Fanatec DD+ Xtreme not recognized

@Redxtreeman33 I appreciate sending this over! I have passed it along to the team!

Cheers!

@simart4 We just left a meeting on peripherals. They are making some updates and changes, but not a specific update on it yet that we have. 

Just to follow up, the biggest thing on this is to basically start over. 

Remove the PC drivers and uninstall them.

Remove all USB devices that you can from the console

Hook everything back up on PC, install all updated drivers etc

I am sending the thread again to the team to look at. It will be up to them to test everything out and see if they can reproduce it on that console. It could be something small, or that a driver is not being recognized.

EA WRC 

PS5 

Fanatec DD Extreme wheel + base

Game doesn't appear to recognize this specific wheel. I am unable to progress beyond the opening splash screen to the main menu. Once game boots up it announces "Press the cross button to start". The cross button does not function.

When using Fanatec Formula V2.5 wheel all controls function as intended. Wheelbase is operating normally. 

When using DD Extreme wheel with other games the Cross button functions as intended. Wheel itself is fully operational. 

Hi,

Game: EA WRC

Plattform: PS 5

Input device: Fanatec Clubsport DD+

Wheel: Podium Monte Carlo Rally & F1 V2.5

When I Start the Game with the Rally Wheel attached, the Base is not recognized at all. Moreover, the Game does not even show the x-button Icon to proceed from the starting screen.

If I equip the formula wheel, at least the x-button shows up, so I can move fortward to the Main Menu and from there to the settings to configure the Wheel. The DD+ is recognized as a CSL DD but I can configure everything and set up buttons to my liking. 

But if I then move on to any Race-Mode, no matter if Race, Time Trial, Career or what ever, and the session starts, the car refusses to move forward. Throttle, brakes, gears, Handbreak, everything works, but the Car stays in place.

I own the Game for Month now and spend hours and hours in the menu but didn‘t managed to drive a single inch with a wheel. Very disapointing. 

Changing the Wheelbases mode from PS5 to PS4 or even Compatibility-Mode Shows also no effect.

The Controller Works fine by the way.

I really Hope you guys can sort this out - keep my fingers crossed.

Best Regards

@EA_Shepard It's been almost 6 months, and it still doesn't work. It's shameful of EA and Codemasters to treat us consumers this way. I will never buy a new EA product again, only second hand. I will try to ask for a refund from Sony, due to the inability to play due to your fault.

@EA_Shepard can you provide any update on this issue?  Its been 2 months since the last WRC patch...

I am on PC and am experiencing the same issue as those on ps5 since the game does not recognize the dd+ extreme wheel.

Any word on this? I haven't been able to play since April. 

Hey Folks,

I have not personally seen an update on this myself. I reached out about it though. Once we get an update on it, we will post it here for you!

Thanks!

I have same problem.

I use PS5.

Got Fanatec DD+ Extreme.Update it.

With game EA Sports WRC no support for my wheel.

Can't use interface,I must use pad for that.

No Force Feedback at all.

Stearing is just wrong.

EA please hepl.
