A question for anyone that has the Fanatec Mclaren CSL Steering Wheel GT3.

I used to be able to look left and right by setting the middle rotary encoder to 'D' using the clutch paddles to look left and right.

However, after I recently did a firmware update on my wheel base and wheel this does not work anymore. Does anyone know how to get this to work again? Is there a setting somewhere that I am missing on the fanatac app?
I would suggest you report this here:
 
According to Jordan's article on the subject apparently the DD Pro did get the Full Force update. Saying that however, I cannot say I have noticed anything different since the firmware update.
The DD Pro is planned to receive FullForce, but it hasn't yet. It's kind of confusing how this was worded in the press release I received from Fanatec. I'll update my article text so this is more clear.
 
Finally had the time to do the update with my DD+. Both the uninstall of the old app version and the installation of the new one went flawlessly, as did updating my base, wheels, and wireless QR. Only had time to drive about 30 minutes in iRacing and was using the Indy car, so not sure how big of a difference the additional torque was making, if any. Need to jump on GT7 in a car and settings I'm more familiar with, but I sure was happy everything went smoothly.
 
Probably the installer inteself; it didn't detect required packages and failed because the supplied versions are older than what you get through windows upadated.

That was certainly a big part of it but a number of both app and FW issues also reported, so if that’s all they address won’t be the end of complaints
 
Crazy. Like I said above, I just installed it a few days ago without any problems.
I know less than zero about PCs and coding etc., but I always find it wild how so many people have no problems while others do when trying to install/update the same things.
