It’s clearly not GD’s fault, blame developer’s that reuse assets including the bugs that come with it.
These games are just console ports hence why we have none of the features we require on PC
If you really want to play this game it might be easier to just use vjoy as you can setup all your devices in a way that windows will detect it as one device
They are really doing (it seems) a minimal effort to get even multiple game controllers working. Its been a few years and they really haven’t improved that. However, as we know, Fanatec has their own API that can help with interfacing with their devices so thats why those work.
ok then thats all we can ask from you. thanks.
even without having an SC2, I have known the WRC license since the beginning on console then PC (logitech, Fanatec and DD) and I have always had problems with steering wheels and USB peripherals, every year when these WRC games come out we have the same debates and problems ! I am happy that CODEMASTERS is taking over the license I have been waiting for this for 5 years!!! the developers of the WRC license never learn the lessons of previous years, they don’t even know what a USB shifter or handbrake is on a USB PC…
I know Youtubers who have the WRC game for free every year, they have problems even with a DD1 Fanatec, yet partner of this game !!!, when they explain to the developers that you just have to add a file in the game for the coding several devices or so a file for telemetry they don’t know what it is or so answer the question with something else, the developers of this game are not simracing professionals, they just make a game for them consoles and play with a playstation controller… they are not interested in doing more!!! Glad they lost the license!!! they are beginners that’s all … what’s a shame is that with all these problems it spoils the gaming experience, which is a real shame because once well adjusted the gameplay is really good with an SC2 Pro…
I had a time when it was working in both, 9+10. Out of the blue it became a total mess, and addressing shifters, handbrake Aso became a lottery.
But blaming Granite is total unfair and inappropriate. All WRC titles are made for controllers and sitting on a couch.
just an update guys, i left a rather scathing review on steam about my issues and the developers messaged me sending me to a known issues thread and solutions to which it was suggested i go to steam, click on properties for the game and then click controllers and disable steam input.
doing this i was able to get the steering to map correctly and FFB is working as it should, what i then lost was my shifters, so after ripping my hair about about that for half an hour i discovered the way to get my shifters back was to not map them under the ‘‘simucube’’ output but to change it to ‘‘keyboard’’ and now i have my shifters and my steering all working and i hope it stays that way and i dont have to mess with this games input menu ever again.
but there was my solution and now it works, hope that helps somebody else.
THE WRC 7-8-9-10 issue is back : I have performance drops randomly or precisely each time at the same part of some (almomst all) stages.
Reproduce :
Try for example Media Luna for MEXICO, and you will notice it easily, some parts the Framerate drops and the GPU usage drops, BUT if I use only gamepad no perfomance drop.
And you have to play at 120fps to notice easily the issue.
I pass this game, its awfully coded.
Here the framerate drops starts
Here it’s back to normal
I repeat, with gamepad, no issue, and I’m sure every SC2 owners have this issue.
Gonna try this.
But I still can’t change my max wheel angle ingame. It’s greyed out. No idea what to do. I got telemetry working and dlss with newest nvidia driver.
the TD panel works, and overrides any setting in the game.
yeh i cant set max wheel angle either, but just set it to 540 in true drive and you should be good for most cars. i dont personally use DLSS as i have a 4090 so it just locks 120fps at 4k, dont need DLSS so not sure if theres an issue with that.
I have 4090 too, and with night and rain, you will have under 120 fps for sure in many stages, so you are force to use DLSS…if you play all max like me…
ah ive not tried night and rain yet to be fair, been trying to get the damn wheel setup for most my play time haha. i can handle dips under 120 i wont resort to DLSS unless essential, i know the game does misbehave when not locked to a framerate though, its really bad when it comes to variable refresh, stutters dont it like 9 and 10 did.
the lack of gsync support is really awfull.
yeh it really is. gotta lock out that framerate
can you test media luna and tell me if you have performance cut plz
i will soon not actually at pc right now.
thanks, use MSI and RTSS, and look at GPU usage and framerate…it should drops where I have screenshoted
I did the same thing as I remember in Dirt4, WRC9…I had the same problem my USB Porsche Carman shifter was seen as a second controller in games, so I couldn’t use the keyboard- mouse to navigate in the game menus, by disabling imput in steam properties I can now set my SQ shifter in the game
Guys help, i done on steam controller input disabled, but with my SG racing pro shifter when it is connected i still can not navigate in menu, any ideas, thanks!
Edit:
Ok fixed it, recalibrate my SG racing pro shifter in windows, like up down next buttons, and i could control in WRC menu, dialed ffb and i really like it now (even play RBR) take off absolutely Fxaa or fxaa-taa, sharper image quality, i have all my settings in photos if anybody need. Also follow steps if someone has problems mentioned above. Damn 2 -3 hours was messing with it but now i like it a lot, and was bashing before. If they would polish this game it woul be 9/10.
Calibrating shifter in windows: Press Windows(keyboard button)+R, in opened window type: joy.cpl and click OK, game controllers tab will appear, in my case i choose SG Shifter PRO, then click Properties, in new tab choose Settings and will see Calibrate… ( start calibration as after i did it finally was able to navigate in WRC menu with mouse o keyboard).
Hey bro! If you don’t mind sharing also windows procedure, that would be very kind
