Help with throttle and brake

[Edited]

Hi,

my question is how I setup throttle and brake on Tracer Roadster 4in1?

I setup steering just rotate wheel and for shift up, down use shifter, but can't use pedals or wheel for throttle and brake, or any other button on wheel. How can I fix it?

Thank you for answer and help.

Dont know if it could solve your problems:

Try checking with the wheel driver too:

Try changing usb port too and checking at Steam Bigpicture if controller is on or off and change its state to see if something changes.

Hi, I have drivers from website installed. If I test my controller on WinOS all buttons, steering and pedals works fine.
In settings on steam my controller is detected. On other simulation game I don't have problems with it, only on ACC.
On screenshot you can see game detected my controller but only 3 buttons.

I really dont have idea of how to help as I could not find more info at google and I dont have the same wheel as you, neither had this problem at ACC (only problem I had with my G29 was at AC where shift up and shift down was not being assigned by AC, but I could solve with Content Manager, still there is nothing like that for ACC).

What is happening?
You click over throttle and brake but it dont let you assign or it let you assign but just wont read your throttle and brake pedals?

Have you tried assigning your pedals to anything else, just to check if the game is reading your pedals or if the problem is with the game recognizing inputs for brake and throttle?

I know some of what I am asking you to try may sound stupid but that is how I found out AC was not recognizing any assignment just for shift up and shift down while my paddle shift I could assign for other thing but could not assign anything to shift up and shift down.

I read on ACC wiki, but unofficial they support G29 and looks like players still got problem. Here is link https://www.acc-wiki.info/wiki/Game_Settings#Controls

Yes I click first with mouse for assign it then put leg on pedal and doesn't assign it. I try both pedals together and still nothing. Try assign throttle and brake with buttons on wheel but doesn't works only two buttons works on wheel but it's for shifting.
I read few forums how people fix they controllers, but nothing works for me. Pedals works on other simulation/drivers games.

If I look for other options like ABS increase or decrease or other which can't assign too and have buttons on wheel for it... this game only for keyboard or gamepad. xD

Thank you for help.

Hope I found somewhere how looks like shemas for "controls.json" from some wheels, which got all it assign, because I try it but it reset all keys (i backup it before and keys back). :D

Ok found something: https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/acc-g29-controls-json.26804/updates#resource-update-57042 it's for your controller.

does your wheel use axis or buttons for brake and throttle?
you can check this in wheel properties on control panel/devices and printers.


ACC accept only axis (or sliders) for throttle and brake.

one way to map buttons for throttle and brake in ACC is using x360ce (or a similar emulator) to map the buttons for brake and throttle to the emulated xbox controller trigger or right stick axis.
though even if you trick the game to think you use axis, you'll still using buttons mapped as axis and is very difficult to play it.

Well, yes, I guess if he select gamepad the FFB will convey only "rumble effects", like it would if the wheel was a gamepad.

he is not have to select gamepad. in the wheel settings ACC will accept any axis input from any controller (real or emulated).

see here:

he is gonna map in x360ce (or in steam controller since he said his wheel is recognized by steam) only the buttons ACC not accepting.
i dont think his wheel has FFB but anyway is better not to map the steering in the emulator (just the gas/brake or any other buttons not recognized in the wheel settings) cause as i see he has 270 degrees of rotation and even is not ideal is way better than the (virtual) gamepad stick.

he can also use a more advanced emulators like vJoy (with joystick gremlin plugin) and do almost anything he wants (i.e. adding force feedback effects, deadzones, antideadzones, split axis, curved axis, virtual axis, macros etc)
sorry for my bad english

Oh, never tried to do it (well, never needed too, my G29 work fine).
Good info.

i tried it when i got the t300RS with the crappy plastic 2 pedals. have a G920 and i plug them both in the pc using the logitech pedals. (i know there are some kits to plug them directly in the t300 or make them usb but i want to sell the g920 and i dont want cutting the cable to mod it)
i plan to get the USB thrustmaster pedals with the loadcell brake and until is available again in my country this strange combination works well LOL

BTW, AC1 and ACC are the only games i know that dont accept mapping buttons for throttle and brake. right choice IMO because is better to play with a gamepad stick and triggers with axis than a wheel with buttons instead of axis for brake and gas.

so, If OP has indeed a wheel with buttons is better to play with a gamepad or he will spin or lock the brakes in every corner...
