I had the same problem. I wrote to Mat and he replied with this tip that helped me:


***************************************************************************
"What matters is the Windows axis range.

Joystick correction is only useful if the axis value can take both negative and positive values:
1. rest = 32767, full = -32767 (Logitech case): low_value = 32767, low_coef = -8192, high_value = 0, high_coef = 0
2. rest = -32767, full = 32767: low_value = -32767, low_coef = 0, high_value = -32767, high_coef = 8192

If your pedals are just reversed with no half-way dead zone, you should try 2. first.

The following cases do not need any joystick correction:
3. rest = 0 full = 32767
4. rest = 0 full = -32767: set the sensitivity to -0.008 instead of 0.008"


**********************************************************************************

For the record, Option #1 is what works perfectly for me. Try it :)

Thanks for the tip, I'll take a look when I'm home.

Am I supposed to have the Logitech DFGT drivers on my GIMX machine? I thought not, as GIMX will not detect the wheel when they are installed, but without you get no options for pedals (de/combining etc). I'm guessing this is what the correction fixes.

Which option are you using? For PS3 I was using option 2. but on PC I'm using option 1 and will also try #1 on my PS3 when I get back home. One out those two should work.

Yes, you have to install the Logitech Gaming Software. Isn't there a message about this displayed in the black window?

GIMX will not detect the wheel if LGS is installed, I'm away from the setup right now but will grab some logs when I get back.

Install LGS and fix the device names in the configuration.

I just got the game last night, eventually, I found out DFGT was not supported.

I already had built the DIY usb for the PS4. So that means I can actually use this little device to emulate the G29 on the same computer...hehe , amazing. I will try it tonight. Maybe I will post back on this thread if I get stuck or something.

You'll have to use the EMUG27PC firmware for this. The G29 emulation does not work on PC.
