Is it possible to setup a controller for manual transmission in vehicles?
I'm using an xbox one controller, and it didn't initially work with fivem, as I own the R* games version, so I launched it through steam for steam controller support and got my controller to work,
but I'm having difficulty trying to figure out how to get it to work with manual - whenever I enable the manual transmission in the J menu, it shifts in automatic still, and says it's in neutral on the speedometer - and, I can't seem to set my controller's X button (not home, X from the ABXY buttons) as a keybind in the FiveM keybinds to downshift... anyone have any suggestions?

update: i've managed to get into manual mode now, but I can only shift up, maybe I'm setting the keybind wrong or something
I would like to use the X button to shift down, is the correct console command for that
bind PAD_ANALOGBUTTON X "rsm_transmission -> shiftdown"?
right now, X shifts me up and only up
I would like to shift down with X and up with Bi believe if you go in settings > keybinds > fivem
you would find it

I have rebound these - but I can only bind the B button, since the X button is to delete a keybind, the moment I try and set X as the keybind it just deletes it and leaves a "???" in its place - though I assume this is beyond the scope of RSM and is fivem/gta itself
that's the only reason that I'm even entertaining the idea of trying to keybind through the console tbh
normally, I would just rebind from the keybinds menu
I also don't believe those keybinds actually affect shifting
yeah it does sound like a engine issue, how did it get unbinded in first place 😅
oh by the way for manual mode you type /manual in chat
not the J menu that’s for steering wheel

honestly, I don't really remember what the bindings were before I started poking around with it, but I wanted manual with X to shift down and B to shift up, and I just went to bind it to that, and then started running into trivial problem after trivial problem
forgot to clarify that

i did find this out, eventually, it took me a minute to realize it though
I'm new to FiveM entirely, this is a brand new experience to me
so pardon any ignorance of basic stuff I may be looking over
no problem 🙂
no no you’re good welcome i’m glad to help

oops, I pasted an imgur link and my message was removed
firstly - thank you for the assistance 🙏 I'm in manual mode now and it's working but X and B are flipped
and inside of the settings > keybinds > fivem menu, neither of the shift up/down keybinds are set to anything at all, both of them are cleared
I just set them through the console, but it says that it's a keyboard keybind for whatever reason
IO KEYBOARD NULL rsm_transmission -> ~!shiftdown
IO KEYBOARD NULL rsm_transmission -> shiftdown
IO KEYBOARD NULL rsm_transmission -> shiftupits how rsm got it set up like
if i remember correctly

just to clarify - there's no way to change that from the client side?
the only reason that I'm so adamant about it is because I have 5-6 years of forza with the control scheme of X - down / B - up
if I just need to adjust to it, that's cool, but I was going to try to exhaust all possibilities of trying to get it configured that way before giving up, worst case maybe just swapping the steam controller layout for the game
does not seem like a way i tried searching online and couldn't find anything
conscious-sapphire•17mo ago
I had already been searching prior to this thread, but, upon one final search, I just don't think that I see any way to do it, either - oh well, all is well, I figure the steam controller workaround should be fine
rbind rsm_transmission PAD_DIGITALBUTTON RLEFT "shiftup"
rbind rsm_transmission PAD_DIGITALBUTTON RDOWN "shiftdown"
bind those in f8 🙂
