Controller configuration - Fixing the deadzone

Controller configuration - Fixing the deadzone

Sometimes the controller causes the character to move in different directions. This is most likly caused by the game having a deadzone for the left analog stick set to 0.

A good work around for this is to use steams built in controller configuration tool, i'm using the 360 controller as an example but this can be applied to PS4/SwitchPro/Steam controllers too.

Activate steam big picture mode. ( Click the “Big Picture” button featured in the top right corner in the Steam client)

Go to settings, controller settings and make sure xbox configuration support is ticked.

Navigate to Chrono trigger in steam big picture mode, go to manage game, controller configuration.

You can now set a deadzone for the Left stick, under the left stick settings go to additional settings.

I moved the slider for dead zone inner about a quarter and it seems pretty comfortable to me there.

I've also uploaded a video of the process.

nice guide.

Thanks for this. The stick still acts weird on the world map, but it now functions in dungeons. Mostly. That is good for a game that wasn't designed for a stick.

I have a slight control drift problem, but i'd put it down to the pad itself getting old

I'm not sure, I only intended this guide for modern first party controllers. I did use a generic SNES USB controller once and it did work after I set the dpad to behave like an analogue stick in chrono trigger and it seemed to work. Maybe try that? But I would seriously consider investing in an 8bitdo controller, would give you the SNES style controller you want but with better support.

It's a great guide, but unfortunately not working for me.
Background: I use a SNES controller with USB adapter, which Steam recognizes as a "SNES PC Game Pad". I had the 'up drift' problem in Chrono Trigger and tried a few things and almost messed up controller for all other games.
I somehow got defaults reset and found your guide. I tried activating Big Picture mode like you suggested and when I went into Controller settings, the game-pad was not registering (it was showing no controller plugged in). The issue was the same across several other games, but weirdly, the controller was still working exactly as it should in other games (Celeste, Mega Man Collection 1, &Cuphead.... and technically working in Chrono Trigger through the up-drift).
Any thoughts or work-arounds (other than buy a new controller)?
Thank you!

Thanks, mate! This worked great. Problem fixed.

It seems this can also be caused by having multiple USB controller devices connected simultaneously. For example, a steering wheel, pedals, or handbrake.

I just unplug it when I want to play Chrono Trigger as the connection is easy to access.

I've just been using the directional pad rather than the stick, in battle anyway.

Glad to help :)
