No. Xbox and PC only. You could use it on PS4 with a drivehub though.Is the csl dd compatible with playstation if i buy a ps4 compatible wheel?
'PS4 compatible wheels' is not really the right way to say it, because all our wheels have this potential. The PlayStation security chip is located in the wheel base. Therefore any supported Fanatec steering wheel, including those which are Xbox-licensed, can be used on a PlayStation-compatible wheel base. This is why all our wheels are marked 'PS Ready'. The wheels specially made for PlayStation-licensed packages, e.g. the wheel from the 'Gran Turismo DD Pro', or the wheel from the 'Podium Racing Wheel F1', do not contain any electronics that activate PlayStation compatibility. It is always the wheel base in these packages that activates the compatibility.Is the csl dd compatible with playstation if i buy a ps4 compatible wheel?
Each wheel manufacturer (and sometimes specific wheel) has its own SDK. It’s basically a way of taking the stuff the game says and translating that into things that happen on the wheel (and vice versa).Pretty sure that is going to be dependant on the API provided by the wheel manufacturer. They are the ones tuning drivers and firmware. The game is probably only sending FFB triggers generated by the game's code to the API and let it handle the rest of how it talks to the device.
Then in theory as the game's developer you'll never have to bother with fine tuning FFB for a specific device. At the most you'd have to update your code to account for API changes.
(I'm not a coder btw. - and my experience with game programmers is that they hack and hardcode a lot and then grow grey hair debugging their own botched solutions, ha!)
I assume this base is the same as the CSL Elite PS4 in that if I have an Xbox compatible rim I can play with it on Xbox?'PS4 compatible wheels' is not really the right way to say it, because all our wheels have this potential.

Yes that's correct. If you use an Xbox-licensed wheel with a PlayStation-licensed wheel base, everything that is connected to the base is compatible with Xbox, PlayStation, and PC.I assume this base is the same as the CSL Elite PS4 in that if I have an Xbox compatible rim I can play with it on Xbox?
Oh yeah, I meant API as a component of an SDK. The API should be the part that's used for 'talking' to the wheel.Each wheel manufacturer (and sometimes specific wheel) has its own SDK. It’s basically a way of taking the stuff the game says and translating that into things that happen on the wheel (and vice versa).
To work with a PlayStation you need a PlayStation licensed wheelbase. To work with an Xbox you need an Xbox lisenced wheel.Wait whaaat?!
So then the same goes in the other way?
Excellent, when a stand-alone version finally becomes available I’m upgrading from my CSL Elite thenYes that's correct. If you use an Xbox-licensed wheel with a PlayStation-licensed wheel base, everything that is connected to the base is compatible with Xbox, PlayStation, and PC.
Just try my settings below and see what it feels like, and then adjust some of them wheel settings to suit your liking.Only found this thread today after a couple of weeks with the wheel and didn’t realise there were recommended settings. Applied them and kind of astounded how different it feels. It’s more visceral, much more detail in the road and understeer isn’t as horribly stiff and annoying. I like those things. But it does feel a bit more rattly and loose. Hard to explain. Before with auto set it was like driving a Ford focus, now it’s like driving a go kart. An imperfect analogy but best I can do. I need to play around but I’ve got no idea really what everything does I just copy pasted, and with Gt7 coming Friday I’m not sure how that will react.
Got my DD yesterday. Put it through its paces in both ACC and GTS. It definitely feels better in ACC. It was better in GTS than my now old CSL elite belt driven base, but not by much. Like you said, once I plugged in the recommended settings, it felt a little unnatural. I tried Z28 gaming’s settings, and they felt good, but not quite the strength I was looking for. I’ll try the other settings that got posted tonight.Only found this thread today after a couple of weeks with the wheel and didn’t realise there were recommended settings.

Try to be happy if that is the stress you feel these days. 😅Everyday that goes by without any news about the standalone DD Pro base is a stressful day
Drowning myself into videogames as a self-defense mechanism 🙃Try to be happy if that is the stress you feel these days. 😅
EU, with very quick shipping.Btw I am curious does Fanatec ship from an EU warehouse, or will I have to pay import taxes?

This looks encouraging.
Just got the same email.Im in America, and ordered the gt DD pro premium bundle on Feb 9th, just got an email from fanatec saying the load cell cargo ship from china has been delayed, thus the whole bundle has been delayed until April 7th. Guess the t-300 needs to hold up for one more month.
