Hello, I have 1 PC and 2 Notebooks where I can play ESO.
PC - Windows 8.1
Note1 - Windows 8.1
Note2 - Windows 10

And I have 4 wireless xbox 360 controller (from microsoft) and 2 usb receivers.

I usually play using the controller on my PC. After the Dark Brotherhood DLC update, it stopped working. I tried all 4 controlers, and both receivers... Then I tried on Note1 the same thing, and nothing. Then, I tried no Note2 that have a different windows version.. and nothing again.

Anyone is having the same problem? Is it a known issue?

Tnks in advance.
Tc.

    Having similar issues -- only it seems to be kind of spotty when it works, and when it doesn't.

    The controller (xbox360) works in Doom, Fallout 4 etc. Hitting the center button brings up the steam client.. so i know the PC sees the controller.

    I play in full screen windowed mode, and think it has something to do with the game window knowing if it has 'focus' or not. Previously if i had another window in focus while the game was loading, ESO wouldn't recognize the controller.

    It seems relogging, and occasionally using /reloadui resolves it


    But definitely since dark brotherhood came out, the controller isn't working as frequently as it used to.

    But still, c'mon guys, go borrow the code from the doom or FO team :(
