    Hi there,

    I've recently rebuilt my computer and upon installation of Automobilista I can not get the software to recognise my SimSteering wheel when setting Left & Right steering.

    I removed all other USB devices so it's just my pedals & wheel and still nothing (thinking there may be a USB limitation like the days of old). I'm having the same issue with the BETA version also.

    Any help or advise would be great. Thank you

    p.s. Wheel is working fine in DIRT, pCARS & iRacing.

    I'll give it a shot, remember - brand new computer, fresh install so no legacy files, profiles or config files.

    I will do this and let you know. Thanks.

    I run their pedals & hand brake and they're always quick with email responses and service is always top notch. I just want to use the correct channel rather than hit them up direct for something that while they contribute to is not their core business.

    I'll give the deadzone settings a go Denis. Thank you.

    Edit: Pedals & all other inputs work fine, including my HE hand brake.

    As I was trying to adjust the dead zone I realised it's not going to do anything as the wheel needs to be mapped for those settings to be applied. In the end no difference. Still not being recognised.

    Resolved. I changed my rotation in the Sim Steering software to 900 degrees from 360 and was able to gave the game recognise the wheel after a few full turns.
