Mac Standalone not detecting controller

Unity Engine
1

Hello,

I set up a PS3 controller on my Mac and it’s conntected via Bluetooth. I mapped all the keys in the input manager in Unity. When I build a standalone build and run it, Unity (game build) does not detect the controller at all (but it works in the Editor with I hit “Play”).

How do I get a Unity Standalone build to detect a controller?

Thanks,

Test using pc standard controller and try it.

This makes me very sad…

I seem to be having the same issue with an Xbox360 controller using Tattiebogle’s drivers. I’m going to submit a bug report.

I have the same issue, joypad works in editor and not detected in standalone, on the mac. This is with a standard pc joypad by Powerwave.

I am having the same problem. Xbox 360 controller is configured to work in Unity Editor in Mac OS X. But when I build an app, the player settings will not recognize my controller at all.

If you are running into this Unity Issue Tracker - Joystick (Xbox360) input does not work on OSX 64bit build issue then try using the 32bit build for OSX.

The fix will be available in a future version of Unity. Can’t say which one though atm.

Thank you for acknowledging this at least!

Hope it gets fixed soon :slight_smile:

We are having the same problem with Mac and PS3 controller. This happens in Unity 4.5 and 4.6b when building a 32bit and 64bit binaries.
