Broke Mah Arm

Post by HOBOS CAN FLY »

I broke my arm a few days ago and the recovery time is 4-6 weeks. I have a splint that goes from my upper arm to the base of my fingers, rendering my right arm and hand (my dominant side) immobile. This makes it impossible to hold a controller with 2 hands. I'm trying to experiment with one handed controller setups, but haven't found anything that has worked. Does anyone know of a one handed setup that works and isn't too unwieldy? Thanks.

The best I can think of that matches my controller setup is throttle would be LT, break would be LB, ofc the joystick has lean and turn, and D Pad can act as whatever you have binded for your 4 buttons on the right side of your controller. But I am gonna assume you've already tried that by now.

Otherwise, it is kinda hard to use a one handed setup. I'd try and get whatever kind of use you can with your right arm. Like a lot of things in this game, it takes a bit of time to get used to, but looks like you got some time. If only you could use a Nintendo 64 controller..... hmmmmm :roll:
