Remove Joystick Assignment "Open Menu'
Remove Joystick Assignment "Open Menu'
Hi,
I am trying to delete a joystick assignment for the command "open menu" which has been automatically assigned. The options menu says this action can't be assigned to a joystick/ gamepad button but seems to have assigned one by default anyway which I can't remove. How do I delete this assignment, I want to use the button (thrustmaster gear lever) for something useful and if I try to delete it offers to set everything to default, which I obviously do not want to do.
I have temporarily solved the issue by deleting the file 'input binding.xml' and then plugging in a gamepad I will never use before running the game with my wheel, pedal and gear lever unplugged. It then creates a new input binding.xml file and assigns the "open menu" command to one of the buttons on this gamepad. I then save game settings, remove the gamepad and boot with the actual joysticks, wheel, pedals and gear lever I am going to use to play. The command "open menu" stays permanently bound to a button on the gamepad that will never actually be plugged in and used. This workaround is working so far but is there a proper fix, like editing a config file to remove the assignment which I assume is a software bug?
Regards
Mike

You could delete the binding in the inputbindings.xml file, and that way free up the button

There's a difference by deleting the file and editing it

Re: Remove Joystick Assignment "Open Menu'
Thanks for the reply. Editing the file would be my first choice but I couldn't find the right binding entry to delete. A text search for 'Open Menu' gave no result. Could you tell me the right entry in the file to edit.

Err. You tell me:-)
Re: Remove Joystick Assignment "Open Menu'
Well, there are different "menus" in the game ...
Is it the menu that you access by pressing the escape button on your keyboard?
<actionBinding action="MENU">
<binding device="KB_MOUSE_DEFAULT" input="KEY_esc" axisComponent="+" neutralInput="0" index="1"/>
<binding device="0_XINPUT_GAMEPAD" input="BUTTON_10" axisComponent="+" neutralInput="0" index="1"/>
<binding device="KB_MOUSE_DEFAULT" input="MOUSE_BUTTON_X1" axisComponent="+" neutralInput="0" index="3"/>
If so, I would delete the line marked in red if I wanted to remove the input assigned to my gamepad in this case.
