Would I creasing the dead zone on the left stick theoretically make it so you have to move the stick more to go into a jog/run? I like to walk around and as it stands you can only walk on controller by moving the stick the slightest bit before your character to auto runs and I hate it when I’m trying to take in the scenery.
i know this convo is old but damn THANKS. i been looking for walking on controller forever. i can press the left joystick all the way forward and player will walk. left thumbstick DeadzoneMax 2.0 he just walks. only way to run is to press down on sprint. great deadzone mod. thank you. EDIT: downside is you cant sprint. EDIT2x: 1.7 is perfect for walk no jog. you can tilt all the way up and walk and you can press on the thumbstick to sprint.
Thanks for this. I've got an issue with the Left Thumb stick too, even mistaking it for an undocumented "auto-walk-feature" for the first couple hours of playing.Very annoying.Shame on the developers not including a slider in the options menu. Granted, it's the first Game I've tried with my new Controller ( Series X pad ) which is showing this issue. I've set fLThumbDeadzone=0.5 and it's working fine now.
I don't know if this mod will fix this issue BUT :
I'm on PC using a Controller, is it just me? But when scrolling through menus on controller, the scroll skips around; Even on the D-Pad, the scrolling skips. I have to activate my mouse just to click on stuff. I hope this is just an early access thing and a Day one patch is released on sep 6th.
Example : list of items, Left thumbstick down, skips the second item and goes to the 3rd item.
I'm experiencing the exact same problem as OP, and I am playing on Game Pass, so it's not a Steam Input issue. I'm using DS4Windows software to connect my dual shock controller. Can you suggest any workaround?
If you're on Win 11, try it without running DS4Windows and just connect your controller to Bluetooth thru windows. Look in your notifications tab on the taskbar to see if "wireless Controller" is showing under the Bluetooth icon. If it is, it should work natively in Starfield. I was getting the double input issues and after trying various settings in DS4W, out of desperation I tried it without DS4W and I haven't had any issues since. Btw, I'm using a DS4. I have no idea if this works with a PS5 controller. Hope this helps.
i changed deadzone to 0 for my right stick (aim) and it did nothing even 0.01 or 0.1 still didnt decrease it at all... my deadzone is too big i want it to be more sensitive...
i was looking in the game settings for this, but silly me, bethesda didnt even added a bright or gamma slider, why they would add something so basic like dead zones for contrlers XD thank you so much now i can play with my old controller once more :D
