G29 buttons

[w.sieghart]

My G29 is working fine - except the buttons. I can configure them - but ETS2 ignores them completely!! Why and how can this be fixed ??

[YOGI]

does the g29 work in any other game? Is it JUST ets2? Is the g29 working within the Logitech Controler Profiler? ( Logitech Gaming Software, https://support.logitech.com/en_ch/downloads)
Make sure all this is OK and verify your ETS2 Game...as it had an UPDATE...that may not Update/Installed all the file correctly...

there is no other game than ETS2 (I'm not really a gamer) - my game was downloaded via steam a few days ago and updates with every start. Do I have to connect Logitech Gaming Software in any way with ETS2 or is it detected automatically ?? The G29 is detected by ETS2 and I can drive without problems - but without working buttons. Sorry for those maybe stupid questions - but ETS2 is my first game at all.

You need the proper Logitech Gaming Software installed.

You set the buttons under the keyboard controls section.

This happened a day or two ago to somebody else and it turned out the didn't have the proper Logitech software installed.

I have the latest version 1.9 downloaded from Logiotech support page for the G29. So it should be the proper version.

This is a known problem. It happens because Logitech is not following Microsofts guidelines on how to implement drivers in Windows 10. Since Windows 10 1803, LGS has not worked properly.Logitech knows but don't care about it.

One way around it, is to use a program like Antimicro and set up your binds in that program instead, then close LGS when playing ETS2. Make sure to start Antimicro in admin mode.

If you look in Logitechs subreddit on reddit, you will see hundreds of people that can no one make binds work on any of their Logitech devices, since Windows 10 version 1803.

Sorry, but this is bs. I have a g29 and it works perfectly in Win 10 1803.

ye it works with buttons you can assign in the game, but not the buttons you bind in LGS.

Have you misstyped the version?
The latest one should be 9.x

You dont have to bind any buttons in lgs to use any of them in the game?

Could you bind left and right indicator to left and right joypad on your wheel from in the game? Could you bind Start engine to the Playstation button?

Actually, I think I might just have found a solution, at least it seems to work for me, so it would be nice if someone else could confirm. Go into Windows Defender Security Center and find the Exceptions part, where you can add files and folders and processes as exceptions for Defender. Add 2 processes, LCore.exe and LogiRegistryService.exe and reboot and see if it works now.

+1

Just make sure all buttons are set to "Use Generic"

Yes, no problems at all binding them in game. My start engine is bound to the PS4 button, my blinkers are bound to the left and right buttons on the joypad on my wheel.

Every button and paddle on the wheel have been assigned a function in game.

Yes.
I have all buttons on the wheel bound to stuff in the game....even the small red wheel (think it is for force feedback strength on consoles or so) can be bound without changing any stuff in lgs.

[Jonah_Hax]

Ye, I can get all the buttons to work now, IF I can assign them in the game. But a button like F12 that resets the VR view can't be assigned to the wheel, since it doesn't show up in the options and assigning it in LGS does nothing..
