KBDRacer 2: Electric Boogaloo‮‭

Like its predecessor, KBDRacer, KBDRacer2, too aims to provide a more agile, yet more detailed racing game control scheme than; while still remaining at least as ergonomic as: "WASD."

The main idea is to minimize the need for "key releases" when it comes to the reflexive, urgent inputs.

Getting Started

  1. Install vJoy, and have at least the "vJoy Device #1" created, working.

  2. Extract the KBDRacer2.exe file and run it.

Note

  • The linked vJoy installer above supports Windows 11 too, yes.

  • Once running, it will create a System Tray icon. —Right click on it -> "Exit" to exit.

  • Run it as Administrator if your game is also running as Administrator.

  • Make sure your "vJoy Device #1" has at least "16" buttons enabled! —Why? Because.

Additionally,

In-Game Input Configuration

  • As this script is for controlling the "vJoy Device #1", you should have that device among your gamepad/joystick inputs in your game: Configure that there, not the in-game keyboard inputs!

  • Can't set some buttons in your game? Use the "Input Test" version for these. —See: vJoy Input Test

  • Curious why the Ry, Rx, X axes? See: AXES🪓🪓🪓

Custom System Tray icon

  • Place an .ico file named KBDRacer2.ico in the same directory as the .exe file.

Usage

See: RELEASES

Important

Run it as Administrator if your game is also running as Administrator.

Tip

You can use Task Scheduler for this, and create a Desktop Shortcut for the task too, btw. —Click here for how.
