G920 Steering Wheel

[pete]

I've just attached a Logitech G920 steering wheel, pedals and gear shifter. Despite the information saying that this was supported, when I open up cruden the shifter doesn't work (the gears are operated vial the paddles) the clutch pedal is the accelerator and the accelerator pedal is the brake and there is no clutch.

Any ideas how I can configure this to drive like a regular UK right-hand drive vehicle?

Hi Pete,

Welcome to the PantheraFree forum. The calibration values for the G920 can be found in the folder data->controls->g920.ini". Here you should be able to change the "button=.." values to swap throttle, brake and clutch and calibrate the min- and max values. When you press "Shift + ~" in Panthera when you're in a session, you can type "debug " (with the space) and press enter to get a debug menu in the left upper corner. You can then browse through this menu, for example by typing "debug controls", and see what the actual values of throttle, brake, etc. are. In the full version, there is a more sophisticated calibration tool, but I hope you can get it to work using these guidelines.

We have a right-hand drive vehicle as well, but it's not standard supported in the free version. However, I can maybe send you this if you send me a pm with you email address.

Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Jelle

Hi Pete, Jelle will do a great job helping you with the UK-rhd vehicle, However all forum members can also use the recipe below:

in Cruden\Panthera\data\cars\cruden_generic_sedan\car.ini

line 98: file=exterior_rhd.dof
line 112: file=interior_rhd.dof
line 507: x=-0.378
line 859: pos=-0.3775 0.67 -0.18175
line 865: file=driver_body_rhd.dof
line 1107 & 1113: x=-0.374

in Cruden\Panthera\data\cars\cruden_generic_sedan\views.ini
-comment line 147 uncomment 148
-159 & 183 x=-0.377
-comment line 346 uncomment 347
-comment line 392 uncomment 394
-comment line 729 uncomment 731
-comment line 934 uncomment 935
-comment line 990 uncomment 992

Have fun!

Hi, is there a possibility to use two USB inputs on the PC wen running PanteraFree? I would like to hook up the pedals and the steering wheel parallel. But that is not working. So I am using clubsport pedals and plugged them in to my Fanatec GT3 RS wheel wich is then hooked up to the PC. How ever its not working properly either. I figured out how to program the buttons on the steering Wheel thanks to the post above. but I cant configure the breaks to the clubsport pedals. I can only use the gas pedal wich is configured as "Button =-1;". does any one know what Button number the break and the clutch have? Do they even have a own number or is the plug-in-port on the steering wheel considered as "-1"?
Thank you for any help!

Hi Nic,

I think this should be possible. What could maybe help you is the calibration procedure in Menu. To enable this:

- First switch of PantheraFree completely
- Open the racer.ini file and set gadgets.menu=1 and menu.show_buttons=1
- Restart PantheraFree by double-clicking the panthera.exe file
- You should now see a menu with buttons
- Here you can select Options -> Controls -> Profile1 -> Ok/Save
- Then you can go to Controls -> Profile1 -> Next
- You can now click on one of the signals for calibration (for example Brake)
- The button you press is the one that will be used for this specific signal
- Click Ok/Save when you are ready
- The settings are stored in the folder data->controls->profile1.ini
- You can manually copy them to the ini file that is used (this is chosen in SessionManager normally: mouse, g27 or g920)
- Restart PantheraFree and it should work
