Car will not move

[adamfrombuffalo]

My car will not move from pit in a test session. I mapped an XBOX controller. The problem was that clutch and brake were both fully engaged, but I managed to fix clutch. Brake is fully engaged now regardless of where I map it. I've spent an hour trying to find anyone else with this issue, but I can't. Really want to actually drive a car at some point.

have you tired just pressing the throttle?

[adamfrombuffalo]

Yes, that engages throttle but does not release brake.

[Langowski]

Are you reporting as combined pedals?

[adamfrombuffalo]

I do not know what that means. Basically I'm using an Xbox 360 wired controller for a few weeks until my racing wheel comes. I'm switching it with a PS3 controller to see if that works...I'll report back with results.

[adamfrombuffalo]

Same issue when using a PS3 controller. Am I missing something here?

[holopaisenteemu]

I had the same issue. Dunno for sure what fixed it. I updated the driver after deliberately rolling back to prev version. Or might have been rebooting the machine.
How did you map the controller? Wheres your brake and accelerator?

[adamfrombuffalo]

Brake is left trigger, gas is right trigger. I'm going to reboot because I haven't done that yet...lol.

when configuring an xbox controller there is a little checkbox that says 'this is a gamepad' or something, make sure to check that off.

What can happen, as seth is saying, is that you're using a "combined" throttle.

So iRacers typically so a wheel and pedals, so for me this would be

Clutch - Axis 0 <>
Brake - Axis 1 <>
Throttle - Axis 2 <>

But for you yours would probably be

Throttle - Axis 0 <
Brake - Axis 0 >

On the xbox controller they use a weird system of "Combining" the 2 triggers into a single Axis (I think it refers to it as RX or something like that)

There's a way to resolve it but I really do forget. Just giving you an idea of what's happening. :)

same thing for me i cant move but will rev

[Cheeseburger Walrus]

select clutch assistance to anti stall clutch should help

[Cheeseburger Walrus]

also make sure you are in gear, car will not move if in N, if not manual make sure auto shifting is selected

[Oriflame]

cannot get it to work at all for me either
