Hallo to all GT and sim racing fans! It took me some days to finallize and write down the first part of the four wheel shootout review. My brother and I which are both very much into arcarde racing had tested the Fanatec Turbo, the Fanatec GT3 RS v2, the Logitech G27 and the Logitech Momo Racing FFB wheel several hours all mounted on the Fanatec Rennsport Cockpit.

Here is the long awaited news about PlayStation 4 and Project CARS.
With the ClubSport Wheel V2 you can play all three versions of Project CARS.
Please note that for Xbox One you still need to add a Xbox One compatible steering wheel rim while on the PS4 the wheels will work as they are and you don't even need to put them in PlayStation mode.
The first Xbox One steering wheel will be announced very soon.
Press release:

Slightly Mad Studios and Fanatec are proud to announce today that Project CARS will now support a range of Fanatec hardware on both PlayStation®4 and Xbox One.
'Wheels, pedals, and gear sticks are the natural input devices for racing games; we have an innate knowledge of how they work from real life and they provide the most immersive, authentic experience for gamers.” said Andy Tudor, Creative Director. 'So as we near the launch of Project CARS we’re pleased to announce additional support for the following Fanatec hardware on PC, PlayStation®4 and Xbox One…'
PC & PLAYSTATION®4
Porsche 911 Turbo S
Porsche 911 GT2
Porsche 911 GT3 RS V2
CSR
CSR Elite
PC, PLAYSTATION®4 & XBOX ONE
ClubSport Wheel Base
ClubSport Wheel Base v2
“Gamers have been enjoying the solid build quality, integrated technology, and pure driving sensation of these fantastic products for a while now on PC and previous-generation platforms but through a continued collaboration with the team at Fanatec players are now going to be able to use the wheels they already own or are thinking of purchasing with Project CARS via an update on day one.”
“The quality of the input devices play an important role in the immersion factor of a simulation and especially our ClubSport series delivers an automotive quality and experience level. We are now bringing this level to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One and Project CARS is the perfect title to make best use of our technology. This combination is a new milestone on gaming consoles.” (Thomas Jackermeier, CEO Endor AG / Fanatec)

    So now I'll have to go and buy a PS4 TOO..JUST to play PCars..LoL
  • This is awesome for PS4 owners. And CSWv1 owners. Great job Fanatec!
  • edited March 2015

    I feel sorry for those , PS4, who sold their Fanatec gear to buy the V2 and now..THAT LATE..they come to see that ALL gear works with PS4.

    THINK you could have made that announcement WAY sooner Thomas!

    Will it also work with Driveclub?

    Pretty sure this is only for Pcars. Sony said some games could make older compatibility specifically just for their product if desired. I believe Slightly Mad have done just that.
  • On PS3 and PS4 there is no generic wheel support within the operating system like it is on Xbox 360 or One.
    On PS every game needs to integrate special drivers to make a peripheral work. But it is not difficult to implement those drivers. The challenge for us was to develop those drivers. We now gave the drivers to the game developers and you can expect more compatible games in future.
  • This is awesome!
    Well done Thomas and well done SMS. I think Dillon is right, Sony always said it was up to developers to add support for old HW if they wished to do so and Sony would not block them.
    Eagerly awaiting the X1 rim announcement

    Only wished I knew this 2 weeks SOONER!!!!! Now all LE are sold out for PS4 !!! :-& (

    BUT well done Fanatec team !!! So a firmware update available too pretty soon ?

  • Looks Like i Will Be Getting a PS4 This Afternoon!!!
  • I'll have to get a PCars LE somewhere before I buy a PS4

  • Das sind doch mal Topp News. Freut mich das es für die PS4 Benutzer solch einen breiten Support gibt.
  • Awesome news !
    I hope will also works on Driveclub, I know it's pure arcade but is fun !
    Real simulators like Pcars for me is better on PC.
    Hope the XB1 rim will be realease very soon !
    Thank You to all Fanatec team for the great work !
  • Wow, what a great news! I love you all fanatec folks, including you, Thomas!
    I am eager for the Xbox one wheel, but I can still have fun either on PC or PS4!
    Fortunately I have all 3 platforms.
    Good job Thomas!
  • Merci Thomas ;-) et toutes votre équipe , merci aussi pour la qualité des volants
  • Also great the V1 and V1.5 base will work with XOne
  • the PS4 compatibility , is it just for Project Cars or other games like DriveClub , The Crew ...etc ????
    I think we just have to waait for the new firmware ........!!!!

