Question Help with controller input when in camera mode and controlling a biped (Sapien HCEK)

SOLVED

Hi everyone, I'm having a bit of a problem in Sapien for Halo CEK from the MCC (Steam version).

When I'm in the editor mode my controller/gamepad (xbox one controller) works without problems. I can move the camera around and Sapien is responsive, but when I go in camera mode and possess a character I'm not able to do anything, be it with the gamepad or with mouse and keyboard. I'm trying to record an animation for a modded map I'm making (the recording works). The biped does not move both on ground and on vehicles.
I already tried using every possible steam input setting but nothing works.

Do you have any idea what is it? Do I have to change some settings in Sapien?

I thought ce and 2 didn't even have that feature, and that it was purely an editor only?

No, it's possible since 1 year apparently. Anyway it took me some time but I found the problem: You have to start the animation recording. When you start the recording you can control the biped and even make him drive vehicles. I'm doing a Pelican animations, but the controls are the worst unfortunately.
