Steering Axis binding - Thrustmaster RGT
Hi,
I followed the manual config guide but still can't bind steering axis with Thrustmaster RGT. It recognizes the wheel moving but only works as if i was pressing a button, when you steer with the wheel it locks only into one direction (right hand). It is still working as a button and not as an axis.

All the other axis (pedals) and buttons work fine.
I copied the config file from T80 model. It would be nice if you included the RGT in your wheel supported list.

Hi,
What if you copied T300 config? Does that improves your experience?

Thanks for the reply.

Tried, but no luck. When i move the wheel it only goes right. It's strange because all other inputs work fine. (wheel works fine in other games and is up to date with drivers so i ruled out a malfunction). I did the restore to default of course.

Maybe i am doing something wrong in the config file?

If the wheel is always on the right, means that the axis that you're using for the steer function is receiving a value of "1". Maybe you should try another axis on the config file

Any news on this? I have the same wheel with the same problem.

Have you tried the new configuration wizard?

This video can help you to see how it works

Yes i tried this too, doesn't help at all, the steering axis is still completly messed up.

What do you mean by messed up?

Blizzer,
Hi, I tried the new config wizard. I still have the same problem. The axis goes from 0 to 1 or from 0 to -1, but not from -1 to 1. However i could apparently find out what is causing it.

Its due to DirectInput support. I was able to find this in a topic from another game where the same problem emerged and explaining there is a way to 'merge' the axis using additional software.

The steering wheel axis is just recognized from center to right. So if i turn the wheel to the right it actually moves to right, but if i turn the wheel to the left it immediately jumps to the outter right position of the axis indicator.

I already have 90 minutes ingame just to try to calibrate the wheel, so i think i tried the wizard about 20 times. In dirt rally, dirt 3/4, wreckfest, project cars and assetto corsa the wheel works just fine, so its definitely not a wheel problem.

EDIT: more precise problem description:
my wheel has a 270° turning radius. Lets brake this down to -135° for outter most left position 0° center and +135° outter most right.

0° to +135 works just as expected.
BUT
the whole range from -1° to -135° input ends up with +135° output
