Thrustmaster TMX steering wheel on PS4

Post by jcchg »

Devices:
Official GIMX adapter
Thrustmaster TMX
Dualshock 4
PS4
Windows 10 64-bit PC

Problem: the program doesn't detect the steering wheel.

I've read the setup guide, several forum's topics, and all. I don't know what I'm doing wrong.

I installed the program, restarted the PC, plugged the adapter, steering wheel and DS4 (turned off). Checked the connections. Open the program, select G27 to G29 config, check before launching, launch, and steering wheel is not detected. Launch:

Tried with T300 config, it seems to detect the steering wheel. Check before launch, "OK!", launch, push PS button. I start to push buttons of the steering wheel, it doesn't react.

I disconnect the steering wheel, check before launch (T300 config), and still says "OK!", so... it doesn't work

I read that the official adapter comes with G27 to G29 firmware installed. I tried to install another firmware, but this is what happens: https://i.imgur.com/AhqMYlE.png

If I try to create my own configuration, when I try to assing a button, and push anyone of the steering wheel''s, nothing happens.


Help is much appreciated!

I figured out how to load another firmware: connect both usb extremes of the adapter to the PC (cable and the adapter itself), start the firmware loader, when it says to unplug and replug, you have to do it with the cable extreme.

Still I have the same problem: (I guess) the steering wheel is not detected by the program. As I said in my previous post, I tried to set up a new configuration, but I cannot assign buttons, axis... also I haven't found a proper tutorial of how to create a new config for a steering wheel. Yes, I have read this but it doesn't say me anything.

Isn't it supposed to work? EMUG29PS4 firmware, LogitechG27_G29 config and any steering wheel?

Any detailed tutorial on how to create your own configuration?

Thanks for the response.

I guess I have to create a configuration. But the steering wheel is not detected, and I don't know what to do next, I haven't seen in the guide the procedure to follow if this happens.


Creating configurations
If you can't find configuration that satisfies you, for example when:

Using Steering wheel that there's no ready-made config for

You may need to create your own configuration. In order to do it please check Creating Configurations tutorial.


In gimx-config, I can assign buttons...

Playing with GIMX
Click on "Check". It may indicate something wrong with the configuration, or important information (it will say if a device is missing).


The steering wheel is connected, but it says it is missing.

I found an easy way to create a new configuration, which is taking a look at Logitech G27 bindings for example and begin replacing them with my Thrustmaster wheel.

But the problem is that the wheel is not detected by the program. :?: I actually tried different USB ports (rear, front, 3.0, 2.0...).

Did you install Thrustmaster driver for your wheel? And also Logitech gaming software for Logitech wheel?

That was it! I hadn't installed the drivers for the wheel... that simple. Now it recognizes the buttons, and I can assign them.

I will see if I can create a config and get it running.

Thank you so much.
