You mean you can't just switch your controls to keyboard or gamepad on top of the controls screen and set it up to your liking? Or am I missing something here?

Are you wanting to steer with a keyboard?

 

[Witti]

This week has been the best week I've had in ACC so far. Good racing (still some crashes because public server), no blatant wrecker, ingame UI is working as it should, tire pressure + brake temps is nice, you can see your place now, it's just fun to drive.

 

[Adrian5601]

Game crash at Monza in the race with 100% damage and is no longer required by the 7.1 "save the race" menu, why ????

well since it was possibible to set up them from first release (aka 0.1) and until 0.6 with your custom ones you prefer, i feel it's a step back.
Now you are stuck in an eternal limbo where controls are changed and are completely different from what is written about then in the controls menù... It's the first update wich pissed me, along with the kamikaze AI...

 

[Jordan Dion]

Just asking.... Is there a reason why people are crashing like ****in idiot on servers?

I never saw so much guys run into others and that just keep destroying every races ive been in.

The safety score should be active on every where?

Am i the only one that race Maldonado friends?

Welcome to public server racing. You won't like it

 

[Alex Townsend]

In the contrary, I had some really good races on the public servers last night. There were a few idiots here and there, but they were kicked pretty quickly by the people administrating the server.
Had some very close battles with some guys at Monza. I know the circuit quite well so was able to keep in the top 3!
Pretty happy with that but just need to work on consistency.

yes we are aware, but it's part of a bigger job, not something we can hack in a hotfix sadly.
Hopefully you'll have a bit more patience with this.

For me online races are just getting better.

L1 T1 is becoming more acceptable and regular driving is getting more civilized. There are still some drivers who don't know how to correctly yield position on blue flag, the ones that seems don't know what the blue flag means, and the heroes that try to qualify on their out-lap.

Have not seeing intentional wrecking for a while, which is a big improvement.

 

[2stains]

and the heroes that try to qualify on their out-lap.

This is my biggest issue with public online racing! Oh and of course all the Monza servers

 

[E304LIFE]

Fantastic. Really appreciate the effort from the start...again, another early access from Kunos that delivered great value and a top shelf sim experience. It's not even finished yet.

Sure hope we can support expansion content in the future.\o/

 

[Davide Sciacca]

The VR navigation is still bugged for me. When I change the MFD page to the in car settings menu the other buttons don't work anymore. Only the shifters and the rotaries knob still work. Plus I can't change the MFD page with the button on wheel, only through the keybord.

As soon as I return to the standing page or the real track position page, all the buttons are operational again.

I use a Fanatec CSW 2.5 with McLaren Rim.

Am I the only one who have this problem?

 

[Jason Holden-Jones]

Hi Davide,

In the tuning menu on the Mclaren wheel... try changing the MPS setting to Pulse.
