There an input.TXT file in C:R? I did not see this file.
Last night was a bust with Xpadder. Xpadder see my gas and brake pedals as triggers, but C:R still will not use the gas and brake pedals when I use config A that has the triggers as gas and brake.
I can live with the gas and brake pedals set to LSTICK_DOWN and LSTICK_UP now that I got reverse cam set to Still.
It the steering where I wish it was better because of the deadzone. I took another look at JoyToKey. If I map the keyboard keys to steering wheel. I get rid of deadzone, but then steering become to sensitive, a lot of over steering. JoyToKey has Auto Repeat option, how many times key is push a second. I was getting close to a number I could live with, but there times my wheel would quit steering the car and car just keep going straight. GRRRR So JoyToKey a no go for steering.
I'm done trying figure out something better. Game playable so I will work through career until maybe Stainless give us proper wheel support. As it stand right now, I can not recommend buying Carmageddon: Reincarnation if want to use a wheel. :(
*******************************************************
Ok, here a summary of what I'm doing to use a wheel in Carmageddon: Reincarnation. (
I big thank you goes out to starbuck for his help :) )
1. Need to edit one the controller config file. I change the Controls_Gamepad_Preset_B.TXT file to this:
//This defines a preset game controller configuration[ACCELERATE]
LSTICK_DOWN
[BRAKE]
LSTICK_UP
[STEER_LEFT]
LSTICK_LEFT
[STEER_RIGHT]
LSTICK_RIGHT
[HAND_BRAKE]
[RECOVER]
BUT_D
[REPAIR]
BUT_C
[POWERUP_SELECT_UP]
[POWERUP_SELECT_DOWN]
[POWERUP_ACTIVATE_SELECTED_ONE]
L1
L1 and R1 are the flippers behind your wheel.
2. In preset above only 3 my buttons have been assign. I use JoyToKey to map the keyboard keys I want to use to the buttons on my wheel.
You can use Logitech Profiler to get an idea what button number your buttons on your wheel are. Logitech Profiler did not show me what button to use for JoyToKey for my shifter, so I use Wreckfest wheel setup to see what button the DFGT shifter is. Button 13 and 14.
3. The steering is to sensitive for me with my DFGT wheel with a 240 degree of rotation ( what my old MOMO wheel used ). So I bump it up to 330. Feel free to play with degree rotation until you are happy with it. Go to Global Device settings.
4. If have reverse camera set to rotate, when you let off gas pedal and brake kick in, cam going to rotate. I did not like this when I still want to see what was going on ahead of me. So I change this setting to Still.
This make Carmageddon: Reincarnation playable with my DFGT wheel, but I still have to deal with the deadzone. Also keep in mind, if car get some damage or blood or oil on the wheels, car become hard to handle. Repairing car help me get my steering control back.
Now back to working my way through career mode. I unlock level 5, 11 more levels to go. C:R got me talking to my monitor,
"GET OFF ME, damn AI. I'm trying get that checkpoint ped just over there!!!!" :P
