Here's how to get more than 3 devices working in rfactor

[neverender158]

With David upgrading his TX wheel to avoid the 3 device issue with rfactor I remembered reading about a program called xpadder that could help.

So last night I was chatting with Jeff on the server about a t500, tx and t300 dashboard from simracing hardware.  He mentioned that he had a button box but cant use it because of the 3 device limit. So I sent him a link to xpadder and then did a little more searching and found an interesting thread. I thought I would share this with the group in case anybody else was running into this. I have not tried any of this since I don't have an issue since I only have 3 devices.

Here is the thread from race department that might also help using different software

Cool, I'd heard about this workaround but never looked into it.

Just for completeness I'll mention that the Steam version of rF1 extended the controller limit (to 6 maybe?).

I know not many use Rfactor one anymore but I just wanted to say thanks for posting this and it works. I have a Thrustmaster 458 wheel, Fanatec clubsport peddles , DSD shifter and a button box.

Great news! Glad it worked for you.
