1st of all I hope you don´t feel bad for putting this thread here, instead of putting it on the Sim Racing Hardware "Folder"...

It happens that I was using previously on my PS4, the TH8a Shifter (connected to 2nd USB Port) with T500RS for playing Gran Turismo Sport, with no problems at all!

I changed my wheel to a Fanatec CSL ELITE PS4 compatible, and ... TH8a Shifter is no more working on Grand Turismo Sport!!!! No feed at all!!! :( Is there some added procedure that I´m missing??? If I use the Wheel and the Shifter on my PC they both work fine with those racing simulators that may use it... but on PS4 and with GTS... is like TH8a does´nt exist... :(

Is there any way, software procedure/routine or a gadget to connect the shifter to the Fanatec ELITE Base, for example??

Can FANATEC wheel be configured to accept the shifter as "it´s side" on the PS4 GTS game?? (I know that it may be configured for such on PC.. but that setting will not be of any use on the PS4.. I think!!! (or am I wrong??)
 
I think your only solution is to use something like the Chronusmax DriveHub, but in this case it will emulate a G29 wheel (I think) but now the Fanatec wheel begins to be supported by the game it's a little sad..

Or you can sell your TH8a and buy the Fanatec shifter ;)

But with Drivehub I think that the CSL ELite not only will be considered as a G29 as the FFB response and feel will be considerably diminished.. won´t it?? It will be like having to set a horse to run and jump like a .. mule.. or donkey... just to be able to use it... :(

and Fanatec Shifter costs more than 260 euros plus delivery costs... noway...

It´s a pity that GTS has nt got what Dirt 4 has... A Device Manager that recognizes practically everything connected to the PS4 and let´s you configure it with full detail!!! With this game the shifter works fine with any PS4 wheel combination... you may even change it to act like an Hand brake!! Very good and detailed configuration of everything in this game... An example that all other PS4 racing games should follow!!!!
