Anyone know how to fix this? I'm using the Steam version, in case that's relevant.

    Likely never will. Be happy with what you got...it took about a year for controller support to officially show up at all.

    I don't think there is a fix. I use a controller but until my character loads, I use the mouse.

    I get the feeling they just haven't realized they didn't link the functions to that section of the game.

    Stuff can go over hundreds of people's heads at the same time.

    Ditto character creation, add-on settings, control binds, etc. It's really shabby, but will probably never be fixed.

    This is why I keep a wireless keyboard and mouse handy... the controller works great for general gameplay but I prefer kb/mouse for menu options. I use a couple of addons that have made seemless controller/KB-MS switching seemless... Advance Disable Controller UI and Arch's Enhanced Gamepad.

    Since this thread is two years old we will be closing the discussion. You can start a new thread if there are no recent discussions available. The article below has troubleshooting for when a controller is not working on your PC version of ESO.

    Why isn’t my controller working when playing The Elder Scrolls Online on PC / Mac?
