Controller triggers not working properly only on mx simulator

Post by -palm »

So, I'm having a problem where my front brake locks up when I let off the throttle. I have tried rebinding them a million times, and nothing seems to help. I also read some on the forums about the trigger values in the config, and I've messed with the values for about an hour or two and can't find a working fix.

These are my current trigger values, which are the STOCK values. I changed them back after i messed with them for awhile.
throttle_key=(0.874973,-0.874973)Controller(XboxOneForWindows) axis 2
front_brake_key=(0.062498,0.937471)Controller(XboxOneForWindows) axis 2

Also, I've used two different controllers and I have the same issue with both controllers on sim but no other games.

PLS HELP :cry:

This is a DirectInput thing. For some reason Microsoft combines the triggers in their XBox DirectInput driver. You can read more about it here.

I think your throttle might need to be a negative value
front_brake_key=(-0.062498,-0.937471)Controller(XboxOneForWindows) axis 2
