Controller configuration

If you want to use the DPAD for the menus and as an alternative for movement (this won't deactivate the joystick) here's what you need to do:

1. Go to Big Picture Mode

2. Go to Library and select "Final Fantasy VII"

3. Click on "Manage Game"

4. Select "Controller Configuration"

5. Select the DPAD option of the controller

6. Click on "Change Style of Input" and select "Joystick"

7. Exit and check if it worked.

The good news is this won't mess with any other controller configuration used in other games. And if you really messed up, you can always reset settings back to default. I hope this guide was helpful.
