    Ok, I found a workaround. Joy2Key does work, but a default option needs to be adjusted. Under "Options", find "Number of buttons to configure", and adjust this value to max (128). The coloured hat switches register in high numbers (around and after 90 or so). Assign your preferred keys in AMS2 and map these also within Joy2Key, or vice-versa.

    just want to add that I have the same issue, can't assign the colored sticks to anything in AMS2. Can do it in ACC/AC/RF2/RRRE/iracing ...

    Can confirm; unable to map the coloured hat-switches on the CSL GT DD wheel.

    Also, can anyone tell me, do I need to run the base/wheel in comp mode or PC mode?

    I love AMS2 when it works, but getting it to work properly is wonky :(

    PC mode works fine; the issue with the four hat switches (or whatever they are called) remains though.

    This is just guesswork, but I wonder could it be as simple as AMS2 having an arbitrary limit on the number of controller buttons recognised. As someone above mentioned, these 20 buttons on the GT wheel are (for some unfathomable reason) registered as buttons 89 though 108 (even though it does not make use of any number between 23 and 88 as far as I can tell).

    Is there any other wheel/controller that uses assignments numbered that high to either to either disprove or support that theory?

    Thanks for the reply; not sure if that would be a root-cause, but it kinda does make sense from a dev standpoint, either way, I hope Reiza fix this with a next patch; kind of annoying that it used to work but now doesn't anymore :(

    Anyone find a solution yet that doesn't require 3rd party software?

    No luck for me so far.

    No. I've also raised a bug report about it over here.

    Hi, September 2022 and the issue still happening.
    Could be the number of USB buttons in the GT DD PRO? AMS cant map rone than X number of USB buttons?
    In my case all the Playstation buttons works but not the colored pads; and those maps as button USB 90 and up...

    Yep, still no change on this afaik. Would be nice to be able to map all the extra stuff to the wheel like weight jacker, ARBs, brake balance, etc - still having to use keyboard for a lot of stuff.

    I found a solution when installing Project Cars 2 last week :) It's related to Steam Controller settings. Go into steam to settings, disable all steam controller input. Try again.
    if it doesn't work after that, also remove your controller file in \Documents\Automobilista 2\savegame\..some numbers...\automobilista 2\profiles
    default.controllersettings.v1.03.sav (or make a new controller profile).

    Step 2 won't work without step 1 fyi ;)

    Hi Mattias - I am very interested in your solution, but can't seem to get it to work! I also have a Steam Controller, so this seems a very plausible cause.

    When you say "disable all steam controller input" in Steam settings, where exactly do you mean? I can't see an option to do this in the main steam settings 'Controller' tab. Maybe I am missing something?

    If I right click on AMS2 in my library and go to properties/controller, I can 'Disable Steam Input' as an override for AMS2, but it still shows "Steam Controller - Enabled, always required" down below, so I'm not sure if that is effective.

    I tried that, along with deleting the profile file, but it still does not work for me. Could you provide any extra info? Are you using the Fanatec CSL-DD profile in game? Or Custom? Are you using PC or Compatibility mode on the Fanatec base? I've tried a few different combos but no luck so far.

    Thanks for your help!

    Right click game -> properties -> controller -> Disable Steam Input (OVERRIDE FOR AMS2)
    and yes steam controller will say enabled, the other ones will all be disabled

    wheel settings:
    - pc mode
    - User set control preset with FANATEC CSL DD SPEARATE PEDALS selected as model

    I would also like to confirm I'm also having issues with my Fanatec GT wheel, none of the 4 colored five way switches are working with AMS2, although they work just fine with every other sim racing game. It's a bummer losing 20 inputs.

    Indeed; same here; still no luck; and i refuse using 3rd party software/tools to get it working again. it was working fine shortly after the release of the wheel, then 1.3 came along and it broke.

    Any solution to this yet? I'm also not able to map the inputs an my GT DD Pro Wheel.

    Very sad as this has already worked before but with newest update there is no chance to map the buttons.
