thank you so much! The German part doesn't worry me too much, I can use a translator / the other thread I found here that goes through most of the process to get it working. Well I've gotten pretty far already. I just need to learn how to repack the file and I should be good to go.
thanks again

Edit: I figured out how to edit the f-key successfully now. I've been moving it all over the screen trying different variations. Looks like it's possible to even make the UI go into widescreen but you have to edit the driving.win file in a hex editor and I'm not very familiar with editing such things as that lol
