Instructions
Step 1
The latest innovations in this industry make it possible to notify the driver about it when the wheels of a car get into mud or when they are worn out. How can the steering wheel do this? Whatever to eat straight - creates vibration in the entire steering column. But for the correct operation of this device, it is necessary, first of all, to install and configure it. each game has its own requirements for such devices.
Step 2
First of all, you need to find out how the steering wheel is connected to the computer. The latest models support USB connection, especially since recently a new technology - USB 3.0 - has been released, which can significantly increase the speed of access to additional devices. If you do not have the newest version of the steering wheel and it does not support USB connection, and you did not find the required connector, purchase a special adapter.
Step 3
After determining the type of connection, you need to make sure that there are free USB ports. As you know, now a large number of devices are produced with USB interface. If you find that there are no free connectors or there is only one, try attaching a special hub to the computer.

Please note that many models, when properly connected, include an indication, for example, on the steering wheels of some manufacturers there is a scale for pressing the gas pedal.
Step 6
After starting the game, go to the controller (control) settings and specify the gamepad as an alternative to the keyboard. Here you can customize the function of many buttons. Remember that there is no "clutch" pedal for such a device, so it must be configured by specifying any of the unused buttons as this pedal.
