I installed via steam so no idea my orogin I'd but I am having same problems via PC Xbox controller the controls via controller function like I'm using keyboard game if I hold a key like left bumper will acknowledge keys but I have to push forward on left not stick to go reverse them left trigger followed by right trigger to go forward or back on joystick to go forward but left trigger does go forward and light trigger will reverse at 3mph max. Unmapping and remapping make no change reinstall no change verify files through origin and stream no change rewrite keybinds file no change. 

 

Edit: I also tried a separate Xbox 360 controller, different cable, 3 ports, I unplugged keyboard and mouse peripherals all no change

Hi! Sorry if it's a little late, but I just bought the game yesterday and I think I solved the problem with the PS4 controller unbinding the keys.
I made a 2 min video with the explanation but basically it is that you put all the keys with the same letter on the wheel and the keyboard.

Guys, I fixed it, just go to settings and unbind the wheel controls only, and then it works. I have my controller connected via Bluetooth so just press x on the controller for every button to unbind on the wheel, the first one will be something like left trigger 3 or something but then u just keep doing it and it moves down and unbinds everything as you go.

Thank you very much! I did the same and it worked!

So your post was from 2020. I am playing on 2022.

 

How can EA care so little about their games? This remembers me why I don't buy games on Origin.

All the above solutions did not work for me. I am using an Xbox One Elite controller Series 2 on Windows 11 Pro. The dinput and xinput hooks provided by another member have zero effect because those are 32 bit dll files and the game executable is 64 bit, so the game does not load those dll files and reads them from system32 instead.

I ended up finding a project on Github for another game with similar controller issues. I slightly modified the project and converted it to 64 bit and then I modified the config file to make it work for my setup.

 

Download: https://mega.nz/file/BvlznDDb#rBAv_YsKV-joyueQAGql0N8rOqQs8P8bbyF5d8xJuoU 
Extract dinput8.dll and dinput8.ini into the game directory, next to NFS16.exe.
Make sure the path to the original dinput8.dll in dinput8.ini is correct. If this doesn't work for you, try changing MaskXONEController to "no" or try removing the # symbols before "AllowClass" settings.

 

Good luck!
