Notice:Regarding the problem with the Zuiki controller

Thank you for playing JR EAST Train Simulator.

With the expansion of the simulator's controller support, we were adding functionality to enable the use of Zuiki controller from May of this year.However, since the update of the Steam client on September 11, there has been a problem with the controller not working properly when playing with the Zuiki controller selected in the controller settings.
The cause of the problem is currently under investigation in cooperation with Valve Corporation.

We will inform you of the situation here again after the problem is fixed or the cause is determined, so
we would appreciate it if you could wait for a while.
For customers who use the Zuiki controller,We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. We appreciate your understanding.

Thank you very much for providing us with the information related to the problem through comments on the bulletin board, etc.
Thank you for your continued support of JR EAST Train Simulator.
