Logitech Driving Force GT - What games to play?

sid · 7 Feb 2010 at 17:24

Hello,

What games are you playing with yours?

SO far Dirt2 didn't work (i tried the hacks). It works inthe demo but not the original. What a joke!

NFS Shift is awesome with it

Grid doesn't seems properly supported either. I know I should have done my research by there doesn't appear to be a list of games for the pc that are supported

I'm on XP and the wheel is working on Grid for me.

The wheel works with manual config but its set to 900deg turning so impossible to drive. I've set it to lower the setting in the profiler but it doesn't work

Works brilliantly on grid for me. Assign the axes manually and it's a treat.

Try LFS, GTR2, GTL, GTR:Evo, DiRT, DiRT 2 (again assign axes/buttons manually in menu).

Looks like it doesn't! It works fine in the demo, appears support for it never made it into the full game (yet). There is one fix, and that's to change the name of your controller in windows to Logitech Driving Force Pro, which is supported, and it'll work. This does involve editing the registry though.

Well i got it to work my assigning the button manually, it does work in that respect but isn't natively supported so I can't map the flashback buttons on to it

Well I may try that sometime

Hangon just one second, I was looking forward to buying Dirt 2 and being able to use my G25, and I can't?

Anyway, TDU! Old game but really fun. Still looks nice but you have to find some friends to cruise around with otherwise it's just not as fun. It's an MMORG! (Massively Multiplayer Online Racing Game)

You can. Your G25 is not a Driving Force GT.

I just assumed it lacked general wheel compatibility

But thanks.

NFS Shift is on offer @£15 if u shop round............. well worth it at that price.

sid · 8 Feb 2010 at 19:19

I got it to work in Dirt but its actually quite hard to powerslide with the wheel as you can bash it around to the opposite direction quickly enough.

Still good fun though

Can you tell me how you assigned the buttons? They don't seem to work unlike the axes
