    Hello forum,

    Is it possible to pass car control values (such as steering, acceleration, brake e.t.c) through internal plugin which reads data (possibly serial port) from a custom designed hardware(steering wheel, brake & acceleration paddles)?

    Thank you,
    Rahul

    No, because it would open a way to cheating.
    If you have custom designed hardware then use USB controllers to make its axes DirectInput compatible.
