So i have my steering wheel working with GTA4... Its awesome. But theres one problem (actually, two but one isnt such a big deal)

Every time i press a key on the keyboard, the car will not turn right. When i turn the wheel slightly to the right, the car turns to the left instead! It will only turn to the right again, if i steer hard to the right. And then the problem comes back after i press another button.

As you can see, this is quite a problem with you are running with lights and sirens, or want to use the horn. Or if you are using a radar mod or something, where you want to press a button all the time to lock speeds in, etc. etc...

So.... My question is.

Is there a program where i can map joystick buttons to keyboard buttons (that is free of course)? That way i can have my horn, ELS lights, etc. etc. etc. mapped to the wheel, so it wont do the whole funky steering thing whenever i use a keyboard input.

I have a Logitech g25, and im using a USB keyboard (if that makes any difference)

The other problem, is that all my inputs (all the axis'), have two 100% points.

Eg: if i steer to the right (or left), at 10 degrees it is 50%, then 20 deg is 100%, but then 21% is 0%, all the way to 300 deg (where i have the wheel set up to be max rotation) is 100%. Half way between 20 and 300 would be 50%, you get what im saying?

same thing with the pedals.

I press down, and its very sensitive for the first few millimeters, then its as if i took my foot off, and increases slowly all the way to the floor.

Any ideas?

THANK YOU!

Did You install any drivers?

Drivers are all up to date.

The whole thing with button mapping would be awesome because I hate using the keyboard anyway

Hmmm, Im curious as to this as well, I really want to purchase a nice wheel on gta 4, Ill look around on google.

Yeah, the G25 is awesome, the G27 looks really good too!

I manged to map the wheel buttons to the keyboard, but it seems that whenever the game receives a keyboard input of any kind, it wont steer to the right, until i steer hard to the right. I would love to get a program to give me a 'virtual' deadzone, but i dont think thats going to happen.

Try ControlMK

Yeah, i got the buttons mapped - im using a program called joycur or something. I forget what the name is though, lol.
