Sluggisch and Sticky Controller input when ran through Steam
Closed this issue · 4 comments
You can most noticeable see it on the Steam Deck.
Got to Settings -> Gamepad in Parsec and start pressing Buttons.
You will see that some buttons stick as pressed or do not even register as pressed at all.
I suspect this is a General Parsec Incompatibility with the Steam Input System, but I open it here anyway on the off chance that it is a Flatpak Issue.
Lets hope its a Flatpak one, the chances of getting it fixed otherwise are pretty slim.
The issue is still reproduced on latest version 3.9.8.
Is there any workaround for this?
Sadly no. I wasted weeks trying to find one.
Parsec Staff itself does not care at all. They wont even look at the Issue.
I suggest switching to Sunshine and Moonlight.
Hi, I found a workaround. In my case, I run Parsec in gaming mode on my Steam Deck. I connect an Xbox One controller and Parsec detects like if two controllers were connected. Once you connect to the remote windows host and press one of the controller buttons, it detects two controllers as well. One works fine with all the buttons and the other doesn't. You have to uninstall the one that is not working fine from the windows device manager. Unfortunately, you have to do it everytime you reconnect and it is challenging to find which one it is. Same with a Stadia controller. I hope it helps.
Just use Sunshine with Moonlight.
Parsecs development seriously slowed down to a crawl and community support is non-existend sice Unity3D bought them.
