v1.1.0 Keyboard

FH2Mouse is now FH2 Mouse & Keyboard: on top of the mouse cursor, you can now drive and use the menus with the keyboard, with no controller plugged in at all.

Drive with the keyboard

Key	While driving	In the menus
W / S	Gas / brake (and reverse)
← / →	Steer	Left / right
↑ / ↓		Up / down (hold to repeat)
Page Up / Page Down		Previous / next tab
Enter	Enter garage (and other HUD prompts)	Select
Esc	Pause	Back
Space	Handbrake
A / Z	Shift up / down (manual gearbox)
Left Alt	Clutch
C	Change camera
Right Ctrl	Look back
R	Rewind
M	Map
P	Photo mode
, / .	Previous / next radio station
Left Ctrl	Nitro, with the FnFNitro mod installed

• The driving keys feed the game's own controls directly, not a virtual controller. They only work while you're driving, so W in photo mode still moves the camera, and one key can do one thing while driving and another in menus (Esc pauses while driving and goes back in menus).
• The menu keys work everywhere a pad's buttons do, including the pause menu's tile grid, the map, rewind, photo mode and dialogs.

Change any key in the game

Pause → Settings → MODS now has a "Key:" row for every action. Use left/right to pick a key; the change takes effect immediately and is saved. "Keyboard controls" turns them all off. You can also edit the new [Keyboard] section in FH2Mouse\FH2Mouse.ini, which accepts any key and more than one key per action. An existing ini gets the section added the first time 1.1.0 starts.

Play without a controller

• Signing in: press Enter on the title screen. You no longer get "Sign in needed" without a pad.
• If your controller disconnects mid-game (unplugged, flat batteries): no "Controller disconnected" message and no forced pause; just keep playing on the keyboard. Plug a pad back in and the game asks for its A to pair it again, as usual.
• With a controller: it works exactly as before, and you can switch between pad, mouse and keyboard at any time.

FnFNitro

If the FnFNitro mod is installed, Left Ctrl fires nitro. It follows whatever NitroButton FnFNitro is set to, and needs no controller.

Installing

As before: extract the zip into your Azimuth folder (the one with azimuth.exe). This release ships FH2 Mod Platform 2.8.0 (DWrite.dll), which the key rows in the MODS tab need. Your settings and the file names (fh2-mods\FH2Mouse.dll, FH2Mouse\FH2Mouse.ini) are unchanged.
