Controller calibration issues

rbedsole · January 2016

Ok so this isn't exactly ESO related although I have had issues playing the game with a controller on pc. I have an xbox one controller and a third party xbox 360 controller and when calibrating BOTH of them they're a little off which in some games makes them near impossible to play is there any way I can fix this

It could very well be that since they are two different controllers, that you may not be able to get them to feel and act exactly the same way.

sorry I meant that neither one of them are calibrated right when i go to the calibration screen the left analog stick on both of them are slightly to the left and they seem a little touchy.

Ahh, the touchy part I might be able to help with. Not sure on the specifics for this game (as I don't use a controller) but you want to fiddle with the Acceleration and or Sensitivity settings. I think the Sensitivity is done in the Game Options, but the Acceleration is done with INI tweaks (at least in most games it is). Try the Sensitivity settings first. Anything I have seen on Acceleration fixes were from before the controller support was added, so not sure how applicable those are. Heck, acceleration might even be in game options too now.

As for the stick being to the left, this is about the only thing I have found, but it requires surgery to fix. Also, I don't think it's needed if your not getting a "drift" in the game where the characters are veering left as you walk.

On the PS controllers there is a little button you have to use a paper clip to press that resets the controller, not sure if the MS controllers have this.
