Well,
Had to completely uninstall game and reinstall.
It detects the wheel but:
A) there is no assigning a button to "Select" or "Answer Phone" or "Dismiss". So every screen popup that blocks your ;view while driving, I have to reach to the keyboard to hit ESC, or PageUp to answer the phone, or Page Down to "Enter Mission" etc. Really frustrating. (Thankfully my G13 makes this a bit easier to manage).
B) Manual transmission support is a JOKE. I have a six speed shifter with the G25 for a reason. Drifting with the ability to directly drop gear from 5th to 3rd is so much simpler, but with linear shifting it is a royal pain. Not much a drifter though, so i just have to do that for missions. I'm more a grip driver.
All in all I like the sandbox realm, but with these configuration issues, not sure it was worth it to by the Deluxe version.
So it goes.
I pine for the era where supporting full racing consoles was a priority.
Maybe'll i'll have to upgrade to PS4 and get GT6. *shrug*
