I have the GOG version of Hollow Knight and i play using a Dualshock 4 (PlayStation 4) controller, remapped via AntiMicroX to send keyboard inputs instead of controller inputs.

I have it set up this way because Hollow Knight doesn’t support this controller. That is, it supports it enough to know that i have a controller plugged in and to sometimes override my controls with the default gamepad controls, but it doesn’t support it enough for me to rebind controls or consistently rely on controller input.

The game is unplayable with some buttons changing at random times, so i’d like to either make it work with my controller or make it ignore my controller. I’m fine with installing a mod for this if i have to, but at a glance i couldn’t find any mods for this. Is there a way to make this work?

Alternatively, what would i change in ~/.config/unity3d/Team Cherry/prefs to disable all the buttons on this controller?

    Okay. This sounds very strange, but I had a similar issue with the nintendo switch pro controller and binding of isaac. I played around with antimicrox, but the real solution I found was to launch steam and leave it running. Then, my pro controller would magically work.

    I didn’t have to launch the game via steam either, which is what made it even stranger to me.
