I use the Thrustmaster Force Feedback Racing Wheel which works with GT3 (see press release www.thrustmaster.com). I can't set the steering aids to a more difficult level(or to simulation). So when I play with the wheel the steering aid helps me, but I don't want the aid to help me. My second problem is that I can't configure the keys of the wheel in the options menu. It simply doesn't work. Anyone the same Problems?
 
I have tried and bought 3 different wheels now...and none of them have worked right...I can't remember if that was one of them...did that one come with foot pedals and in a blue box?
 
Update:
I can't even calibrate my Wheel
the optionsmenu does work
but when I start racing the car
steers a little bit to the left when
I hold my wheel exactly in the middle position
It seems like the options doesn't affect the wheel except that I can turn on/off the ff
everything else is ignored during the game.
 
RE thrustmaster: I have not been able to configure the buttons as they can only be configure for pc games, the wheel comes with a cd rom for the pc. If you do not want to use the foot pedals, start the game without the pedal unit plugged in and the second set of lower wheel paddles becomes accel, and brakes, cool huh? very hard to use, need to learn new hand skills.

But the gear changing paddles are awesome.

The buttons on the wheel can be used while driving, the left is a hand brake and the right seems to be selecting reverse which has the affect of about 60% of full brake use, good for washing off some speed through a bend.

I was initally disappointed with not being able to configure the buttons but now realise that it is not required.
