"What does the rotary dial do? The dial sends out a series of button presses, one set when turning left, another when turning right."Anything about using the shifter? The g27 shifter works out of the box, but the buttons do nothing, the G25 shifter can be used with an adapter (I think, I did not test it)".Sensor like the Thrustmaster and Fanatec wheels. "Does the wheel have an encoder like the G27? I believe it uses a hall effect.The G27 only allows the d-pad to go left or down at once, so only one button can be held down (there are 4 buttons under the dpad), now you can press left and down together holding down both buttons at once. Unlike the G27, the d-pad on G29 and G920 wheels can be pressed left and down at the same time.G29 pedals may or may not need to be depressed once to calibrate - yet to confirm.Yet to confirm, G29 pedals may be 12 bit (0-4095) G29 pedals may have a higher resolution than G27 pedals.12 is a good starting point.Īlso read F9 - FFB AUTO STRENGTH SETTING on FFB page. Set the force slider in-sim between 8 and 20 depending on car and track.Set damping in-sim between 10 and 15% (see notes on Logitech G27 and FFB pages).He also suggests his force map file (Wheel Profile note on G27 page - ) will have little impact.Ī friend using a Wheel Profile does like it better. David Tucker (iRacing staffer) noted to me that "min force" setting doesn't help this wheel.īasically the forces are as good as they can be, quite good in fact.Like the G27, I'm told the G29 will calibrate in-sim to less than 900 which results in 1:1 rotation in-sim. The FFB information described on my Logitech G27 and FFB pages will help with G29 too.In the LGS "G29" tab, ensure "Wheel Operating Range" is set to 900.I'm told you'll have no FFB without the profiler (LGS) running - I've yet to confirm it. Use Logitech Gaming Software (LGS) version 8.xxx for G29 (not v5.xxx used with G27).Very disappointing to hear.I've helped someone fix their G29 issue by swapping USB ports, now using USB2 instead of USB3.Ī Logitech G29 overview as I understand. Saving different desktop profiler settings depending on the game is a huge plus too. I wonder if someone will step up and crack the 27 profiler software to make it compatible with the new wheels.Īs I did with the G27, I use the desktop profiler for my T300 as the primary settings (degrees rotation, FFB feel, etc.) and then scale those settings up or down in the game itself depending on the type of car I'm racing. The only difference of course being the rim itself. Seems to me with that decision it means that they were targeting the wheels for the consoles first and PCs as secondary afterthought.īut hardware wise, according to a review I read last fall that included a tear-down, the 27 and 29/920 share the same internal components. That's a huge miss by Logitech, who just a few years ago claimed they were getting out of the gaming peripheral device business altogether. I suspected it was software related but was not aware there was no desktop profiler for the 29/920. G27 have destkop profiler software, g29 doesn't. Is yours the same?Īlso if I turn left and right very quickly there is a click every time is do it. I tried it on the drive club game and when the wheel vibration is on, the wheel makes a terrible noise. For simulations (not racing) I think that g27 is better option. But unfortunately when I'm playing ETS2/ATS or other simulation games through city it doesn't feel smooth because you are making tiny moves while in races you are usually spinning like crazy. So when I'm racing f1 2015/ Dirt Rally or Project Cars it's great. Did you solve the problem?Īpparently g29 is "advanced" version of g25/g27 which means it's great for racing. That is happening while i'm not in game so I would expect that it's same on both sides. With that grumpy feeling (its not smooth completely) I hear sound a bit louder then on left side. So basically what I noticed is that when i turn right I can feel a bit grumpy feeling, while on left it's completely smooth. So I'm noob with wheels but I wanted long-term buy.
