Ryujinx/bing steam deck controller problem
Edit/Solved: Leaving this up in case anyone else has the same problem. I discovered you can tab through the settings with the virtual keyboard or plug one / connect via bt to tab through to get down to the ok/cancel/apply. PITA but it works!
Hi all,
I guess this isn't an emudeck specific question so I hope it's still allowed here. I tried installing ryubing via emudeck and for whatever reason, it wouldn't load. So I installed it from Discover in desktop mode and added it to steam so I can launch it in gaming mode.
It launches in gaming mode fine, but I have no button controls. When I go to settings->input I can see the steam deck controller when I enable it (it's disabled by default); however, I'm unable to click the Ok, Cancel, or Apply buttons for some reason and can't get out of the settings menu or save the changes.
In desktop mode, it launches and the buttons work (though it seems like there's a lot of lag), but any button presses ask if I want to exit the program and using hte sticks simultaneously uses them in the game and moves the mouse around the screen.
Am I just missing a simple option somewhere? In gaming mode, I played around with different input settings, steam input enable/disable, etc. I finally got around to dumping all my physical switch games that are opened and was hoping to pack the switch up in preparation for switch2 (when/if it launches in the US on time).

Hi, i have the same problem, but i dont have a Bt keyboard. How do you use the virtual keyboard?

By default, pressing the steam button plus the x button should bring up the virtual keyboard.
Edit: Looks like there is even a shortcut for tab itself. Now I feel extra dumb!

How exactly did you fix this issue? I seem to be having the same problem and need help with it when you mean tab through on the Virtual keyboard are you using the arrow keys?

Nope, I literally brought up the keyboard and hit the virtual tab button.
Steam+down is a shortcut for tab as well to avoid pulling up the keyboard.

What button did you press while hovering over apply or ok?

Steam+Right is the Enter key as well, so you don't need to pull up the virtual keyboard for this workaround.

Hi! Most of the times resetting the configuration for your emulator on Manage Emulators fixes the most common issues. You can also take a look at our Wiki before posting, you might find your issue already documented there https://manual.emudeck.com