  • The Formula Carbon might not have been the best picture to show for the CSW base compatibility. People will assume older rims will work with X1.
  • Fantastic news ! Pity I went out and purchased TM T300 & T3PA pedals, never thought it would happen in time for pcars, should have had more faith in Fanatec. I've also just ordered a CPX adapter , to use the CS pedals with the T300. Teach me not to panic, all a waste of money now.
  • Just sell em Granville..I know it'll be sold quickly

    There will be more offers which make you come back. At least you still have the right pedals
  • Wochenlang ungerechtfertigt verbale Prügel bezogen und jetzt die Nörgler mit einer News mundtot gemacht. *Applaus* ;-)
    Mein altes CSR ist direkt ein wenig mehr Wert beim Verkauf, ist schließlich nun auch kompatibel zur PS4. Fehlt nur noch das Xbox One Lenkrad für meine V2 Basis und ich kann endlich wieder Platz in meinem CSL nehmen. Laufe aber noch 'schwanger' damit ob ich mir nicht den neuen Shifter auch noch zulegen soll und zwar als Kombination H-Schaltung und Sequentiell.
    Warte aber erst noch das Lenkrad für die One ab. Das wird sowieso sofort bestellt wenn es im Shop verfügbar ist. Ich höre von Euch. :-)
  • Just sell em Granville..I know it'll be sold quickly
    Yes you are probably right, I was on a waiting list for the CPX adapter, 6 months !!!!!
    I wonder if Fanatec will make dedicated PS4 GT rim, slightly smaller and lighter than the BMW rim would be perfect.
  • edited March 2015
    Now the question is does the Xbox wheel work on PC/PS4 if it just needs PC mode on PS4 it culd be one wheel to rule them all, or if I should just by a PC/PS4 wheel now and the xbox one later. I guess I can just use my Turbo S on PS4 in hte meantime for project cars, still haven't preordered any version yet, may wait for xbox wheel info, it is better to use Xbox version because that can stay on a separate TV.

    Not sold my Fanatec gear Thomas, V2 is to good to sell, just needed to be able to play pcars on PS4 day one ! I'll sell my Thrustmaster gear now. Really pleased I can use the V2 on pcars now.

    @Thomas:
    Just to clarify will the following hardware work on PS4 (Project Cars) once attached to the CWB V2?
    - Clubsport Pedal V2

    Because I don't see on Project Cars website any mention on the pedals and the shifter under PS4 (while it is there on PC), just the wheel..it would be really a shame if I can't use the shifter but maybe it's just a matter of time

    They should all work but I haven't tested it yet
  • If the X1 rim will work with the v1 for Pcars, does that mean the v1 base will work on Forza 5/6 also?

    The CPX is worth it's money in GOLD Granville..put it on e bay or similar and it'll go trough the roof !!!

    @ Thomas..could you please please please let us XBoxers know that it is possible to have an XOne rim at home when PCars hits the shelves...cause I'm allready mailing people for a second hand PS4..real frustrating to be kept in the dark..


    YEAH YEAH I know..I chose so BUT STILL

7th gear cannot be calibrated/used on my wheelDer 7. Gang kann nicht kalibriert/verwendet werden7th gear cannot be calibrated/used on my wheel

All Porsche and CSR Wheels do not support the 7th (locked) gear of the ClubSport Shifter shifter. Only the ClubSport Wheel and later products will support all gears of the ClubSport Shifter. Sadly this cannot be solved by a new firmware. The gears R-6 kann be used perfectly normal on all Fanatec CSR and Porsche Wheels on any platform.

On the Playstation 3 the 7th gear is not supported in general.

Alle Porsche und CSR Wheels unterstützen den (verriegelten) 7. Gang des CSS (SQ) leider nicht. Nur das ClubSport Wheel und spätere Produkte unterstützen alle Gänge des ClubSport Shifters. Leider kann dies nicht durch ein Firmware Update gelöst werden. Die Gänge R-6 können auf allen Porsche und CSR Wheels auf allen Plattformen normal verwendet werden.

