Front Brake cancels my Throttle?

[317]

I just got a new Xbox 1 controller;

And I have my Front Brake on my top left trigger,
Throttle on my top right trigger;

And on my old Xbox 360 controller it allowed me to hold the front brake in, while also giving it gas,
so I could spin my back tire.

Now it just cancels my throttle if I have front brake engaged?

I enjoy holding my front brake and having the rear tire spin while I give it gas

Any answers for me?
Thank you

For some reason Microsoft combines the trigger axes into one axis in DirectInput which causes the problem you describe. The newer MX Simulator snapshots support XInput in addition to DirectInput so it shouldn't be a problem if you're running a snapshot less than a year old.

Not sure why the new controller would be different than the old one.

UPDATE :::::::: FIXED! Thanks to JLV!
----------------------

"It should say "Ignoring XInput device" in the DirectInput roll call. Your controller must use different GUIDs for DirectInput and XInput, which it shouldn't be doing.

Open a command prompt and do this:

c:
cd "\Program Files (x86)\MX Simulator"
set JUGL_OPTIONS=[dinput:off]
mx

If your snapshot isn't called "mx" or the install folder isn't "\Program Files (x86)\MX Simulator", use the correct values (obviously).

Once the game is running, rebind the controls and it should work. It should use XInput after that unless you re-bind anything.
