Logitech G29 not working...

[OrganiicG]

Hi guys, I recently just picked up the Red Pack DLC. I was testing it out when I realized that they inputs that I was putting in on my wheel weren't being applied to the game. I went into my Logitech Game Software to find that the racing wheel itself wasn't even showing up in the menus. I am extremely upset about this as I have already had to return my old G27 for a G29. And now that this isn't working. I am pretty pissed. If anyone knows anything about a workaround or an actual fix to this problem it would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

Try to reconnect the G29 by plugging out the usb cable and try to plug it into another usb port, my G29 is working fine..

Have you updated your logitech game software? I believe the old version doesnt see the new G29/G290 wheels (but i could be wrong, i stopped using logitech hardware a while ago)

Heres a link, just make sure you correctly set 32 or 64 bit depending on your OS.
http://support.logitech.com/en_gb/software/lgs

once that has installed, reboot your pc then go into the software and see if its reading your wheel correctly. Or click windows start menu (bottom left) then settings, Devices, connected devices and you should see your logitech wheel correctly listed, once you got that then you know windows is seeing your wheel correctly and now its down to the game.

The game should list your wheel in the controls option ingame but i have known a couple of people have had to manually assign each input (steering, throttle, brake, clutch and then each gear individually).

If thats all as clear as mud then feel free to add me and i can go though each step with you mate.

if windows-10: you have to re-teach windows what drivers to use.
If it shows up as df-gt, then device-manager- -> df-gt -> driver-properties -> chose different driver -> chose the generic choice named usb HID input device, disconnect wheel upon success, update/replace your logitech software (if applicable), reboot PC, have it recognised, again.

Ok, here is the thing. It pops up in the driver manager under the universal serial bus tab as a G29, but not under the controller tab. However, when I go through the properties of the G29 it doesn't even register all of the buttons. I thinks it is a joystick or something. I have the latest version of LGS and have unplugged and replugged the controller into different ports an unconcievable amount of times. Looks like a Thrustmaster wheel is next. Another thing is while I was in the controls tab in Corsa, only some of the buttons on the wheel actually work (mostly the physical buttons on the wheel). There is no steering wheel, gas, brake, or clutch input in the controller tab of Corsa either.

This sounds a bit like your wheel isn't getting powered, make sure it's plugged in properly.

Just remembered, hasnt that wheel got a ps3/ps4 switch? i think it needs to be in ps3 mode for PC. Worth a try.

And you havent tried to set an assetto corsa profile in the LGS? I seem to remember the default one works as is.

It needs to be in ps4 mode (which it is). And thats another thing, the G29 doesn't pop up in the menus so I can't even access the profile settings.

you sure about that? tm-wheels want to be set to ps3, which is the exact opposite.

what does your device-manager tell you when you plug-in or unplug the wheel?

Im running Windows 10. They just released an update for it and I believe that could be the cause. The only issue is that I don't have a restore point for before the update. I was looking around on the logitech forums and some other people have been having issues but not with there wheels.

I assume you have tried running the controller config/calibration thingy in-game and not just applying a preset?

With the new logitech software you have to create a custom profile for assetto corsa, and set it as default and persistent.

Another thing that happened to me is that if i used my wheel in USB3 port then it would kinda disconnect/ stop respond for 2 or 3 seconds, and it happened every 2 or 3 minuts. So use a usb 2.0 port.

Thanks, Cunning but the problem is that my G29 isn't being recognized. I can access the controller config in game but I can't use the wheel, gas, brake, or clutch. Another thing to note is that the force feedback is on so it is heavy whenever it is plugged in.

Ok, let me note that I cannot see my G29 in the logitech game software. The wheel itself does not appear in the menus at all. It's like it just doesn't want to recognize the wheel at all.
