That's odd, it shouldn't be the case at all...
hello, fantastic mod, however is it possible to edit the deadzone? its too much for me
I tried many of these scripts but this one is the best of all! always return to it! hope to see it added more features!
Is it me or I followed all of the steps, but my steering wheel turns left and right so fast even though

It may have been better to have asked for help, rather than rate it 4-star because of an incorrect set up. There's nothing wrong with the script. Let me know and I'll give you a hand installing.
Amazing! This feels great on my Xbox gamepad.

Do you happen to know if I can edit my brake deadzone? I guess that is a problem with vanilla gamepad controls, but I can see there is both an inner and an outer deadzone when braking which isn't the case for the throttle. It would be useful to me since I sometimes just want to touch the brake to correct my steering, but with this deadzone it is much less precise. Or rather, my feel is off since the way I do it isn't detected due to deadzone (I'm talking about a really light tap).
Pretty nice for RWD, but plays a little bit worse than "so-so" for AWD cars. Do you have documentation for your script?

I don't sorry. As mentioned, it originated from another's script, which would be the person to get in touch with.
Could you tweak it so the counter-steering is "less intrusive" and faster/more accurate? I like the assist, but I feel my corners come out a bit too "overcorrected" and not smooth, but then again maybe that's the point of the assist, idk...
its great and i can drift with it too
The most versatile gamepad FX out there, with a tiny bit of tweaking you can go from drifting to grip, to traffic racing and best any discipline you like.
This was a game changer for me as it pretty much resurrected AC. Finally as a sole gamepad user I can enjoy AC as it should have been since when I bought the damn thing 8 years ago.

My only critic is about the overcorrection. As mentioned before, I can abuse RWD cars a lot and only have severe understeer as punishment. It brought me too much confidence as the car would now never spin out because of oversteer. It felt almost as cheating in some races. On the other hand though, I can raise the bar with the AI and have some pretty competitive races making it a lot of fun.

All in all, this made the game playable and a whole lot more enjoyable for me. I hope you can keep improving it further.

Cheers and thanks for this masterpiece for us gamepad users

Love it! Makes racing much easier, and more realistic, on controller.
Love what you have done with the script, really great work!
I added the Duelsense script made by x4fab to get the adaptive triggers, it's really fun now with a ps5 controller to drive about.
there is the way to edit the counter-steer or turn it off?

You can adjust the numbered values within the script. The whole point of the script is the counter-steer - that's what makes the cars drivable.

You gave it a 3-star because of that?
My wheel broke a few days ago, and as a result all of my flightsims (pedals) and racing sims came to a screeching holt.

Then I found this, and all was well in the universe. I was giggling like mad when I started testing it.

Is there a way to dampen the effect? It's certainly a leap of an improvement. But I feel like sometimes it's too easy. I can effortlessly drift and Kind of just go insane and suffer no consequences... which is fun sometimes, but I've been really into ACE lately and it's gotten way too easy this way.

All that said, excellent work! Made the game not just playable without my wheel, but fun.
A very good assist for racing. While the default settings include gamma 100% and wheel limit 180, I have found that using gamma 125% and wheel limit 320 feels more natural and less like a console game. It gives you a better sensation of turning the wheel.
Amazing, I can finally play AC with a controller without faffing around and changing my settings every single time I drive a different car.
Its a great mod, probably the best that helps us controller players be able to play this game properly, although I do struggle with taking high speed corners like copse at silverstone, my setup is generally oversteer-y but when I turn in for the corner the wheel barely turns and understandably so because doing it without consoleFX makes the rear end super loose, this works for a lot of fast corners like maggots & becketts, campsa and pouon. I use the recommended settings listed but I tend to get annoyed by the wheel practically being still when I'm at the point of ripping the thumb grip of the joystick. Great mod all around however
This is absolutely amazing ! I'm finally enjoying AC the way it's supposed to be with a pad ! Thanks a lot for sharing this, you're a true AC legend

You're very welcome!
Works really great. You can now take all forms of corner with full confidence using this script. The fact that it always find the accurate steering limit to utilize the steered wheels' peak grip means you'll almost never unintentionally understeer from the player's input when using this mod.

My only problem with this script is that the countersteer force/assist works a bit *too* well. Usually when you take a corner with full throttle you'll still feel the (RWD) car slowly oversteering even when the steering is at peak angle for gripping. These almost never happen with this mod. The countersteer force override your input too much that it removes most of the risks of *intentionally* losing control. I wish this mod can be configured like BeamNG.Drive's Arcade Steering mod where you can configure how strong the countersteer affect your input.

Another thing, going in reverse completely breaks the steering and would not want to straighten out.

For general grip-racing (which is what I do most of the time with this game), it's really good and that's all that matters.

Totally agree with you there with the correction, which is unfortunately a side effect of the mod. Odd one with the reverse though...
