I've been trying to get my xbox one controller to link to minecraft, so far I have been success in linking it to steam but thats as far as I can get. The game itself won't be controlled from the controller. Any tips or easier ways?

FYI this is the first time I've used steam or played a game on a computer.

Do you have an adapter plugged in ?


This is what I found online , hopefully it helps you out.


Open Steam, choose Games from the top bar and then Add a Non-Steam game to my Library...
Then, in your Library, find Minecraft, and (with your controller connected) right click it and choose Edit Steam Controller Configuration.
Set all of your buttons to their keyboard equivalents.



Now Launch Minecraft via steam. It'll take you to the normal minecraft launcher, but don't worry.

The controller still works no problem once you start the actual game.
You may want to lower your mouse sensitivity in game once you start, because the joysticks really make you look around fast.

If you have a laptop with bluetooth and an Xbox controller that has it too, you can pair it via that. If not, you need an Xbox adapter.

I actually ran into a similar issue not too long ago myself. Through my research I've found that Minecraft on PC doesn't support controllers so if you want to use it with a controller you have to download a program that will essentially send your xbox controls into the computer as keyboard/mouse input. The thing I used to get around it was called like Xpadder or Xpad or something like that.
