Sf1000
Hello, although it is indicated on the Thrustmaster website that the sf1000 is supported on AMS2, I can't get it to work. It seems not to be recognized by the game. Can someone tell me how to do it? Thanks very much

If the wheel isn't listed in the defined profiles then use "custom wheel" and manually assign & calibrate.
The wheel MUST be on and ideally, have run it's self calibration process BEFORE you launch the game, AMS2's controller detection ONLY happens during initial loading. So if you forget to power the wheel up 1st try restarting the game. Same if the USB gets unplugged in game you'll need to restart the game if this happens.
Be aware though, assigning steering requires a rapid pull & recenter of the rim in about 1 second, pull & hold will not register, too slow and you'll see "Multiple inputs detected" go faster.
You don't NEED to goto full lock so 90 degrees and back is enough.
Pedals likewise, a quick stamp/release is required for it to correctly register.
Once you've assigned all controls/buttons then calibrate the rim and pedals to finalise the degrees of rotation and pedal throw/travel and their min/max readings.
Sadly the game is also known to forget your wheel from time to time (5 or 6 times for me over 3 years on both T300 & my CSL DD), usually either changing the USB port used or re-assigning the controls will solve it.
Hope this helps peeps...

did you update the firmware through the thrustmaster software? i had the same issue, and it fixed it.

the wheel certainly works, but it can take some messing about to get it going. try and find it in the list of wheels in the controller section, when found i sometimes have to restart the pc to get it going.

Thanks a lot for your answers. But unfortunately nothing works, the software is up to date. It is also not listed in the steering wheel list. And since it's not detected, I can't customize it myself. And yet, I plug it in well before launching the game.
I absolutely don't understand why it doesn't work because it is very well detected on Assetto Corsa competition.

Try Reiza Forums, there might be an answer there for you...
Other than trying changing the make to custom or generic DD because there's no native profile for the SF1000.
Generic DD might work but don't think it can do separate pedal axis.
Custom wheel can and was what I used for my CSL DD until Reiza added official profiles for it.
I know Moza owners have had the same issues and custom usually gets them working.
Some people HAVE got it working as it's mentioned in the custom FFB files on the forums as well

OK thanks. I'm going to try that :-)

I have a SF1000 wheel, with a T818 base, combo I’ve been using for about 9 months.

Works fine for me using custom calibration,
sf1000 worked on my previous base T-GT 2 too

You didn’t say what base you where using , I assume you’ve done a firmware update on both
