Struggling to get my CSR Elite to work with GT6. Plug in turn on, into PS3 mode. Buttons and daps work fine in the menus, but pedals and steering don't work. Any suggestions.
I will check back on this with turbo S wheel next week. FFB felt weaker or smoother in GT6. Curb FFB was destroyed already by a patch in GT5.(someone complained about wheels shaking in straights and then they just muted it everywhere)
Something else which is weird, when on the PS3 home screen it's like I'm always pressing down on the dpad. Whichever icon I choose it always scrolls straight to the bottom option. This doesn't happen in the gt6 menus.The CSR-E is not working??? That is very worrying. I am waiting for UPS to deliver GT6 so I can't test my CSR-E yet. What firmware are you using? Didn't some of the later firmwares change the button assignments on the PC mode that may be the issue? Not sure if that would affect PS3 mode though.
Thought I was in PS3 mode but been a while since I used it on PS3. You hold the connect and back button (two buttons on left of display) together right?@PzR Slim Are you in PS3 mode or PC mode? For me whenever the cursor scrolls to the bottom means it's in PC mode.

lol, what a noob I am. Went back upto try again and suddenly realised that I hadn't been putting in PC mode before PS3 mode. Doh! Told you it had been a while. Came back to post my idiocy and see you had already worked that out!From the CSR-E Manual:
After the self calibration enter the PC mode by pressing Back Button for
one second. "- - -" will disappear on the display
Press Connect Button + Back Button simultaneously. A dot in the display
indicates the PS3 mode.
Glad it worked! 👍 Was getting worried mine wouldn't work for when I finally get the game! (Note to self: Maybe try ordering off the internet next time...) See you guys on the track!lol, what a noob I am. Went back upto try again and suddenly realised that I hadn't been putting in PC mode before PS3 mode. Doh! Told you it had been a while.

Too bad my copy ordered from Amazon for launch delivery hasn't arrived
The Fanatec CSR-Elite is just lifeless in GT6. I can only feel spring effect and a ever so slight feeling of the most bumpy curbs. Very disappointing. I have a old Turbo S I may try, but can't see how it will be any better.
Has anyone tried turning on power steering inside GT6? I know that in GT5 it did almost nothing for the G25 and therefore Fanatec wheels, but perhaps in GT6 it will reduce the overpowering centering spring and balance out forces better?
yah GT6 has the worst FFB ever for Fanatec wheels,only center spring for me is working,, no curb feeling or anything else at all![]()
It´s as stuttery as the demo also if you run it at 720P?
I just rage quit playing out of frustration of not feeling the car and getting surprised by watch happening on the screen. I could not complete a lap nicely as is. Went back to PC and did fine in pCARS and AC and felt a lot more.
So thus far my gripes are...
- Sucky FFB with anything else than a T500
- Bad low speed tyre model. Or so it feels/seems like with the CSW.
- Bad sound. Tyre squeal doesn't tell you anything about where you are in relation to the max gripping point. So with sucky FFB there is no way to control the car and you just need to wait for the spin or under perform yourself.
- Vacuum cleaners
- Stutters
- Lastly the still horrible clutch modeling. Or rather lack off. Missed shift galore still.
GT6 doesn't make me enjoy my Fanatec gear at all so far.![]()
Well, that sucks. How does it compare to the GTA demo. I thought that was alright.
In the ps3 menu just set the res to 720p. Only way for me to get the demo somewhat playable...I run it at 1080p@60hz (according to my TV) here as that is what the game puts out. Never knew the game had that kind of option though. I don't know what the FPS are, but I reckon 30 else I wouldn't get tearing.
GTA demo felt like GT6 on Amateur FFB setting, weight transfer based. Haven't tried the GTA demo with the T500 at the time though. Might have to at some point.
Actually I just went back to Amateur and to me the FFB felt more predictable and controllable. Will try professional next.
To me this kinda verifies that the Simulation option might be broken for Logitech and Fanatec wheels.
Edit:
I have to correct myself with the above. The demo plays like the Professional mode.
The professional mode feels a lot better (not T500 Simulation better though) than the simulation mode. Very strange.![]()
Temporary Solution: Bad FFB CSW in GT6
Guys, I found the (temp) fix for our GT6 FFB issue.
What you need to do is flash back your CSW to Firmware v32.
Firmwares: http://eu.fanatec.com/RacingWheels/ClubSportWheelBaseEU
The following difference between firmware v32 and v37 are the key to this fix.
Firmware 32: Emulation of Logitech G25 in PS3 Mode (no working rev lights (G25 didn't have any))
Firmware 37: Emulation of Logitech G27 in PS3 Mode (with working rev lights)
So what this means is that basically the G25 works fine and has a working Simulation FFB mode in GT6, while the G27 users have a messed up Simulation FFB mode in GT6.
This means that when you flash back you loose the rev lights, but I shift on hear or the on screen light instead myself. So I rather have a working FFB system instead so I can enjoy the game.
So all you got to do is download the firmware from the Fanatec site, follow the documented instructions included in the ZIP archive.
Make sure that after you rebooted your wheel you...
a) Reset your profile by holding down the tuning menu button while S_1 is displayed
b) Recalibrate the center of the wheel by putting the wheel in the center and hitting both thumb sticks while S_1 is being displayed
c) Recalibrate your H-shifter
d) Please don't forget to enjoy GT6
Personally I initially used Simulation, with Powersteering, Strength 10 in game and on the wheel FOR 100. Which equals to about the same feel I had with the T500, though I feel that the T500 is slightly sharper/spiky'er on the curb rumble in general (so not game related, but device firmware related).
Anyways... happy driving guys.![]()
would the g27 be screwed up itself too? Might be a piece of info worth posting in the general gt6 forum.
Meh, GT3 RS v2 users are not affected when switching back to old fw to get G25 emulation? Tried both fw 681 and 756 but both are very bad for GT6 .. As said, no curb feeling, only center spring...
