Thrustmaster T.16000M joystick not recognized

Product: F1 22
Platform:Steam-PC
Summarize your bug Thrustmaster T.16000M FCS joystick not recognized by the game
Which area is the bug/glitch in? TT
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Plug Thrustmaster T.16000M FCS joystick into USB port. Start the game. Go to the controller game settings. There won't be a profile for the T.16000M FCS joystick.
What happens when the bug occurs? In game settings, I can't find a profile for my T.16000M FCS joystick, I can't use the T.16000M FCS joystick to play the game.
What do you expect to see? I expect to see a profile for my T.16000M FCS joystick so that I can bind it and use it to play the game.

I selected TT as the area the bug/glitch is in but it occurs in every other mode. I would specify the are the bug/glitch is in as game menu or game settings.

I tried:

  • updating drivers for my joystick
  • disabling and enabling steam input
  • trying windows 10 as well as windows 11
  • reconnecting my joystick and restarting my computer

My joystick works just fine in other F1 games. I tested my joystick in F1 2018, F1 2019, F1 2020 and F1 2021 and all games worked just fine with my joystick. These games automatically detected my joystick and I had no problems while binding throttle etc.

  • I think it's unrealistic to expect support for what is essentially a flight controller.

    X360 controller is also unsupported, so there is a time where the supported controllers may exclude old or specialist controllers.

    Maybe there is a PC workaround similar to the early workaround for some of the racing pedals (virtual controllers).
