    It was fairly simple. Opening up involves removing the rubber feet to undo the screws holding the bottom on.

    I literally removed the three buttons and put in my buttons/paddles. They are the same diameter so it was a straight swap

    I must say my TSC-X is such a step-up from my Raildriver I have had for some years. Good though Raildriver is, it’s not up to the feel and quality of this controller. One thing that did fox me for a bit was there were no instructions in the packaging to get the controller up and running. It says ‘ C-type connection plug and play’ but when you do nothing happens. I had to do some searching on the internet to make the controller work which now I have COBRA’s software, it is fantastic. Big thanks to COBRA for allowing use of his software and making it easy to set up the TSX-X.

    You won’t be disappointed. Worth every penny. Has reinvigorated my interest and time spent in the game.

    Hello, I'm a bit of a rookie when it comes to external controllers, so please bear with me :)
    I'm on the verge of purchasing the TSC-X, and when looking at the installation guide from CobraOne, I can see the following:

    Here's the quirk: I don't have such a Railworks.exe file on my computer (yes, I'm on Epic instead of Steam). Would that be an issue to make the TSC-X function?

    Thanks in advance for your help :)

    Hello Choo choo

    You don't need to download the TSC Controller Interface, but rather the TSW Raildriver & Joystick Interface V2.0.1.4.

    Here is a link to the TSW Raildriver & Joystick Interface V2.0.1.4 programme.
    CobraOne has made it so easy with this version that you just connect the controller, start the programme, and there are already 3 profiles in there for the TCS-X controller.

    Here is the link: https://forums.dovetailgames.com/th...joystick-interface.61440/page-18#post-1022066
