Control Devices & Wheel Issues

This is quite a problem. RNR has a lousy taste in my FF. I'm trying to setup two days and I'm always satisfied. I used to playing hardcore simulations, and the RnR FF I can not get used to. Moreover, the game does not use the G25 full 900 °. Steering wheel after take-off apart. Setup is just the addition of linearity and ill effect FF. This is inadequate for precise control and function....

I thought I read somewhere that the game would support 900° steering wheels. How much rotation does it support then?

It is the strange solution. Setting G25 on my 900 degrees, but the game responds as follows:

Ingame setting has only 2 settings. Strength of response and linearity.

Set up ingame linearity to 100% (the steering wheel is too sensitive.) = Total ingame turning the steering wheel turns around 810 degrees

Set up ingame linearity to 0% (steering wheel has a central position about 180° dead zone) = total ingame turning the steering wheel turns around 880 degrees

It is never full 900 degrees and do not understand why as the degree depending on the setting lenearity??? This is unusual and uncomfortable ....

RNR does not support game controllers connected to the PC at the same time once. The problem is a configuration controller. Option is primarily keyboard settings + only one controller. Unable to set other remaining controllers. Even not choose to be the main and secondary. RNR shows the keyboard + controller ID in the first game drivers.
The second thing is that they are selected on default action on all controllers (acceleration, brake, left, right) and when I delete these events and restart the game again automatically entered standard setting ......

Correct:
Able to set all the game controllers while connected to the PC. Delete automatically selected on the action for each controllers. (((Only the G25 steering wheel I used to manage! Remaining controllers for the remaining events. Such as lights, flashers, ........ etc)

In the settings menu: Missing Indicators spins the wheel and dead zone (I can not verify the changes I made)
Acceleration indicators, brake clutch. Set the pedals is completely missing. There is no possibility of linearity pedals and dead zone set .......

Correct wrong FF and full 900 °. Clutch works too strange. Does not work at start the vehicle. Works both mutations between manual and semi-automatic gearbox ....

TrackIR: Support is not. Does not work!

And so I could continue. What developers did 8 years I ask??

The G25 isnt very well used you can change to the next gear you want without a gearchange in game until you dip the clutch wich is total unrealistic dunno if its just me but has anybody else tried it yet

I think that is imposible to fix until we have force feedback in our shifters.You can change to another gear without clutch or syncronize your gears, but the shifter doesn't know the game do that (and it's not the only game)

with regards to the not having full 900 degree support, not very many games do apart from the full on racing sims like GTR and Rfactor and my favourite, Test drive unlimited.
But i play euro truck simulator which also does not support 900 degree, but i can force it to using the logitech profiler and it is spot on, for every millimeter i move the wheel, it does the same in game, can you not do the same with this game?
I too am waiting for the english release before i buy it like USA Trucker, and as you may have guessed i am also lucky enough to own a G25

can anybody that has the game and the G25 confirm if the above works or not? i am too impatient to wait till i get the game.

Confirm if what works, exactly? I've got the game but haven't been able to configure the steering wheel correctly so far. Obviously I don't understand a letter of Russian so it's all trial and error.

I have the pedals set up okay, but for some reason it doesn't seem to detect the steering wheel properly. It only detects movement to the left side. So I can steer to the left alright but not to the right. I'm sure it's just a matter of changing some setting somewhere.

As for forcing the game to use the full 900° I can't say. I am sure that you can set your wheel to use the full 900° using the Logitech Profiler, but the in-game steering wheel will probably not be in sync with your real steering wheel (ie. the in-game wheel will probably turn slower).

I also haven't been able to configure my seperate shifter. The game detects the G25 shifter alright but I normally use a different shifter because, well... the G25 shifter is shit. I've seen someone on this forum say that it is possible to configure other control devices as well, though, so that's just a matter of knowing where to look (and understanding Russian ).

From my limited experience I can say that the clutch doesn't work like it's supposed to at all, as has been mentioned several times by other people who have the game. Pressing the clutch pedal doesn't actually disengage the engine, it's also impossible to stall the engine. You can't let the clutch slip, either, as far as I can tell. I also don't hear any grinding noises when shifting down (or up) several gears at once as some "individuals" supposedly told USA_Trucker in PM's.

A positive note is that the game seems to run smoothly on my not-very-high-end system on a resolution of 1680*1050. From what I had read so far I feared that it would be a slide show. I haven't fiddled around with any graphical settings or anything, though. At the first run the game chooses the settings best suited for your system, and I just stuck with that. Looks good enough for me although I'm sure it can look a lot better if you've got a proper gaming pc.
