contacted ea chat and they told me download fanatec 440 beta driver. doesnt work. reinstalled red legend driver, nothing. reinstalled brand new graphics drivers, nothing. made it high priority on task manager, everything is plugged in. still nothing. i don't own a shifter or anything besides the wheel so that cant be it.

  • The ThrustMaster red legend states it is compatible with PC too, so are we saying it’s not compatible with easports games? 

  • Oy, this seems to have been brought to your attention a while ago, and yet you aren't doing anything about it other than basically saying "Uuuuh, I don't know", can we please expect an update or something please cause I don't appreciate being forced to buy a new wheel if my wheel isn't broken, and works with every other racing game. ex (f1 2021, asseto corsa, nascar heat even, etc.)

    It’s not a “don’t know” response.

    The OPs wheel is unsupported.

    Before buying any game please check the supported controller list.

    Thrustmaster have not developed the driver as the product is older.

    Therefore EA/CM devs have not been able to support the controller in the current control profiles. This will be a decision based on telemetry of number of users and this decision by Thrustmaster to support only the newer product lines in their unified driver.
