    Need Help

    I for some reason can't get my controller to work on MLB 2K11. I have it for the PC and have a Steel Series 3GC controller. It works ok in Exhibition mode, but doesn't work for My Player mode. Also, the settings are never saved, even though I save them.

    Is there something I'm missing? A certain software or something? And yes, I have installed the drivers for the controller.

    If it works in exhibition mode, then it must be a settings issue. One thing I've noticed is the game sometimes loads a default no-name profile (usually P5) when it starts up, instead on my personal P1 profile. So that's one thing to check if you're noticing your settings are mysteriously changing.

      That's the thing.

      I was playing My Player mode, and when I went up to bat, I noticed I couldn't swing. I went into my setting and saw they were set to the default settings. No biggie; I will just set them back. After I set them to what settings I like, and continued the game, the settings STILL didn't work. They were saved, but didn't work. I'm a bit upset since I really want to play my game. :/

          If your controller is working when at the startup, dont touch your mouse or keyboard until you get into a game. If you saved a myplayer game by using the keyboard to get into the menus, you might have to finish that game with the keys in order for the controller to work again...

          try that out and see if it works.

            Could be you have a piece of hardware that simply isn't compatable. I bought a new Microsoft mouse with programmable buttons for my laptop several weeks ago, and for the life of me I couldn't get it to work with certain games. Worked fine for some, but not the two games I specifically bought it for. So I had to go back to my old mouse.

              You know... This actually sounds like a reasonable fix. I will try it asap and let you know if it works.

              Naw it's compatible. It has worked for all my games besides this little bug. But thanks for the suggestion.
