my case still with both dualshock 2 and dualshock 4 the issue persists on win 10.

I have signaled to the developers via discord even recently at one exact year of distance, they simply don't bother with this game anymore.

I haven't tried the xinput dualshock wrapper but since the developers don't bother nor will I, I've just given up on the game and moved on. If someone finds a solution or wants to signal to the developers also is more than welcome to reply further to this post.
Hi all
I had success in using my DS4 by emulating a xbox controller.

I'am on Manjaro (Linux) and Hammerwatch version 1.41.

To emulate the xbox controller I'am using ds4drv
ds4drv --hidraw --emulate-xpad-wireless

Regards,
Mark
