I was last night, but I reflashed. 8 and my issues are no longer present, no framerate drop, and my rev leds are working again.

But the .8 still has frame issues when connected in controller usb port. At least for me with the Gt dd pro it has.
What wheel base are you using?

I was running ffb of 50 and my whole rig was shaking on skids. I went back to .8 beta. Although now the DH lights aren't working right and I seem to have the framerate drop, which I didn't before on 0.8

But if you have the Csl DD , 0.9 has no framerate drop when used with a hori controller like you do. Let's not confuse Podger as his time is probably limited and has to work on other issues.
Again, the only framerate drops that are still present are on the fanatec ps4 compatible bases that are plugged in the first DH usb port.
Even though the DH now sees my DD Pro when plugged into the middle usb port, i still dont get to use the functions on the GT wheel that comes with the base, and the ffb is not the same as when in native mode (plugged into the first usb port).
Is there any way to fix this @Podger ? Seeing you also have the DD Pro yourself 🙏

Framerate drop is one thing, but the shaking wheel base was too much to handle. I'm not trying to confuse anyone, much less @Podger I really appreciate all the work he's put into this. Just giving my honest feedback.

Out of interest, why would you need to use a Drive Hub for the PS4/5 if you own a DD Pro? Are you using some type of Non-Fanatec Pedals/Shifter?
 
Hi, i'm using a Thrustmaster TS-XB Wheelbase and Fanatec CSL Pedals (standard, no Elite) with Drivehub. I just wanted to upgrade to the CLS Load Cell Kit, but it seems not to be supported. Does anybody know if it should work or if a firmware update is planned?
 
I can't acces Fanatec mode as my wheels are both the legacy BMW M3 GT2 and F1 Clubsport formula.
The problem is that both of my wheels have the legacy buttons assignment with the "press touchpad" button mapped instead of the "share" one. Could you please find a solution for these problem just adding another combination to switch between the Fanalogic and Fanatec modes?
I quote the solution for a similar problem taken from the drivehub manual: "We have added a special provision for the Fanatec Porsche GT2 wheel which has the start and back buttons on a rocker switch. Simply press Start and the left d-pad at the same time to engage Fanatec mode".

EDIT : It appears the problem was solved using the Hori gamepad.

I have a CSL DD with DH and it shows up as a DD Pro now in the menu using beta .9, I'm curious if I were to buy a DD Pro wheel I would be able to use all the funcitonality of the wheel(specifically all the colored switches). I'm thinking the answer is no based on your post?

i was playing gt7 on ps4 with my csldd through drivehub like all these past days and suddenly the steering wheel stopped working and i have never been able to get it to work with ps4 anymore. works perfectly on PC. Beta 8 and 9 here.

Edit: Lol, if i plug in the TH8A shifter, the wheel stop work. If i plug off, it works. Wtf! Till the first fault, 0 errors with the th8a in!

Edit2: can confirm the problem is with the th8a shifter. I was playing with it without problem till today. If i plug, never works. When i unplug, the wheel works.

Simply put, No. The Gt wheel extra functions only work on DD Pro while in first usb port (controller port) but then it has frames drop issues.

Thanks for your reply, I had hoped that DH could completely emulate CSL DD as a DD PRO and thus allowing all wheels to work as if they were attached to the DD Pro. .9 seems to solve the frame rate issues for me using csl dd, McLaren gt3 rim, and v3’s.

There are no more framerate issues when the wheel is fanatec mode (middle usb port). I was talking about the fanatec ps4 compatible bases plugged in the controller usb port, are still having framerate issues.

.9 does make the CSL DD emulate the GT DD ingame.

Quick question. When I plug my t500rs it's always set in play mode. No matter what I do, I cannot set it in race mode. Is there something that I'm missing ?

When it boots it's shows the racing mode, then "t" then "5" then 0.

I believe that's normal.
 
Hi @Podger thanks you for continuing to update the Drivehub, I think we are all very grateful for your support. I understand that most users are from Fanatec and that the latest updates have fixed some problems specifically with Fanatec. I am a Thrustmaster user, I have a TSXW wheel on PS4 and I have tried the latest updates such as the 2.08 Beta 8 and Beta 9 but I have almost nothing of FFB and the asphalt and kerbs are not felt at all, only at some moments and very little, the same thing happens to me when I turn the wheel, there is not much FFB and I have the values increased to the maximum. I hope you can help us users who have Thrustmaster. Thank you again for your support.

Force feedback is low even in natively supported wheels

Also make sure you aren’t enabling the controller assists. That turns off force feedback.

Sorry for the question but do I have to disable the control assists? Exactly what?

Hi all,
I'm using an XBOX/PC Thrustmaster Base and used Drivehub for GT7 on PS4 - however updating the latest firmware on Collective Mind's site but I have no FFB and the wheel disconnects randomly - tried a lot of solutions, including plugging into different ports etc but no luck - anyone have any ideas?
 
This might be a long shot, but what would it take to develop and include support for the VRS direct force pro pedals within the Drive Hub Firmware?
I love them to death in iRacing and would like to use them as well in GT7.
 
anyone else has troubles with G25/27 on ps4? I keep having the same issue where everything works except for the throttle...

edit. I'm on the latest beta version
