G27 - H Shifter not working in game?

[IronMonkeyJnr]

I'm slightly curious, but my H-Shifter doesn't seem to be working in-game? I'm not entirely sure if i'm missing something but during the configuration setup, it seems to be fine, I can even see the buttons click/move on the shifters screen.

My paddles seem to work flawlessly, I've checked 'Use Seperate Shifter' box, to see if that would produce a different outcome but nope, nothing. Any suggestions as to what I'm doing wrong?..

Cheers!

You need to drive a car without flappy paddles like the X-bow, old M3 or lotus.

This

It's in the wheel set up options

Same problem here.

• I have used the presets for the G27 with separate H-shifter.
  
• The option "Use separate shifter" is checked.
  
• When running the controls wizard, the manually selected gears are working jut fine.
  
• I'm using cars without automatic gear (I've tried Lotus Elise SC and BMW M3 E30)

However, when on the Practice track, the H-shifter has no effect on the car, only the shift up/down paddles work.

Any ideas? Has anyone been able to make manual shifting work, or is it not yet implemented?

For me it works without any issues.

Only idea I have is to check your driving assists.
Maybe something is activatet that creates complications (Autoclutch?)

Yep, just found out that in addition to all of the above, you have to go to the Realism/Assists settings and disable the Autoshift (and, optionally, Autoclutch) options. They are enabled by default in the "Gamer" profile.

Wow, driving with manual shift feels so realistic, and gives you so much more control!

Thanks!

H-shifter works perfectly. No issue.

Try using the Controller Wizard or whatever it's called, try to set it up from there.

I had a similar problem, but it appeared to be because I still had my X-Box controller plugged in. I also had issues with reverse axis while configuring, which I didn't have when I 1st installed the sim. Teething problems I guess :) Eventually I got it working.

Thanks, but like what I said, it's resolved now. :) In order to use manual shift, 3 requirements must be met:

• Under Options/Controls/Shifters: Make sure that "Use Separate Shifter" is checked and the gears assigned
  
• Select a car that has manual shift (e.g. Lotus Elise SC or BMW M3 E30)
  
• Under Drive/Realism/Assists, make sure that "Automatic Gearbox" and "Automatic Clutch" are disabled.

Where are these options at? I don't see any advanced realism options. This is so damn annoying!

When you set up a practice or race, you have an overview section on the lower part of the screen. Realism / assist settings can be adjusted there. 2nd panel in from the left....I think.

I know this is an old topic, but just had a similar problem with G27 H-shifter.
I coudn't get H-shifter work after half a year not using other than keyboard.
Settings for H-shifter done manually via configuration and seperate gears with fine response in configuration menu, but no luck when driving car.

However, my solution was quite simple:
1: Switch on automatic clutch
2: Drive out a car requiring clutch, e.g. Ferrari 250 GTO and shift gears with H-shifter
3: Switch off automatic clutch.
4: Voilá.
