Title: Support for WRC 5 PS4 Game as Preset Game!
Post by: Zefmirrorman on January 09, 2017, 08:58:54 PM
Hi!

Regarding WRC 5 for PS4, is there any Preset Game configuration that I may use to get a decent wheel control on the game (with my G27 wheel)?

Or if there´s no existing game profile that I may use, is it possible in future versions of the Manager, that this game may be included?

you should find no problem to use DriveClub's config for WRC5,
but remember to upgrade WRC5 to the latest version before that.

Any question or feedback please post it here.

I tryed to use such configuration... I even tryed remapping the G27 defining a new button to duplicate the "Options" button from the DS4 controler, but the game will not pass the opening screen where is demmanded to press the "Options" button... it simply will not assume you are pressing that button... and as I said I tryed different buttons from my G27 using key remmaping...

Just to try to understand this issue, may you tell me which PS4 games from this list use the "Options" button for gameplay:
- Project Cars
- Dirt Rally
- Need For Speed
- The Crew
- Drive Club
- Assetto Corsa

(these are the games I own)

So I may check if this button/command is assumed when I use my G27 in any of them...

hi,
please kindly follow the instructions strictly and orderly:
1. make sure you are using the latest Cross Hair Manager V1.43.24 or later versions.
2. delete all the configs in your Cross Hair
3. add only DriveClud's config in it and save. do not change anything!
4. connect DS4 to USB PORT1 and your G27 to USB PORT2 or 3 of Cross Hair,
5. after that connect Cross Hair to PS4
6. power on your PS4 by the power button on the console, not the PS button on DS4.
(A breathing color means Cross Hair is working well)
PS4: i also posted a pic in this topic to show you the "options" key.

please try and let us know the result.

~Believe me or not, I did all that yesterday night... and the colour from the logo was like you said.. green and breathing... but neither the assigned button on the G27, nor the original "options" buton on the PS4 get any answer when pressed... (the game remains waiting... forever...)

But I´l ltry all that again this night, also with the Drive Club Game... (which I own and haven´t yet tryed it with Cross hair and G27)!!

Well.. it seems tha WRC 5 is not compatible with Cross Hair... pure and simple...

Tryed Drive Club without any problem... but same configuration will not start WRC5 as the "Options" button can´t be activated... :( , strangely as it may seem.

did you install this wrc5 from a CD?
have you upgade the game to the latest version through internet?
Title: Re: Support for WRC 5 PS4 Game as Preset Game!
Post by: Zefmirrorman on January 11, 2017, 05:14:08 PM
Yes, and yes! (Last version from he update was 1.02)

Yes, and yes! (Last version from he update was 1.02)

Let me add this information.. this is the Esports Edition from WRC5 !
Title: Re: Support for WRC 5 PS4 Game as Preset Game!
Post by: richard on January 11, 2017, 09:41:03 PM
i will check the esport edition and get back to you later.
Title: Re: Support for WRC 5 PS4 Game as Preset Game!
Post by: richard on January 11, 2017, 09:44:48 PM
can you find out whether this edition can support g29 or not?
Title: Re: Support for WRC 5 PS4 Game as Preset Game!
Post by: Zefmirrorman on January 11, 2017, 11:10:06 PM
On this Game box, and booklet there´s no information about wheel controlers supported... I´ve searched on Google for any information on this version and subject, and found nothing...

 Strange is, that for the original WRC 5 version, G29 and a lot of wheels are supported!!
Title: Re: Support for WRC 5 PS4 Game as Preset Game!
Post by: Zefmirrorman on January 12, 2017, 08:13:28 AM
i´ve searched along the preset games and I believe tat using Need For Speed 19 configuration, will let me start the game (Legacy Mode with a key already defined for emulating Options button)... as all remaining keys may be configured...

