    Hey guys,

    Just wondering if TSW:FE will support the rather awesome Xbox One keyboard attachment, or any USB keyboard for that matter?

    Thanks.

    No i don't think so, just use a controller.

    Thanks for stating the obvious... My plan was to use a controller, however there are only so many buttons on the controller and a lot of extra bits to used in the game... So I was wondering if there was support for keyboards like a few other games.

    I feel like I remember something being said on keyboards...and that you could use them. Probably want a more official answer than that, of course, but I wouldn’t give up hope.

    I was thinking how great it would be if they could include chatpad support. I have mine permanently connected to my controller and having access to all those buttons would be really useful for some of the auxiliary controls.

    It's works to some degree at the moment. Same controls as the PC, but functionality doesn't work for the horn for some reason.

    Is it case you're trying to sound the horn with either the controller or keyboard attachment but you're not getting sound?

    Tried the chatpad and managed to get some of the views working with the number buttons. But not much else...howeve I was wary of messing around while doing a scenario and messing it up. I need to sit down and figure out what can be done with it. Can't believe it isn't documented?

    Don't forget that you can plug any USB keyboard into the XBox one, or get a keyboard on the XBox app on your phone or tablet. I guess if this works on the chat pad it should work on USB, and maybe on the app virtual keyboard.

    Has anyone got new info on the compatibility? I was thinking of changing to keyboard and mouse because it seems a lot easier, but if there are too many problems I might not try.

    Xbox one works with almost any USB keyboard. You only have to plug it in and it’s ready to use on TSW but mouse doesn’t work on Xbox.

    On the Xbox website they say that mouses work in certain games. So I guess TSW2 is just not part of these games ?

    That would be down to Dovetail adding in mouse controls for console. We do have better keyboard controls compared to TSW2020 but the game will still depend on keeping a controller connected.

    I use a keyboard ( USB ) on my xbox, works great, only use the controller now to move camera around the cab, as mouse support isnt there.
