Dirt 2 controller sensitivity

[patrickv]

Guys Hi.
I've finally got my hands on this game and I'm sure there are many of you out there playing it.. (or maybe not)

The problem is with the controls. I do not know what to fix to get a proper feedback from mt car. A little touch to the left/right will probably make me over steer and fail to take any corner which is probably gonna make me crash my car. So does any of you know the exact fix for either saturation / deadzone etc etc ? can't drive this car at all...

cheers

Deadzone sets how large of a movement you can make with sticks or trigger before the input increases from zero. This can be helpful if your thumbs dont rest directly in the center or there is a little bit of play in your controller's sticks.

Saturation is at the other end. It determines what % of motion is considered 100% input (an extreme example to illustrate this is that it would allow you to set it to full throttle when you only pull your trigger back 3/4 of the way). The way I had it explained to me is that it is like a deadzone on the other end (full input).

You can increase the deadzone if you feel your car is too sensitive (and vice versa) because it requires you to move your sticks more to make smaller adjustments. If you move it too far up though, it will become difficult to make minor corrections.

Sorry if this is a little unclear. Let me know if you have questions. I forget what the other settings are (if there are others...). I'll check when I play (probably later today).
