    Hi,
    my Dualshock 3 supports pressure sensitivity on almost all the buttons and my drivers also support this but why BeamNG doesn't recognize it. For example my clutch is assigned to L1 and it is pressure sensitive but BeamNG only recognizes it as on or off.

    beamng supports both playstation 4 and 3 controllers without the need for other software. Though in this case i'm not sure.

    but windows doesn't i don't think, its named as a PS3 controller which BeamNG.drive picks up on but i think it is an Xinput device (XBOX input) which the api doesn't have support for pressure sensitivity

    This is the current support status: http://wiki.beamng.com/Controller_support#Sony
    If 3rd party software for PS3 gamepads output analog values for those buttons, then BeamNG should pick them up correctly.
    If 3rd party software presents those buttons as binary values on/off (for example if it emulates an XBox controller with no pressure buttons), then BeamNG cannot do anything about it.