Auf der Playstation 3 wird der 7. Gang generell nicht unterstützt.

全てのPorsche 及び CSR ステアリングコントローラー では ClubSport Shifterの7th (ロックド) ギア をサポートしません。. ClubSports とそれ以降の 商品がwillClubSport Shifterのすべてのギアをサポートします。この問題は残念ながらfirmware更新では解決できません。 R-6ギア に関してはすべての プラットフォーム上のFanatec CSR、Porsche ステアリングコントローラー.で問題なく使用可能となっております。

Playstation 3 では7thギアは一般的にサポートされません。

(Strange) force feedback in SimBin/ISI titles (Race 07 series, GTR, STCC, WTCC etc.)(Eigenartiges) Force Feedback in SimBin/ISI Rennspielen (Race 07 series, GTR, STCC, WTCC etc.)(Strange) SimBin/ISI games force feedback (Race 07 series, GTR, STCC, WTCC etc.)

Some games do not automatically select 'reversed force feedback' which is the common system of modern force feedback wheels. If this option is not selected in the game's force feedback menu the effects will feel very strange. Every effect will move into the oposite direction as intended. To resolve this issue please navigate into the force feedback menu of the game and enable reversed force feedback.

This option must also be selected in other (PC) games which can set this function. In most SimBin games you do find the setting when you follow this route:
Options -> control settings -> advanced -> force feedback -> 'reverse effects' = enabled
This setting is also present in many older games and must be set identically.
Sometimes this setting is also integrated in a slider (rFactor) - in this case the FFB must be set from +100% to -100%

Manche Spiele aktivieren nicht automatisch die Funtion für umgekehrtes Force Feedback, welches das gängige System für aktuelle Lenkrad-Hardware darstellt. Wenn diese Option im Spiel nicht gewählt ist, werden sich die Effekte sehr eigenartig anfühlen und agieren genau umgekehrt. Um das Problem zu lösen, navigieren sie bitte in das Force Feedback Menu des Spiels und aktivieren sie die Funktion: 'Effekte umkehren'

Diese Option muss ebenso in anderen (PC) Spielen gewählt werden, welche diese Einstellung bieten. In den meisten SimBin Spielen finden sie diese Option in folgendem Untermenu:
Optionen -> Steuerungseinstellungen -> Erweitert -> Force Feedback -> 'Effekte umkehren' = aktivieren
Englisch: Options -> control settings -> advanced -> force feedback -> 'reverse effects' = enabled
Diese Option ist in vielen älteren Spielen vorhanden und muss ggf. gleichermaßen eingestellt werden.
In manchen Spielen ist diese Option in einem Schieberegler integriert. In diesem Fall muss der FFB Wert von +100% auf -100% gesetzt werden.

いくつかのゲームは自動的に 'reversed force feedback' を選択しません。'reversed force feedback'がモダンな feedbackステアリングコントローラーで標準的であるにもかかわらずです。 もしこのオープション設定をゲームのforce feedbackメニューで行わない場合、force feedback効果は極めておかしな動きとなります。 すべの効果は意図した逆の方向へ作用します。もの問題の解決のためにはゲームのforce feedbackメニューでenable reversed force feedback.を選択ください。 

その他の PCゲームでも同様に設定ください。ほとんどの SimBin のゲームでは 以下のメニューパスで設定できます。:
Options -> control settings -> advanced -> force feedback -> 'reverse effects' = enabled
この設定はその他の古いたくさんのゲームに存在しますが同様に設定ください。 force feedbackの方向をスライダー形式で設定するアプリケーション、例えば(rFactor)ではスライダーでFFB を +100% から -100%へ変更ください。

How much space does the internal table clamp of Porsche and CSR wheels need?

All Porsche Wheels and the (standard) CSR Wheel feature an internal table clamp if the wheel should be mounted to a table. Aternatively you can mount the wheel with M6 screws using the drilling template which can be found in the download section.

The minimum plate thickness for the table clamp is ~3mm
The maximum plate thickness for the table clamp is 47mm
On the bottom side of the table plate the clamp needs 86mm depth to be mounted properly.


You can find a mechanical drawing about the clamp and these measurements inside the download section of your wheel.
If you table does not fulfull these requirements, please check the ClubSport Table Clamp V2 which could be the perfectly stable solution for you.
