Community ManagerHey, folks
I pinged the team on this one to see if I could get an update. I know it has been a bit. They are taking a look into it. The moment I get an update, will let you know!
Thanks!
This is the first time I've heard of such a problem.
I also bought the DD Extreme when it was first released last year and replaced it with the DD Pro, and I've been using it with the PS5 without any problems.
Although it's still recognized as the DD Pro, the steering wheel is still working properly as before with Fanatec's CSL Elite Steering Wheel WRC, ClubSport Steering Wheel RS, and the ClubSport Universal Hub V2 and Podium Hub with real car steering wheels.
FFB was also 100% with the DD Pro, but with the DD Extreme it's around 80%, which is quite satisfactory.
However, the Podium Button Module Rally is still not recognized. (There is a problem with the driver software.)
I don't know the cause because this topic wasn't discussed on the Fanatec forum, but when a problem occurred I just restarted everything and got through it.

Hey, folks
Wanted to reach out and see if you can take a look at the DD Xtreme PDF on page 7, you can see where it says to change it Ps/PC compatibility mode, if that makes any type of difference?
Thanks!
No difference whatsoever for me. Inputs are showing in controls settings when I press like X or O but input isn’t registering which is my main problem and makes the game unplayable for me
It appears that if you use the DD Pro 5Nm base, it sets a compatible profile up, then plugging in the CS DD+ 15Nm base it gives you some function as it still thinks it's a DD Pro 5Nm base.
But for anyone going in dry with a CS DD+ 15Nm base, there's no function at all.
I have tried all the compatibility modes, and the best I can get is some steering and pedal function, but there's no force feedback at all, just spinning a plate with no resistance.
And still no menu functionality either.
To confirm, these are the bases we're talking about.
The official name of DD Extreme is Gran Turismo® DD Extreme.
Fanatec's product description states that this steering wheel is "designed for Gran Turismo®."
This steering wheel will not function properly, such as with button mapping, in other PlayStation racing games.
I think that racing games such as F1 use a formula style steering wheel.
I recommend using a rally style steering wheel for rally games as it w@TA27_2T-G_kai Ah, well that clears it up for me. Well then I guess it's back to Dirt 2.0 and WRC 10
@TA27_2T-G_kai The DD Extreme wheel should (and does) function normally in other games on both PC and playstation. "designed for" does not mean "exclusively works with". This button mapping issue where the wheel does not work in the menus also occurs when playing on PC. This is an issue for the WRC developers to fix.

Don't get hung up on the steering wheel.
The DD Extreme has a great wheelbase.
Let's enjoy Le Maestros together in the next update.
@bbjones516 次のように書きました:@TA27_2T-G_kai DD Extreme ホイールは、PC とプレイステーションの両方で他のゲームでも正常に機能するはずです (実際に機能しています)。「設計対象」は「専用に動作する」という意味ではありません。ホイールがメニューで機能しないというこのボタン マッピングの問題は、PC でプレイしているときにも発生します。これは WRC 開発者が修正すべき問題です。
The DD Extreme wheel base works fine on both PC and PlayStation with other games.
This wheel is licensed by Polyphony Digital.
It is used in Gran Turismo competitions.
The CSL Elite Steering Wheel WRC is used in eSports WRC competitions (hopefully when they resume).
This wheel works fine on Xbox.It seems to have a different design philosophy than Thrustmaster and Logitech products.

No difference for me as of a few hours ago.
For what it's worth I've been trying every mode after each update since last April.

F1 does not require a Formula style wheel. And WRC obviously doesn't require a "rally style" wheel.

Hey, folks
Thanks for the updates, sorry to be missing for a few days. I past the info along to the team who is looking into it when yall asked for updates, so when I get more info from then, I will let you know
Thanks!
EA_ShepardThe GT Extreme wheel still is not able to navigate the menus with the 2.2.0 release. Its just getting really annoying to use my keyboard to start a stage, then have to quickly put it down before the countdown ends. Maybe now that Corsair owns Fanatec, they could provide a GT Extreme wheel for your testing.
