Help with a G27 wheel to work with systems


Bish777

Recommended Posts

I am pulling my hair out over this. My friend wants me to add a Logitech G27 wheel to his rig. I can not get some systems to work. I know I must be missing something incredibly small since every place I look online seems to gloss over things like the Profiler setup, but if anyone could walk me through this I would appreciate it.

My setup uses the following systems that I wanted it to work with:

MAME - mameuifx64.exe

Doplhin

M2 - emulator_multicpu.EXE

M3 - Supermodel.exe

PSX - ePSXe

PS2 - PCSX2 with Qemu plugin for the wheel

Note: the setup already uses 2 Logitech controllers (F310), two ArcageGun lightguns, and a Tankstick with trackball.

M2, M3, and getting FFB to work are my primary concerns right now.

PS2 seems to play GT4 just fine (although no FFB) with the Plugin, MAME I just got the controls to do what I wanted but no FFB (For the record the wheel is the Steering Wheel Analog, the gas and brake are the Analog Inc settings, leave the others "None" for me), M2 and M3 are an absolute mystery to me on how to get the emulators to recognize them. It is possible I am messing up the profiler in some way. Is their just one setting for it, do I need to set it for each emulator?

I have not gotten FFB to work on ANY system yet. I have a feeling that this should be much easier to install than what I am going through and it is something I have missed.

Thanks for any input or pointing me in the right direction. If I find any fixes for my issues, I will put them here in case others have the same problems.

FFB is a screwy, weird thing. There are many different APIs used for FFB over the years, and the G27 supports *most* of them, but not all of them.

Now, enter emulation. MAME doesn't really support FFB (at least, not to my knowledge). The best you can do is use the Logitech Profiler to set the return to center spring strong enough to where you like it.
