[B3.1][Stadium] 360 Controller steers left at start

[maikkel]

In 90% of all races the wheels will steer completely left at the start until I start Input with my XBox 360 controller. It's not the keyboard interfering, I changed the key bindings to several different values. It only happens right at the start of a race or when I restart the race or reset to checkpoint. While racing everything works fine. What might be the problem?

I also had this problem on previous Trackmania titles.

But the solution is pretty simple:

When the countdown starts move your stick to the left and to the right, then release it and then you should start normally straight forward

Thanks, this works. It's a bit annoying, but I think I'll get used to it. I wonder if it's a bug in the game or the controller (haven't used it anywhere else yet).

Same thing happened to me in older versions of Trackmania, it is a bug in game. Nothing really that drastic tho.

It's a bug with the game, not with the Controller.

I own a XBOX 360 Controller and a XBOX 360 Limited Edition Controller and another cheap Logitech Controller.All have this problem in TMN, TMNF, TMUF, TMS, TMO and TM2 Stadium + Canyon

I think it occurs when you finish your last race with the stick going to any direction. Now Trackmania thinks you still have this position even if your stick is released, but I don't know why.

Yeah it's quite annoying.. hope they can fix it this time though!

This often happens to me also with a rumblepad2 when i have Xfire and/or steam ingame

there is no bug just increase the dead zone in options

Actually, there was a bug, at least in TMF version, i know that, because when was happening to me, car just starts to corner by itself (slightly), and even if i do reset (at start line), it would continue to act like that, while checking in control panel at that time, it clearly shows that axis are in center.

Tho, after i changed controller (and PC, i can't recall), it didn't happened again, and in past two days playing TM Stadium, it didn't happened, for TMF, i don't know, so maybe there is something with some board/controllers.

Have the same problem with 3 different XBOX360 pads... One recently bought have the same issue...
Hope someone from Nadeo can look into this problem!
