T500RS ferrari add on question

[jgancherjr]

Is the Ferrari add on wheel compatible with gt5? If so does it change the degree of rotation? Thanks in advance-

Just bumping this to see if anyone might know that's on this evening

Thanks parabulla but that is for PC only, last time I check I couldn't adjust the degree of rotation on the T500 for ps3, that's why I was curious if the Ferrari add on auto changed that? I'm hoping someone on here knows from experience!

As far as I'am aware there is no lock settings for the T500RS in GT5, I might be wrong but that is what I think. I'm not speaking from experience because I own a G27.

Last time I used it there wasn't I'd like to get the Ferrari add on wheel, but not if I have to turn that little thing 1080 degrees! That's crazy!

Why can't you drive with 1080 degrees? Your not going to use all of it anyways, but I know for a fact that when you do turn it down to 180 degrees your feedback becomes better and stronger because that's what happened when I had my Logitech Driving Force Pro; damn good wheel had the lock settings built in (180 degrees and 900 degrees) but the countersteering was super slow.

No it's fine with the regular wheel, have you seen the Ferrari F1 wheel?

I haven't seen it in real life but I've seen reviews about it and they seem to have a great time on this add on wheel because it is such a extremely amazing F1 wheel.

Holy Lord... that thing is !!! I hope it also makes espresso and changes diapers.

It changes them alright, from clean to 'messy'.

It's expensive but worth it! If I had the money I would sell my G27 and get the Thrustmaster T500RS, new Pedals and the shifter but I'm broke as 🤬

That's it, I quit

As a proud new owner of the T500RS and F1 wheel setup, I can relate to the original posters issue. I drive a lot of open wheel and especially the Red Bull X2011. I can assure that having the angle adjustment would be very beneficial. The F1 wheel in particular really needs a much smaller lock-to-lock angle. I'm hoping GT5 adds this functionality soon.

Also, there is a manual over ride on the angle that you can set via buttons on the wheel. Evidently it doesn't work for all cars though. I tried it on the Red Bull x2011 and it had no effect.

Are you listening GT5?

Finally! Thank you for your information! I guess I can hold off on buying the add-on for awhile then, it's entirely too much rotation to try and handle with the shape of that wheel.

Instructions on how to manually change the wheel's angle of rotation on PlayStation®3 in Force Feedback games.
-Requires firmware V40 or higherThe T500 RS racing wheel and the relevant SDK (Software Development Kit) are issued
to major PlayStation®3 game development studios to ensure full compatibility with
forthcoming releases.
The T500 RS SDK enables PlayStation®3 game development teams to configure and
manage Force Feedback effects.
The SDK includes the ability to adjust the wheel's angle of rotation from 40 to 1080°.
Individual development teams are therefore able to adjust and define wheel rotation
angles according to their own preferences.
The wheel automatically adjusts to choices made by development teams.
However, it is also possible to manually change the angle of rotation selected by default.
To do so, simultaneously press (and release):
- “D-Pad Right” + “MODE button” to increase the angle of rotation by one step
- “D-Pad Left” + “MODE button” to decrease the angle of rotation by one step
5 possible settings
ANGLE OF
ROTATION
selected
LED status
270° Flashes 1 time
360° Flashes 2 times
540° Flashes 3 times
900° Flashes 4 times
1080° Flashes 5 times
270° Flashes 1 time
Etc… Etc…
Notes:
- Changing the angle of rotation manually does not permanently save the change = you
must repeat the procedure each time the game restarts.
- This tip will not function properly in some games (such as GRAN TURISMO® 5)
which adjust or modify the angle of rotation at startup or at the restart of each race,
according to the type of car being used.3
