Drive Hub Racing Wheel Converter

Does anyone know if the fanatec h shifter definitely works with ps5 g pro base and drivehub? I’m ready to move on from the Logitech h shifter.

Should work great. You’ll just need the Fanatec USB adapter for the shifter to connect to the drive hub.

Just got a drivehub, updated to latest beta firmware and my CSL DD still says g29 no matter if it's in fanatec mode or not. The drivehub scrolls to say GT DD pro but gt7 shows g29 in the wheel settings. Should I reflash the firmware?
Also hoping that the simjack ultimate pedals are supported soon as currently plugging them in stops everything working.

You need to switch the drivehub from FanaLogic mode to Fanatec mode.

It doesn't work in fanatec mode, drivehub scrolls saying GT DD pro but in gt7 still says g29

Does anyone know if the Simagic P1000 pedals are working w/ dDrivehub? I notice they're listed as compatible on the site but I want to make sure before I make a purchase.

Also I can confirm that plugging in the TH8A shifter and TSS handbrake into a USB hub works in GT7

I wouldn't take the chance yet. I cannot get the Simagic shifter to work. Collective Minds has been working on it for a few weeks. Podger is super busy but they said it's being addressed.

Does anyone know if drive hub supports BDH H1 shifter on PS5? I have Logitech g pro wheel and BDH H1 shifter that I would love to use in GT7. I don't have the drive hub at the moment, but I will order one if anyone can confirm.

Hello, has anyone connected a moza r5 steering wheel to a ps3?

That one is not listed on their web site so I doubt it works. Wish I had a unit that nice to try!

In the past @Podger has been able to work with people if they have the product they can capture cpu data from it and send it to him. Podger can often get it going. But he’s gone from here at least. Try to contact collective minds. Just because it’s not on the list, doesn’t mean it can’t be added with the right data.

Thanks for the reply. I sent an email to the support team, but haven't heard anything back. I also tagged @Podger initially, but edited it out after I saw that he's missing in action. That's too bad, but because I would be willing to buy it (even if it doesn't work out of the box, but I can work with the dev directly). I assume this isn't open sourced in github or anything?

Also, looking at boosted media's youtube clip, I believe the shifter uses a generic usb encoder board, so I was somewhat hopeful that the drive hub supports it somehow. I'm not 100% sure, but looking at the youtube clip, I think it's this one:

Zero Delay Arcade USB Encoder PC to Joystick MAME 5Pin Sanwa Push Button +Cable | eBay

The Zero delay is the most cost effective encoder option available. Also a great encoder for making a fight stick. It is plug and play, lag free and very compact. USB Encoder Joystick( without cable).

Checking the thread back, there was some issues raised regarding the FFB on CSL DD following the 1.49 physics update. Can anyone say if these have since been resolved?

Looking to upgrade from a TS-PC, which has worked flawlessly with DH since the beginning. CSL DD 8mn looks like the best budget candidate, but most of my rig-time is spent on GT7

 

[Vitaliykuklin]

Has anyone played Gran Turismo 5 and 6 on a Moza R5 steering wheel? Is there feedback?

 

[Foreversimmin]

Did Simagic p1000 pedals ever worked with drivehub? If it did, when did it stop working (it is listed as compatible on CM’s site)? I just bought both and it does not work on ps5. I have the native GT DD Pro base/wheel so that works as it’s suppose to but inputs from the Simagic p1000 is non-existent.

 

[3diamondS]

As far as I know, nothing from Simagic works. I'm in the same boat with the shifter.

 

[EricTheActor]

Unfortunately the main guy who could answer and make firmware updates to add devices, is no longer active on here. This was the conduit to all questions. He helped me get my Frex going, and other settings. He was awesome and helped everyone. Alas, CM doesn’t seem to have any replacement for him. I know nothing about the company but obviously people are still buying hubs. I hope he is ok. Creative minds would continue to sell more hubs if someone reappeared on here. A lot of people make their decision to buy one based solely on this thread. Myself included.

 

[3diamondS]

I've held off on bothering CM because they didn't have answers, and I felt like I was bothering their customer service team. They assured me the issues would be addressed soon. I was so confident that Simagic would work because the VNM shifter works perfectly with the G Pro. I feel they should remove items from the compatibility list if they are not working. If I didn't already have a great shifter I'd be more upset. I've chosen to ride this out and be patient. I truly hope they sort the Simagic stuff out because my next purchase is the p1000 pedals. Fingers crossed.

Yea I hear you. I based my purchase of the p1000 pedals on the fact that it was on the compatibility list since I’m mainly on console. I do plan on getting a PC at some point so it’s not a complete waste. PC definitely allows for less headaches in terms of mix and matching products. But it is definitely not a great business practice for CM to keep invalid information online. Just kinda bummed that I can’t use/test the new pedals.

 

[EricTheActor]

I realized I could look back in conversation and I want to share what I learned. This may help, but obviously not to fruition without CM or someone updating.

I hope this helps at least verify possible compatibility. But once you capture the needed data, still need someone to input it.

I have a Drive Hub firmware update problem! I can't update and since then I can't even shield from the firmware update flashing all the green LED's on my hand. I tried on a laptop with two USB ports. I need help. Thank you!

Did you try using the creativeminds web updater tool using Chome, instead of the download shown in the video. Steps are the same.

I wish they could open source it. I've seen some smart people who can take these things to the next level.

Took the plunge and upgraded to a CSL DD 8nm, and some other goodies.

Problem: After a few seconds, no input was being accepted from the wheel, in PC mode or compatibility mode. Even if pedals and shifter wasn't connected. Noticed when trying again today, the green LEDs on the back were going out at the same moment the DH stopped accepting inputs from the wheel.

Solution: Plugged a powered USB hub into the accessory port. Immediately, everything works correctly, running latest beta (2.1.2 beta 37). Wheel recognised as the GT DD Pro, working with T-Lcm pedals + Fanatec shifter. This has persisted through several equipment restarts, so I'm confident its no longer an issue.

Prior to this I tried a new USB cable (no change), earlier CSL DD firmware revisions (no change), and reverting to an earlier DH firmware (2.1.1, and I think 2.1.2 beta 21). The earlier firmware versions worked but FFB wasn't feeling right.
