Does Assetto Corsa Support 360 Steering Wheel?

[Lumper]

Considering purchasing this game but I want to know if it supports the 360's original steering wheel? http://i.imgur.com/7b640t4.jpg

1) Does it support the wheel?
2) Does it support vibration?
3) Does it support real force feedback?
4) Can the wheel rotation limit be tweaked in Assetto Corsa?

This wheel worked perfectly fine in Forza as the game was made with this steering wheel in mind, but due to its limited wheel rotation i'm wondering if it'll be a viable option to race with in Assetto Corsa.

No replies, and due to the complete lack of information after several minutes of Googling, looks like i'm passing on this game.

Does it work with any other PC game?

Yes it does work but I wouldn't recommend it though. You got no FF and no vibration, I tested it. You're better of with a 360 gamepad to be honest.

[Major Issue]

From Wikipedia: "The Microsoft Wireless Gaming Receiver for Windows information page specifies that there will be future drivers available which will enable force feedback in Windows Vista. However, as of May 2013, no drivers with force feedback are available in Windows."

Yes, several other games like NFS Shift 2 and DiRT support it, but there's no real vibration or force feedback, so it's a very disconnected experience.

What's it like being able to predict the future?

I may buy it at a later point if it supports the 360 steering wheel, but in its current iteration the game is not worth buying.

There's no point playing a "simulator" if you're using a gamepad or your keyboard. That defeats the whole point of simulation.

As you can see in my previous post, any game on PC don't provide FFB with this wheel because of lack of drivers with FFB support for windows so you should buy another wheel.

It will work fine, but it will work without vibration or FFB, that's not the game's fault, that Microsofts. Stuff doesn't work "by magic", you need software for the vibrations and FFB to actually work in a game, Microsoft doesn't have that required software.

"There's no point playing a "simulator" if you're using a gamepad or your keyboard. That defeats the whole point of simulation."

You're acting like it doesn't support ANY wheels, it does support almost EVERY wheel. And it will work with your one, just without FFB or vibrations.

Johnnie, idk if you're attempting to troll and just really bad at it, or if you have a mental deficiency, but I wish you all the best.

@SeriousSpy
Thanks for the info.

I used to own a Logitech G27 but ended up selling it due to a lack of polished racing sims on PC. Assetto Corsa and Project CARS are two games worth the consideration of buying another G27.

So you missed out on GTR 2, GT Legends, and rFactor (with mods).

I was going to mention GTR2 and GTL, about as polished as it gets, and with lots of very good mods. It's only because AC has even better physics I'm considering abandoning them, they're still heads and shoulders above anything on console when it comes to rewarding realistic treatment of the car.

The only reason I'm not abandoning them is because they have so much more content than AC at the moment. Of course, it'll take a few years before the modding community "matures", so to speak, to the level of GTR and rFactor.

Yes it does. The xbox 360 wheel isn't listed as a wheel in their control options, but you can set it up with the custom wheel settings. There's analogue settings for wheel and pedals. You can set gear shift to the paddles and other options to the buttons, however the d-pad isn't recognised.
There's no vibration/feedback.
You can set the the wheel rotation. There's also a configuration option which advises what degree value to use.
Word of note that the brake and throttle don't work independently(can't brake whilst you use throttle). This doesn't affect competetive racing, but for racers that heel & toe the pedals it might annoy.

Although a different racer, I find the wheel performs much like it does with Forza 3/4/Horizon.

[Big Job On Boss]

Yea mine is working on AC, much better than it did on other pc games, i find force feedback quite week if you use it set up as a wheel also the vibration doesn't work, however if you use it configured as a control pad the force feedback is much stronger and the vibration works ok.
i havant used the wheel for a very long time and it doesn't seem as good as i remember it on forza, but yes both vibration and force feedback does work :)

[DaveLine]

Hi, I'm just trying to make work that xbox wheel but there is no way to enable force feedback. I only can get a week vibration if I configure it as a control pad. I don't know if I'm missing something or what :(
Pls help.

as mentioned above, there are no drivers for windows which would enable FF on the wheel, so you're not missing anything, its just that it doesnt have FF on windows.

I guess this is too old to reply to, but nvm, going to leave this here:

Heel-toe without a clutch pedal? Wa? :D
