I dont have a thrustmaster but if its the same sort of setup as for a logitech one then you'll prbable have to set up a profile in the Thrustmaster profiler. Not sure how its done for the thrustmaster. I'll check out how I done it for my G27 and type it in another reply to you ASAP.

ok the following instructions are for the logitech g27 but the same may apply for your thrustmaster so its worth a try.

1. Go to Thrustmaster Profiler.
2. Look for profile.
3. Click to add new game.
4. Browse for files.
5.Go to steam.
6. go to common.
7. Dirt Rally.
8. on the bottom of the opened Dirt rally file should be an icon with Dirt rally by the side ofit. Click on this and press open file.
9. Back to Thrustmaster profiler and you should be able to click on the Dirt rally icon and name the prolfile as dirt rally and click ok.

I'm not saying this will work with thrustmaster but until someone else replies it be worth you trying this.

Go here first to download the drivers/profiler:

Check if it's recognized correctly via the controller settings within windows.

For some reason, I often hat the problem that it wasn't recognized correctly and half the buttons just wouldn't work.

I don't have it anymore, but plugging it in before starting the computer worked a 100%

Maybe some older thrustmaster driver problem

Also, check for firmware updates!

I have the lastest firmware and made it so it recogniced the wheel..And tried to set it up but it dosent seem to work the steering is choppy and lags dont know if its because its an UK wheel and i live in sweden.

It looks like when i turn the wheel it just chops from being straight to turning 90 degrees..

Its like this in every game i tried..

Please try following these steps because you had to setup the T150 as there is no action map. It sounds as though you may have it set as an incorrect device type.

Step-by-step Guide for Setup of Unsupported Steering Wheel Devices in DiRT Rally

1. Connect all your devices and start the game.
2. Find ‘Direct Input Device’ in the Choose Preset within the Controls menu.
3. Next press F1 to change the ‘Direct Input Device’ type to [Steering Wheel] and press ‘Return/Enter’ on the keyboard to confirm.
4. Now assign all controls, as required and the Advanced Wheel Settings option will appear.
5. Go to Advanced Wheel Settings, select Calibrate Device and complete the process.
6. Return to the Main Menu, select Profile, Driver Details and select Save Profile.
7. The next time you re-launch the game, at the title screen press ‘Return/Enter’ on the keyboard rather than a button on any of the connected devices. After the title screen you are okay to use any device as normal.

Note Step 3: If more than one ‘Direct Input Device’ is connected, then change all their types to [Steering Wheel] and this will ensure that when you bind your controls the correct Advanced Wheel Settings menu will be displayed.

Note Step 7: Pressing ‘Return/Enter’ on the keyboard at the title screen should prevent the issue that some users are experiencing, when their device bindings are lost and the game reverts to the default preset.

I have done that but its terrible input lag and choppyness in both this game and Project Cars,
Either my install went wrong but i dont think so or its a faulty wheel or you cant import wheels from uk even though we have the same voltage and hertz.

I use a socket converter also..Have anyone had the same problem with a thrustmaster wheel?

I bought a T150 yesterday and the steering was very choppy. Even when turned off the steering wasn't smooth, it felt like there was something wrong with gears or faulty bearings.

Like in this video:

Returned it and got another one and it works much better. Still isn't as smooth as a real car though.

I found FFB wheels in PCARS require a lot of setting up. You have to do it for every car individually. In DR a lot of the 'choppy' feeling is caused by the surface. Lowering suspension force may help with that.

I have a T150 and some "gear noise" or light clicking when turning the wheel (without power) is normal. This is the meshing of the gears as they have to be very tight as to not have backlash (which would show as a deadzone in force feedback.) If it is choppier than that while powered on and the 90* snapping you are describing does sound bad though. I'd make sure it is recognizing the analog input correctly in the driver settings first.
