Product: Need for Speed Heat Platform:Steam-PC Summarize your bug I have a Logitech G25 and the game doesn't seem to be recognizing it. I also tried getting it working with x360ce as I've seen in s...
It appears as I had a setting in Steam controllers which I shouldn't have.
After I unchecked "Generic Gamepad Configuration Support", the G25 was recognized as an unsupported steering wheel controller, but at least it let me drive.
At this point, I'm looking to remap the controls. You can do this with a keyboard or controller, but for some reason, when a steering wheel is used, control remapping goes out the window. Any reason why that might be? The G25 has more controls than the officially-supported G29, but the button mappings don't seem to be correct for the G25 in NSF: Heat.

Did you get your G25 working on need for speed heat ? I have this downloading now and have a g25 that’s the only reason I brought as some friends have it on Xbox and it is cross play but there is no way I can play this with a keyboard. Hate how you got a response 1st time as well but nothing to your further questions
Yes, I did get it working with Need for Speed Heat 😉.
The Fix
The key was both installing the Logitech G Hub (even though the G25 doesn't show up in there) and unchecking that Steam controller box.
Remapping For remapping controls, I used the official Logitech SetPoint software. You should already have it installed for the G25. I set up controls for NFS Heat, but had to force it to globally use those controls when playing the game because sometimes Windows will pop something up and SetPoint will no longer know that NFS Heat is the active Window. Possible an issue with Origin because it doesn't happen in DiRT Showdown or Driver: San Fransisco (older games from other companies).
Lastly, I needed to do one last thing. The arrow keys aren't mapped correctly on the G25, so for my config, I also mapped those to keyboard keys as there was no equivalent mapping on the G25.
Below is my exported NFS Heat config. This uses custom remapped controls; not the same as the G29, but does give a good overview of how to remap controls for NFS Heat.
When I press the gas pedal it accelerates for a fraction of a second after which the pedal is without function. The same happens with the brake pedal. Everything else works without problems. Do you have any idea what it could be?
