Well, my G25 arrived the other day and for the life of me I can't see how to set it up in GT6 (or 5 for that matter, I've tried it with both) to use the six speed gear lever.

I know that it won't work with cars that wouldn't have had a manual gearbox IRL but this isn't registering at all with any car.

I've set power steering to on and to professional but when I go into the steering controller options screen it only allows me to configure it with a sequential shifter. This is the same regardless of whether I have the shifter in sequential or six speed mode.

I'm sure there's nothing wrong with the wheel as all functions work correctly when the wheel is tested while connected to the PC.

I'd be grateful for any advice.
 
Does your shifter switch modes properly? There should be a green light which comes on in sequential mode and goes off in H mode (the left one iirc). Does yours do that?
 
Yes, there's a light on each side, one comes on when it's in sequential mode and the other in six speed.
I'm fairly sure the wheel is ok. All the features work perfectly when it's connected to the PC. It's only when I'm trying to use it in GT 5 and GT6 that it doesn't.
Unfortunately I can't tell you whether it's only in GT games or whether other PS3 games have problems as the GT games are the only ones I have on the PS3
 
check all of the plugs on the wheel it may just be a loose connection.

Also you should note that in GT6 there is a bug with custom trannys for stadard cars that makes them sequential/ clutch-less.
 
It should work. Yes you need the shifter to be set properly; my G25 is set so that I may use the paddles or stick shift in the same race.
 
Its not a bug, if you use custom tranny it can only be used in sequential. you should always be able to switch gear type anyway if game/car permits. and also you dont need to do any setting for H shift etc it will work automatically.
 
Do I feel stupid? I was looking in the options screen and assuming that because there were no configuration options for the shifter it wasn't detecting it. I never actually tried using it in the car. It works as it should. D'oh!
Thanks to everybody for their input.
