    See those views with no answers? If you come for help, it's best not to dictate the conditions of how the help is to be received. ;) A little effort on your part is needed. ;)

    And..as always Google is your friend:

    (BTW DBA has a free template)

    Have you tried the official cross platform controller template? it sounds like it's just what you need.

    Thanks, but i cant find a way to get it work ;(

    Both of those solutions seem to work for other people so I think what you probably need is help working out why you can't get them to work for your game. That would require you giving a lot more info on what the problem is though.

    I will try it again, and come back to you later

    I used the official cross platform version when I first started GS, it worked perfect.

    But did you already made a project and just put the template in your game? or did you start off with it?

    I implemented the cross platform thumbstick into one of my games. It took me longer than I'd like to admit, and required a LOT of attention to all the attributes and expressions. I tried it probably 50 times before I got it to work - there was always one little thing I'd missed.

    I ended up going for a different control style and removing it ~X(

    I started with it, and built from there.

    Then you must have accidentally deleted or changed a part of it, as it will have been working when you started :D

    Yeah cuz i know it is easier to start with it ;)

    i have tried that, but adding it to the game is a lot of work!

    Nobody ever said gamedev was easy! ;)

    Good luck with it!
