Help with the controller

Post by MotoMan67 »

I am using a Xbox 360 controller to play and I just noticed that my back brake wont work. I have both an xbox 360 controller and an xbox one controller I can use and both let me set my back brake button in the settings but in the game when I hit the button for the back brake my guy doesn't slow down at all. Please help!

Does the button work if its set to front brake? Or something like reverse? Does it work if rear brake is set to a different button/trigger? What is your brake settings?

The brake doesn't work if its switched to a different button so I know its not the button on the controller. I had brake set as right bumper and it won't work. Also is it good to have the brakes set as different buttons on this game or is it best to keep them separate?

You can have front/rear on the same button. It sounds like your brake strength is too low or you are running anti-lock rear. Try turning the slider all the way up and set it to normal.

I have done that but I think I know what the problem is I just don't know how to fix it. I was having trouble setting up the xbox one controller cause the triggers were messed up and someone posted a forum that had part of the game code and I messed with the coding in my personal folder for the back brake and I think thats what happened. I just don't know how to fix it. Any advice for me?

Go in the folder where your demos are safed an find the config file. Edit it with notepad++ or editor, and change this 3 lines:

Just copy and replace this there:

Code: Select all

throttle_key=(0.062500,0.937500)Controller(XboxOneForWindows) axis 5
front_brake_key=(0.062500,0.937500)Controller(XboxOneForWindows) axis 2
rear_brake_key=(0.062500,0.937500)Controller(XboxOneForWindows) axis 2
