I can’t see how you are using gamepads in the project?

Here’s a really simple project on how to access the gamepads in PlayCanvas: Gamepad API not working in Chrome - #6 by yaustar

Hi @Gurki,

I can gamepads being enabled in your PlayCanvas project settings, and testing in console I can see my gamepad attached.

Are you using any gamepad input logic in your project?

For now I’ve tryed only to deteced, if there are any gamepads pluged in, and show this in the options for input. When thats working I’ll extend the keyboard input handle them as if gamepad buttons where simply keyboard buttons…

is navigator.getGamepad() browser specific?
