Description José Jorge 2012-03-09 09:51:17 CET
The car cannot be driven only with keyboard. This is unusable for laptop users.
Accelerate/brake/reverse are affected to up/down, so left/right keys are expected to work.

the first launch SD 2.0, the steering wheel controller is the mouse, if you want to assign the keys left/right, you should go to the player's preferences, the controller preferences (last icon on the right below the player list) and assign the buttons on this page, but by experience, the mouse is better for the steering wheel controller

Yes, maybe a real mouse, but touchpad is not better than keys ;-)
I could not find a way the edit controller preferences, and even tried editing the xml file without success. I suppose I am missing something in the GUI, but what?

Ok, I have found how to change to the keys.

Still, I feel upstream project is too geeky not using default keys of all race games I know.... I remember TORCS did that a long ago, and then switched to keyboard because of too many users feeling the game is unusable...
