    some appendum to the wheel discussion.
    On Thrustmaster wheels it will NOT work if you simply change the wheel while the game is active, as you should/must power down the base before changing the rim.
    Then the pCARS/AMS2 and some other games loose control to the base and very often you have no FFB or no wheel after power on the wheel again.
    So its good to restart the game too.
    With Fanatec and many custom USB rims on DD's its another story ;)

    I think I map the most used buttons to my keyboard instead of the rim. Perhaps dat works better for me until there is a solution..

    I think you may use JoytoKey app to swap as many wheels as you like. With this app you basically map some general keys to all of your controllers and then you use the general keys in AMS2 and you can swap wheel as much as you like provided JTK is on (until Reiza finishes the planned upgrade that is)

    Hope it makes your special wheels a better experience with AMS2. Had to use it for my Cube Controls wheel :)

    Well today I had the time to test it and I believe it works awesome. One thing I don’t get is when you have different wheels, how to use it? Do I need to make a profile for each wheel and select that profile when changing wheels? I now have 2 profiles 1 for the F1 wheel and 1 for the CSL wheel. Haven’t test a wheel swap ingame so I don’t k ow for sure if it will work like have in mind. The vid doesn’t explains how to use this app with more than 1 wheel. It only tells me that you can use it with multiple wheels.

    If you set JTK correctly you should have no issues in swapping by selecting one profile or the other

    .
    you who do not understand and end up using technical things that a consumer is not obliged to understand.
    I as a consumer understand that the company has a good product but with a lot of unfinished parts, some not so important and others very important, but instead of the company's focus on fixing what already exists, it ends up dividing that time with more content than many Sometimes it comes unfinished too, I think this is not difficult to understand, is it?

    .
    I didn’t say at any time if one yes is better than another, the comparison I made was simply Kunos focus on dedicating itself to something and terminalo seems to me better than Reiza in having several things that end up not being ready, example of the GT4 of ACC, it was not released before the GT3 had a quality well above, but I understand that the problem here is sometimes to tell some truths, and people feel offended by questioning your favorite game or company, but time will tell if the Reiza and his squires were right, I hope I am wrong, but in this development planning I find it difficult for AMS2 to have the relevance that AMS1 had.

    That's exactly what Ettore was trying to explain. That the new content people are different to the people who are there to 'fix what already exists'.

    So stopping new content won't mean other things will be fixed faster.

    You are correct that AMS2 has unfinished parts and still needs improvement.
    What I don't understand, is why this is a surprise to you, when Reiza have said this from the start.
    For example, this post from Feb 2020:

    And this from the official website:

    in 2030/2040 we will all look back and tell our (grand)children we all worked onto AMS 2 and made this masterpiece that's being played until 2060.

    It's not about being offended, it's about what you say being not comparable and clearly wrong. You clearly do not understand or act like one: Kunos had one single class scheme of business with SRO and 505 games backing them financially. Reiza is not having a single class sim and is not having those giants behind their back to keep the studio going. They are not on similar competion grounds!
    Kunos is also not producing a single new car since one year. Their update log is ridiculous in terms of what is changed: there is hardly anything being done and they will always remain limited by the limitation of SRO classes. AMS2 will not.
    What part is not clear to you?

    Maybe you have been living on Mars till now, but all the big complex software/games have been recently following the same pattern of development with the software already released to public. It's become a common way and actually offers a lot of upsides: first the community receives the game at a stage when things can still be influenced. Second it makes viable projects that wouldn't be otherwise viable financially, third it reduces (not always) the waiting time for the community to receive a title.
