    G29 in combination with PC and the switch set to PS4 in not without any problem.

    The wheel and most of the buttons work fine. Except switching gears while driving doesn't work.

    Strangly the gear buttons work to tab in the menus but while drive it doesn't work.

    The only way to play is to drive with one hand on the wheels and one hand on the arrow up button on the keyboard.

    Any solution to this very ackward problem?

    Logitech G29 Driving Force Racing Wheel USB

    FF Driver Version: 8.85.0075.0000

    I was able to get this working after having the same problem. The wheel wasn't being recognized in Payback but was working normally in NFS16. 

    • The fix in my situation was uninstalling the driver software from Device Manager, making sure to choose the one NOT labeled (HID).
    • This prompted me Yes or No to whether or not I wanted to Uninstall the driver software.
    • I selected Yes.
    • Then, I went to Start > Settings (icon) > Devices > Right clicked on Logitech G29 Driving Force Racing Wheel USB > Remove Device.
    • Uninstalled the Logitech Gaming Software
    • Restart PC
    • The wheel reacted several times doing this process, I didn't touch it.
    • Reinstalled Logitech Gaming Software.
    • Then, unplugged the USB / Plugged it back in and it prompted plug n play again, this installed said it was getting the device ready.

    I then started NFS Payback and the wheel finally worked. I noticed that the force feedback didn't kick in until I ran into another car. Then, all was working normally. 
    Please let me know if that doesn't work.
