    Howdy All:

    Well I had my Fanatec ClubSport 2.0 Servo base with the v1 Universal HUB working for about a week.

    Then the day before the update_1.5 (Wednesday) was to be released, the game would NOT load with the x360ce files in the game folder!

    If I removed the x360ce files from the game folder then the game would run. I tried to see if I could maybe tweak the x360ce files and get it to work again!

    Unfortunately I was unable to get things working again.

    Even tried again today after the update and reading this post.

    But not only is the x360ce NOT working, the update KILLED my FPS.

    Does NOT matter what resolution I run the game @ I'm only getting 20-22 FPS.

    Before the update I had 30-35 FPS @ 2160P.

    Now even 1080P is only getting 20-22 FPS as well.

    The only thing that changed on my system from the Tuesday night (with working wheel) to Wednesday afternoon, was that Win10Pro-x64 got a few updates.

    Sorry I can't recall what the wins' updates were.

    Anyways that my encounter with x360ce and now with this UNPLAYABLE game I have!

  • @EA_Barryit works for me(Logitech G29) but is not the right thing...no clutch no shifter..., plz implement the wheel support so we enjoy the game as we did in the past

  • Yeah sorry, I don't have a shifter so I don't know what the mapping would be for that. Right now I have the shifter pedal (left) set to act as a break (as I don't like how stiff the center pedal is) and I have the brake pedal (center) mapped to looking back (although this isn't great because for some reason you can't accelerate and look back at the same time :/ )

    Anyway I'm sure if you mess around with the different slider numbers you could tune it to your liking. Although I don't know if there are xBox controller buttons set for shifting gears so you might be out of luck...

    I totally agree with you though any respectable racing game maker should  support multiple racing wheels for enthusiasts like ourselves. Luckily our wheel (G29) is apparently the only one that will receive support (I heard it's supposed to arrive this month???) and I can't wait to have it fully supported!

  • I was able to apply the update yesterday and still use x360ce. The first time I started the game, my wheel was not recognized but all I did was, quit the game, unplug and replug my wheel and restarted the game and it just worked. x360ce was opened the whole time and I could see that the controller was unplugged and replugged in it. Hope this helps... (but it sounds like you are having a different issue)

  • @EA_Barry  This doesn't get EA or Ghost off the hook. It takes quite a bit of time to get it just right. THIS IS YOUR JOB, NOT OURS! Now get off your duff and fix this mess! Add wheel support and fix the bugs. 

  • Well, x360ce does not work anymore after last update (the one that fixed the paint and no more entering in garage by mistake).I use a logitech joystick , the"logitech extreme 3d pro  ".I had x360ce properly configured and working until yesterday (29 jan 2020).I had to go for something else (xoutput 3.26, which really don't like ).My question is, why EA doesn't learn from ubisoft ??In both crew 1 and crew 2 i can bind keys to my logitech whitout any aditional software, so don't tell me that is because my joystick is old when other game companies still support certain models that have dinput and not xinput in 2020.And let me make it clear, the xbox gamepad is a piece of * controller ! If i could have return yesterday the game, I WOULD !

  • Just try to uncheck combined padel check box and run the game. Other same settings. Worked for me.
