NextGen Wheels peripherals PS4 and Xbox One Thread: NeoGaf Wheel Club Updates in OP

Nope. The PS4 driver package and documentation are available for free so I guess it is just a low/no priority at Evolution.
If you can get it for a good price I'd say it is worth it. There are better shifters out there, but most of them don't go between sequential and manual modes or are just really expensive. I use sequential mode as an ebrake in DiRT so IMO it is a nice feature to have. Only complaint is the lateral action in manual mode leaves something to be desired. I would have also like a vibration motor since that seems to be Fanatec's thing but whatever.
Nice T150 review / first look:

Pretty thorough. they test F1, PCars, and Driveclub. This is the wheel I have been looking for.

Ah, thanks for the feedback. Very useful!
So what do you guys think at this point: is there still a sliver of hope for G27 support on the PS4 (especially Driveclub) in the near future? Is the whole Immersion patent expiring in November thing still reason to hold out a little longer? Or should I just throw in the towel and go for the T150?
Don't hold your breath. Either Get the G29(highly *NOT* recommended) or get one of the shitty dongles.
Or just say fuck it and come to the master race(PC) and never look back

The CSR Elite is the one that's compatible with all platforms right?
I need a wheel but I refuse to have to chose between whether I support my PS3/4 or Xbox One.
You're thinking of the very expensive Clubsport Wheel (CSW), and that needs a special rim for Bone usage. My CSRE is compatible with 360, PS3 and PS4 (pCARS so far) but not the cockblocked Bone because reasons (MS are dicks).
Tell you what though, I fucking love this wheel. And even more so with the Formula rim.

So you're trying to tell me that if I get the CSW then I need to get a separate rim for use with the Xbox One? And that rim isn't compatible with the PS4/3?

That's pretty silly I have to say. These console markers need to get together and stop this madness that's going on in the wheel peripheral market.

Fanatec is, at present, the only wheel manufacturer that has one wheel base (CSW V2 + XB1 wheel rims) that is compatible with all systems. You will pay over $1,000 for a full set up (base, wheel, pedals, shifter), but IMO you get what you pay for. It is hard to say the CSW V2 is twice as good as a comparable Thrustmaster setup (costs twice as much). Probably not. But it is distinctly better. It is also clearly a couple steps below a true $2,000+ servo wheel. For me, the V2 has been great. I have had terrible experiences with Fanatec "reliability" in the past, but the V2 (and V2 pedals) have been rock solid for over a year, without even a hint of wear.
My CSW V2 does not come with a money printing feature... explain???
Finally some promising news for old Logitech wheel owners!(And yes, this is REAL and TRUE force feedback, not emulated controller rumble).

I'm going to have to go ahead and force myself to admit the fact that I agree with this post^
Very interesting.
So it looks like they've been able to circumvent the G29 security chip authentication issue by using a genuine dualshock4 in conjunction with GIMX to fool the PS4 into thinking its still talking to a G29?
I would've though the PS4 would be able to identify through the authentication process that it was in fact talking to a dualshock therefore block any other devices or emulations. But it seems like (at least for now) the dualshock just provides the key to the system then you can emulate any PS4 compatible controller you like (provided somebody has bothered to write the emulation code).
So far:
EMUJOYSTICKPS3: HID joystick emulation, with 16bit stick axes, for PS3
EMUPS3: Sixaxis emulation, for PS3
EMU360: 360 pad emulation, for Xbox 360
EMUPS4: Hori Pad FPS Plus emulation, for PS4 (with touchpad support)
EMUXONE: Xbox One pad emulation, for Xbox One
EMUG29PS4: Logitech G29 gaming wheel emulation, with force feedback support for Logitech wheels (G27, G25, DFGT...)
Still looks like a PITA to use for now but how long until the functionality of the GMIX software is embedded into an external adapter?
OMFG HOLY MOTHER OF MARY IN HEAVEN I CANT BELIEVE IT WTF WHERE ARE MY SEDATIVES AAAAHHH
Anyway, that looks pretty awesome, I need to read more into that.
Sorry - just saw this!
The wheel came as part of a package with a bunch of stuff I didn't want/need (desk clamp, shifters, shifter mounts, wheel stand, Elite pedals etc etc). I sold off the other bits for more than the overall package originally cost. Ergo: free wheel + cash!

Nice.
Was about to complain about how badly Aussies get shafted, but when comparing the currencies it's about the same price here (actually, a few dollars cheaper). But after conversion... they're still charging way too fucking much :/

Thanks for the link, bought.
Ove been looking at getting a racing rig going and this thread ( along with many other forums and informative media) has helped me craft the decision on my first setup. Gonna go with the Thrustmaster T300RS with the T3pa Pro Pedals to replace the pedal set that comes with them. Thinking of going without the shifter at first. What would some of the more experienced wheel rig owners suggest? Is the shifter really super necessary or just really nice to have?

So, have you guys seen this? G27 + Crosshair https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cfyTAk-mGFE
Looked pretty damn good to me. I'm willing to give it a try. Also you can use keyboard + mouse on PS4 with that thing.

That does look legit and sounds like it does what it's supposed to (not seeing the wheel as a controller, but as an actual wheel), but I just checked the price of the official one:
Yikes.
I think we'll see something a lot cheaper soon, but this looks like the start of proper wheel support without needing a PC. An RPi (or even RPi Zero) solution will be the optimum, tiny DIY solution I think.

Subete no aware
I'm glad people are selling the device, since I don't want to think about making one, but that's pretty damn expensive.
Checked it out, it seems only DC/PCars work properly with it. If I understood it right it will only emulate a controller in Forza 5 MEH!

That doesn't make sense, why would it work with a few games and others not?
Also, playing Battlefront with a mouse and keyboard... got damn.

Quite honestly, maybe it's just ripping off the work from Matlo (GIMX) who I think was the first person to make FFB available and his stuff is open source ... (and what a surprise he doesn't have native FFB for Xbone either).
Also it might support more games, those games are just listed on the official website of the product as tested.
Might just be a coincidence though, who knows.

Do these converters work on Thrustmaster wheels, wondered about getting a TX working on PS4 and finally having a one wheel solution.

BINGO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah, and I think that's only because DC/pCARS are the only PS4 games (currently) that support the G29.
Absolutely, does not surprise me in the slightest. Hoping someone can extract code from these new guys and see if there's any similarities.
*nods*
I still think there's going to be an easy/one-stop way to build this with an RPi, the boards and a case to fit everything in. That they say the box takes 30 seconds to boot up suggests to me that it really is a computer running similar software to GIMX and possibly Linux. A dedicated board shouldn't take that long to boot.
There is (I think it's a Fanatec) but you have to buy an additional physical wheel and replace it each time you want to switch between PS4/PC and XBO.
