I tried to use my keyboard... someway... as I do in other games... (I have a PS4 and a keyboard...) but no luck... and then.. I found this curious thread on the official ACC Kunos Forum:
https://www.assettocorsa.net/forum/...en-features-with-controls-and-keyboard.65079/
For those that my not have acces it says:
XB1 Hidden features with controls and keyboard
First off thank you Kunos!! I have never enjoyed a racing game on xbox so much (yes even with 30fps) but moving on...
So firstly although RS is bound to viewing left and right, up and down are not used. These can still be used for mappings, I use it to increase and decrease ABS, even though they don't show as being bound.
Secondly keyboards are recognised although they too do not allow mapping and I can use one to navigate the menus which seems interesting. So I started playing around trying to get it to work and I stumbled across something very promising. KEYBOARDS WORK! You cant change the mappings but default mappings are supplied and whats more they can be found in game! Pressing F2 allowed me to cycle through the HUD displays and what did I find... Blank, Basic HUD, Help, Timetable and Broadcasting!!! I'll explain each below:
Blank is as expected, it removes all HUD displays except a CPU warning that appears in the top right. (More evidence of how taxing this game is!)
Basic HUD is as expected, default display that would appear to be all that is possible without a keyboard.
Help is the gem! It overlays all the preset keyboard bindings which for the most part all work! This includes camera movement!! Thats right you can change the seat position its in game!! FOV is still locked as to be expected but hopefully changing seat position can alleviate some problems for some people. VR options are still here also leading me to believe this was all stuff bought in from the port somewhat unknowingly.
Timetable is believe should overlay the timetable results seen at the garage? However this has an issue of the table itself being tiny in the center of the screen as if the resolution has not been synced for this feature although the other overlay parts on this screen appear to function normally.
Broadcasting is as expected that I believe is designed for streaming and spectating races on PC.
All in all this is very interesting and goes some way to show just how much of a copy this port is. It gives me hope these features can be utilised further, PLEASE LET ME MAP KEYBOARD KEYS, and having the timetable screen working would be so useful. Removing the CPU warning in the blank screen would be very nice as this is the view I typically use in other games only showing the HUD to get information needed at the time (Helps with the load and smoothness I believe). All I ask is please don't close this part of the game off Kunos although I understand this may open up some unexpected vulnerabilities, and open it up further to make this game as complete as I believe it really can be.
Again thank you Kunos I know i'm going to love this game for years to come.
That is only the start of the trhead... reading through it... I discovered that it only works with XBOX!!!!!
