I’d like all the buttons of my Logitech G923 could work in Forza horizon 5, currently it is not possible to set the buttons “LSB, RSB, +, -,” (and the big rounded button) for any functionality. Also, please allow the possibility to set a normal button for “look back” function (racing wheels do not have analog sticks), thank you.
Hey fellow frustrated wheel user, I have that same model. You actually can assign every button, even the scroll wheel thing. It actually counts as 2 buttons, when used clockwise and counterclockwise. I use it for the extra, not useful stuff if I really need it, like Radio Next/Prev).
You just have to go to Controls → Change Input Mapping → Wheel, the categories of controller types Controller, Keyboard, and Wheel are at the top, then use RB/Page Down to the Wheel page.
The default profile will be on the actual G923 wheel, it will say the model name “Logitech blah blah”. If this doesnt show up, FH5 doesnt actually recognize the G923, which usually is bc the Logitech GHub isnt installed or isnt running in the background.
DO NOT edit the actual Logitech profile. Use a new “Custom Wheel Profile”, doesnt matter which just remember the number. Then edit that one to mirror the Logitech profile/bind your custom mappings. It should already be almost the same.
DO NOT edit any controls that are Axis, like pedals and wheel direction, they will say “Axis 123” instead of “Button 123” or “Switch 1 XYZ”.
This is because the Menu UI and Game UI do not accept the same types of input. You might have noticed this in upgrades, where Rev Engine is Tab on keyboard but is grayed out when wheel is active, bc the Menu UI doesnt accept axis-based input controls like the accel/brake/clutch.
Heres a list of default/presets and their keyboard default (LSB and RSB’s alt keyboard inputs are assumptions):
