Controller - LT and RT same axis?

Post by motokid499 »

Alot of controllers are like this. All the logitech controllers, and the xbox 360 controller for windows.. LT and RT are assigned on the same axis, just negative and positive. This causes issues when using both triggers at once. If i am using LT then RT wont work, it is same vice versa. I am just wondering how you guys overcame this? to make it possible to use both the left and right trigger at the same time. Im sure someone has firgured it out, seeing the well known mxs corner technique to use front brake in the apex of the corner, giving the front wheel traction at the same time as lifting weight off the back tire to quickly gas out and spin around. I have always done this, i cannot play mxs without this technique. But i have a new controller, and LT AND RT ARE ASSIGNED TO THE SAME DAMN AXIS! anyone know a mapping program or something? im sure someone knows the fix!
Thanks!

I think its a game thing, not sure I was talking to a guy and he said the game has to allow it. I'm not really sure though.

I used to do it all the time on my ps3 controller. I cannot play mxs without doing this. And it is not a game thing, All games the triggers are mapped on the same axis. I used to use Motioninjoy's DS3 tool, but it recently stopped working. i spent a week trying to firgure out why. it wasnt just on one pc, it happened on both of my pc, and a buddies pc. so i bought a plug and play controller, now back to the same problem. frikin dumbass makers map the triggers to the same axis!