I´ll try it next time and tell you about it!
Title: Re: Support for WRC 5 PS4 Game as Preset Game!
Post by: richard on January 12, 2017, 01:51:20 PM
we had report from other user that wrc5 can recognise g29, but no info about your esport edition.
please make sure the esport edit wrc5 can support this wheel.
Title: Re: Support for WRC 5 PS4 Game as Preset Game!
Post by: richard on January 12, 2017, 02:51:00 PM

G29 is listed on this page for wrc5,
but we are not sure the difference the between your esprot edit and the original one.
just remember we have turned your g27 into a g29.
Title: Re: Support for WRC 5 PS4 Game as Preset Game!
Post by: Zefmirrorman on January 12, 2017, 05:26:49 PM
Honestly I found nothing about the Esports edition having any wheel controler compatibility.. pure and simple... regarding the in games menus nothing apears and if when using the Drive Club onfiguration for CrossHair it does not accept the "options" key input, I´m led to conclude that it simply does not recognize the controller, or i this case the emulated G29 wheel...
Title: Re: Support for WRC 5 PS4 Game as Preset Game!
Post by: richard on January 12, 2017, 11:17:59 PM
our converter will work just as the same way as g29,
so other games like driveclub can recognise it.
but if i have further news, will post it here.

Hi Richard!

Just to say that the Need for Speed 19 conifiguration worked like a charm!!!  So I guess this game can only be played using Legacy Mode emulation...

Hi Zefmirrorman, thanks for your sharing, it will help us a lots!
Title: Re: Support for WRC 5 PS4 Game as Preset Game!
Post by: Zefmirrorman on January 17, 2017, 01:08:20 AM
No need to thank!! I´m glad to share my experience with other users! That´s the best reason for having this Forum, aint it?

Next I´ll be trying WRC 6 PS4, and this one (I bet!!) must  be compatible with advanced mode on some of the profiles already Preset!
Title: Re: Support for WRC 5 PS4 Game as Preset Game!
Post by: Zefmirrorman on January 17, 2017, 05:15:07 PM
(instead of Advanced Mode please read Expert Mode)..

Bad news.. about WRC6 Expert Mode Compatibility!!!

It seems there is no compatibility with any other Preset Game profile on Expert Mode!!!! Only works on Legacy Mode!!! Is´nt that really strange??? It looks like the guys that produced this game series don´t allow compatibility to Crosshair Expert Mode!! I´m very sure that WRC6 is originally compatible with a bundle of Steering Wheel Controlers, it even apears in the Options commands, a dedicated item to wheel controlers, but it will not recognize any when Crosshair is used!!! :(  Shit!!!
Title: Re: Support for WRC 5 PS4 Game as Preset Game!
Post by: richard on January 17, 2017, 09:05:28 PM
do you find the game's support list for wheels?
we will need to check and confirm.
Title: Re: Support for WRC 5 PS4 Game as Preset Game!
Post by: Zefmirrorman on January 17, 2017, 10:55:30 PM
Yep!!!!

check here: http://www.wrcthegame.com/wrc-support/ (http://www.wrcthegame.com/wrc-support/)

And on the Options menu there is an item for detected Steering Wheel Command, which does not work since it won´t detect the system "Crosshair plus G27" I have!
Title: Re: Support for WRC 5 PS4 Game as Preset Game!
Post by: richard on January 18, 2017, 12:31:58 AM
thanks for the report, we will get back to you later with further news.
Title: Re: Support for WRC 5 PS4 Game as Preset Game!
Post by: richard on January 18, 2017, 09:39:42 AM
1. make sure you have updated your wrc6
2. is it on ps4?
3. choose g29 in the settings of wrc6
it should be ok to work in expert mode.
Title: Re: Support for WRC 5 PS4 Game as Preset Game!
Post by: Zefmirrorman on January 18, 2017, 06:38:58 PM
1. There´s no update avalable... there is no aditional patch...
2. of course and this is the digital version, bought on Plastation Store
3. that would only be possible if the PS4 would detect it... as I told and repeat once more... PS4 does'nt detect any Steering Wheel Controler plugged in... so...
and no it does'nt work on Expert Mode... same thing happens for WRC5 Esports Edition... as both were produced by same gaming software house.. probably the problem has to do with the controller detection subroutine included in their games...
My PS4 has the firmware updated, so I believe trully that the issue affecting WRC5 and WRC6 must be the one I´m "guessing" on last paragraph...
Title: Re: Support for WRC 5 PS4 Game as Preset Game!
Post by: richard on January 18, 2017, 07:42:04 PM
ok, we will look into this and answer your questions later.
Title: Re: Support for WRC 5 PS4 Game as Preset Game!
Post by: richard on January 24, 2017, 09:55:28 AM
hi, we have tested wrc6 in expert mode again, no problem.
WRC5'S CONFIG + G27 works well.

but you need to use your DS4 directly and choose steering wheel as controller in game,
which is showed in the video below:
https://youtu.be/YFx-LgTsKco

Title: Re: Support for WRC 5 PS4 Game as Preset Game!
Post by: Zefmirrorman on January 24, 2017, 05:33:10 PM
Explain me how to do this: "you need to use your DS4 directly" please...

