I can't turn with a gamepad

I haven't played for about a week due to school and work and I just came on today to find out that I can not turn using my Xbox 360 controller. Ever button works except for the left thumb pad for turning. The controller had no problem before (the only thing that changed was today's patch from what I can tell). My first thought was that my controller was broken so I ran a test an it is working fine.

Is anyone else having this problem? and is there a fix for it? any help would be greatly appreciated! I can't stand turning with arrow keys....

 

Me nether, I think I read in the updates somewhere that they updated the lua input map so its different and i'm guessing that's where our problem is.

 

I had the same problem. I use a modified inputmap for my 360 controller and it wasn't just the name of it that changed. I redid my inputmap and it worked.

 

what exactly did you change ? I cant turn as well

 

I modified the new file without copying anything from the old one.

 

I guess lol.. but what did you modified exactly ?

 

Well, I had the bumper buttons as shifters and X/Y for slo-mo. A is clutch and B is park. Instead of copying the old one into the new inputmap I had to modify the new one without any copying.

 

You have to change this line:

Code:

%mm.bind(%device, thumblx, "D", $gp_deadzone, joy_steer);

into this

Code:

%mm.bind(%device, thumblx, "D", $gp_deadzone, steer);

(just remove the "joy_" part before the word steer)
(If you are not using a custom inputmap then I don't know why this would happen, but if you do then this is probably the answer, worked for me when I ported my old custom Xbox 360 controller inputmap to the new version)


EDIT: Here's the custom inputmap if anyone is interested:
(also the camera left/right movement is inverted from the default setting because I'm used to it being that way)

 

I'm not using a custom input map.I like the one you posted but I'm not sure how to install a new one. What folder do I put it in, and where do I find the line of code I need to change?

 

ah okay, your using the official xbox 360 input map that is already in
I have the razer onza, but ill try to do what you did but also change the name of the controller for my razer

thanks ! it worked, I used my pre-patch razer onza input map
changed the name to fit the other input maps (FD011689000000000000504944564944.inputmap -> FD011689.inputmap)
then removed joy_ from the file.
