Frequently Asked Questions - compatibility




The first release of the driver is compatible to Windows XP SP2 and Vista 32bit.

 Vista 64 bit drivers will be released in Q1 next year.


The wheel is tested and works well with older games like Nascar 2003 or GP legends.

There will be the option in the driver to use "combined" pedals. 

 


In general, all games are compatible which are supporting other Force Feedback wheels as well.

This includes:

  • Gran Turismo 5 Prolog
  • Need for Speed: Pro Street
  • Colin Mc Rae DiRT
  • Need for Speed carbon
  • Nascar 2008
  • Formula 1 (No FF support)

We did not test it with all the seats on the market but we tested it with a few and have concerns regarding the stability as the wheel delivers very strong FF effects. Of course you can turn down the strength of the effects but the better solution will be a strong cockpit which is designed especially for the wheel. We are working on it.


The Fanatec Speedster 3 wheel was officially licensed by Sony Computer Entertainment Europe and we have an excellent relationship to Sony. We are currently talking with the major publishers about the support of the wheel and the response is very positive. But even if the wheel is not listed in the options menu, it will still work.


Since the development of the Speedster 3 ForceShock for Xbox we have a good relationship to Microsoft and the developers of Forza Motorsport and PGR.
Microsoft wants a high-end wheel for the console but the technical implementation is not easy. We are trying hard to come up with a Xbox360 wheel by the middle of next year but it seems that this wheel will "only" be compatible with the Xbox360. Of course it will have all the features of the current version.


The Playstation 2 console is not supported officially.
The Wii will definitly not work.


Playstation 3:
Need for Speed: Carbon
Gran Turismo 5 (estimated)

PC:
GT legends
GTR
GTR2
WTCC
Live for Speed
rFactor
...and more


The demo version of GT Prologue is fully compatible, including the 6 speed gear stick.
