  • Remove all physical controllers and joysticks.
  • Disable all virtual controllers
    • These can be included in software for gaming mice and keyboards
    • Disable Unified Remote.
    • Disable virtual adapter for 3DConnexion devices.
  • To disable controller support, edit <path-to-game>\UDKGame\Config\UDKEngine.ini and change AllowJoystickInput=1 to AllowJoystickInput=0. Save your changes.
