I dont actually have a handbrake. But still I cant play… Rev the engine, release the clutch and the car goes nowhere. Im assuming this is the stuck handbrake issue.
So if I happened to have a handbrake all would be well. But I dont… I mean really ? The patch couldn’t fix the no handbrake issue too ?
I mean I assume I have the patch… It download 880mb of something… but still it doesnt work
I did fiddle around with the button assignments trying to bind something else as a handbrake - but even binding to clutch pedal doesn’t seem to work. You can kinda get the car to move but you dont achieve this by pushing the pedal full down - you have to kinda jiggle it.
I set my shifter to analog and tried using that as handbrake but that did nothing - suspect this is the other control issue with second controllers not saving.
Seems to me the whole controls setup is somewhat busted in general. Kinda important that aspect… Having all the shininess and bells and whistles is all well and good - but if configuring the main interface to the game does not work its pointless. I’m on the cusp if asking for a refund at this point I think.
With the handbrake attached and ingame set to a button it works.
BUT: All drift events are unplayable, at least for me. I know I can initiate a drift not only with the use of the handbrake, but in some cases it’s the only proper way to use the handbrake. And my muscle memory wants to pull the handbrake lever on my right to initiate a drift.
So once more to the mods and devs a simple question and I expect a clear, honest answer: “When will the Fanatec problems be fixed?”
We still wonder why this was working really well in the demo and now it’s such a mess.
Which settings are you using for your setup? Are you currently using the default settings or have you created you’re own custom mapping as this could make a difference.
Ive tried several.
Tried using an “untouched” settings bank. Tried editing. Tried deleting the settings file.
I cant use the CSL ones because it no longer shows up in the list (though it does int the Windows/Fanatec control panel in windows)
Another related issue is that the “restore defaults” doesnt seem to appear on the current settings in use. So if I have custom wheel #1 selected I cant reset those settings.
If I switch to #2 I can reset those.
If I then use #2 and save and go back to settings I can now restore #1 settings.
Finally I tried FM7 - and it works as expected.
(Though FM7 doesnt let me use the control stick on my wheel - I have to use a controller for that… lets not worry about that here )
I have a handbrake and when it’s not being used it’s on 100%, If I pull the handbrake about 10% it will go to 0%, the more I pull it the more it works like I would expect it to.
The Xbox default does get around the issue, although, FFB seems non existant and I can’t use my shifter at all (static shift paddles).
We really need some feedback regarding these issues. The last update being a week ago, announcing a fix for day 1 (whatever that meant, clearly that time has passed), yet, we’re still here unable to use our wheels.
Mine is working fine now. I found the issue for me was at my end. I tried using EmuWheel to get around the pre-patch issues to emulate it as a different wheel and it mutes the wheel signals to the game in order to emulate it and send a different signal. What I didn’t realise is that I hadn’t un-muted it after trying and that shutting down the PC doesn’t undo it either. Once un-muted it worked perfectly in H4 and so does my handbrake.
The only way to get it to work is using the default bindings. You don’t need the handbrake plugged in. Using any other wheel other than one with in built shifters also will not work, as you can’t rebind shift up/down.
15 days after the game release and there is still no multiple usb support as there was at the demo… analog handbrakes are not working on pc’s and custom profile cannot save the bid. It’s very frustrating cause i don’t see anyone from (Forza) to say something about - investigate and fix this… i decided to buy the Ultmate version cause they told us it supports multiple usb, now i am, thinking to ask for a refund cause of this…
