[Windows] DFGT no buttons in Assetto Corsa & Forza 6

Post by haired »

Hi.

I've got DIY GIMX adapter and Logitech Driving Force GT wheel. GIMX both connectors are connected to my PC and I can see two wheels in LGS 5.10.127. G27 is selected as ID1 (default controller).

If I press any button on a wheel In Forza Motorsport 6 Apex the game resets my controllers to noname wheel and restricts me to select G27 again (supported device not found). After that I can only use dpad, wheel and pedals but no other button is working. I can't assign custom wheel either. Pedals or any button will always be recognized as Breaks.

Same story with Assetto Corsa — buttons won't work and the game will recognize both wheels at the same time (G27 and DFGT).

Log file

My GIMX adapter:

1. DIY. Used parts: Teensy 2.0 and CP2102

3. The gaming target: Windows 10 PC

4. Games: Forza Motorsport 6 Apex, Assetto Corsa

5. The controller: Logitech Driving Force GT + Pedals

Hi,

Do you have combined pedals disabled?

Are you sure you have G27PC FW and not G27PS3?

Also please try to make a new configuration. Check this article for more information - https://gimx.fr/wiki/index.php?title=Cr ... igurations

Combined pedals are disabled.
I've double checked and re-flashed G27PC once again.
I've made a new config from scratch. Now Forza 6 recognize my wheel as G27 but it's not working properly anyway.
For example gear paddles can double or triple click. It can drop gears from 6 to 1 with one click. To change view I need to press Select multiple times like crazy because it won't react. And I can't look back — if I press and hold view button the game recognize it ad "press and release".
The wheel itself feels empty with slight turns and heavy as hell when I'm trying to turn hard.

Off-topic. Why emulate DFGT as G27 when G29 has all the same layout and buttons?

Because we have no G29PC emulation yet.

Are you sure this is a genuine Teensy board? We had problems with fake teensy boards already.

Please make a log file when you press some buttons in game. This one is mostly empty.

Well, my Teensy looks exactly like one on the official Teensy site. How can I tell if this is fake or not?
I've made a log file.
Assetto Corsa doesn't have double- triple clicks problem with GIMX.

Thanks for the log.

There was a way before to check if teensy loader allows flashing of firmware but I don't remember which teensy version was that applicable to.

I will ask Matlo about your problem. Reply time might be longer because Matlo is pretty busy.

Did you apply all Windows updates? There was a time frame where Windows fucked up the hid driver, and the result was Logitech wheels did not work anymore.

Hi.
The Windows Update is always on. The Windows itself was freshly installed a couple of months back.

I've checked my Winodows Update logs. This fix KB4074588 was installed ‎successfully on 14.‎02.‎2018 so no problem with HID driver.