As I have to connect it (DS4) to Cross Hair ... in your video that is not shown...if I connect DS4 to Crosshair and start the game, I can only proceed after pressing the "Options" key... but with DS4 connected to Cross Hair the game will not accept such input form the DS4 controller... it acts like no key was pressed.. as simple as that... to make PS4 accept the input from the DS4 I have to disconect it from CrossHair and make press the PS key from controller logging in as main controller to PS4. but then CrossHair will not work and the G27 to G29 emulation will not work....

If you may... tel me how can I do what you are saying that has to be done.. as I see no way of doing it...
Title: Re: Support for WRC 5 PS4 Game as Preset Game!
Post by: richard on January 24, 2017, 06:33:24 PM
1. connect your DS4 to PS4 console wirelessly without Cross Hair,
    start the wrc6 game on console and
    choose steering wheel as controller in game,as showed in the video:
    https://youtu.be/YFx-LgTsKco

2. then turn off your DS4 and connect it to Cross Hair USB port 1,
    connect your G27 to Cross Hair USB port 2 or 3
    after all these are done, connect Cross Hair to PS4
 
it should work. we have done it without any trouble.

Richard,

The described "trick" did´nt work!

When I start WRC (5 or 6)  using WS4 (as in 1) the Change Command Option is disabled...

I´ve tryed several different options (with small changes on procedures) and al I can say is that one of them worked.., but.. as I did´nt keep track of each different step that I´ve takne, I must try again (by trial and error sequence) keeping track od steps taken, so I may identify the correct sequence and procedure... I hope that I may find some time to do so later on through the week...


1. connect your DS4 to PS4 console wirelessly without Cross Hair,
    start the wrc6 game on console and
    choose steering wheel as controller in game,as showed in the video:
    https://youtu.be/YFx-LgTsKco

2. then turn off your DS4 and connect it to Cross Hair USB port 1,
    connect your G27 to Cross Hair USB port 2 or 3
    after all these are done, connect Cross Hair to PS4
 
it should work. we have done it without any trouble.

sorry, we can not catch your meaning, "Change Command Option is disabled".

Title: Re: Support for WRC 5 PS4 Game as Preset Game!
Post by: Zefmirrorman on January 27, 2017, 03:08:12 AM
It should be written "Change Controller" option instead.. that command is disabled when I follow your instructions...

I got there alright, but I had to try a different way to get there (Change Controller" option available..)! And as I was not keeping track of the sequence and options taken, I´ll have to go through the whole process again, trial and error, until I discover the sequence again... and taking notes of each step this time, then I´ll be able to recreate the sequence and result, every time I´ll do it...

Once I discover the correct sequence of steps, I´ll tell you what the right sequence is... :)

Hi Richard!

Maybe there´s a way to do this with only one DS4 Controller... but I realized I used my full pair of DS4 controllers to achieve this!!! One  connected to Cross Hair nd he other used as normal...

So I connected DS$ to Cross Hair and Cross hair to PS4 (with the G27 wheel also connected of course), turned PS4 on and sarted WRC5 through the other DS4 (wireless mode), only this way the options to choose either Controller or Steering Wheel are both activated... in fact that is what happens for someone that has the real G29 wheel... as he must have also the DS4 controller... probably...

If I proceed as you wrote, PS4 wil not recognize any Wheel controler connected to it,  and so it will not let you choose the Wheel controler option...
Title: Re: Support for WRC 5 PS4 Game as Preset Game!
Post by: richard on February 07, 2017, 11:11:42 AM
thanks for reply, it's a bit complicated if 2 controllers are in need, but it might help others.
we have tested on WRC6 not WRC5, will this be the reason that you can not get the same result?
