    Hello,
    I've just bought BeamNG and I wnated to use my generic usb joystick to play.
    But the problem is that the x axis and the z axis (the x is the horizontal axe of the left stick and the z is the horizontal axe of the right stick) are the same in-game. When I move the horizontal axe of the left stick, the game move also the z axis but when I move the horizontal axe of the right stick, nothing happens.
    The controller is fully functional and I play a lot of others games with using x360ce (I tried to use it but nothing happened, the game only detected the generic usb joystick)

    Please run the support.exe tool (located in your BeamNG installation directory) and post the resulting ID number back here, so I can take a look. Thanks!

    If the device has a "analog" button/led, try switching that. Those gamepads may have different operating modes, some of those modes overlap the buttons/sticks with each other on purpose.

    In any case, go to the joystick configuration in Windows Control Panel, check that all axes and buttons react correctly to your inputs. If that's showing weird stuff and you have already installed the latest drivers, then there's nothing we can do.

    I already have the analog button on and I check between the Windows Control Panel and BeamNG and there still is the problem. I join 2 videos, 1 on the Control Panel ( ) and the other on BeamNG ( )

    Thanks for the explanation and videos!
    We've managed to reproduce the same problem in one of our gamepads, so a fix will be coming in the next version.
