Need help with how to setup (assign buttons) & calibrate my new G29 racing wheel

[ekracing]

Ok it's FINALLY hooked up! I haven't had to assign buttons in a LONG time (with my old momo wheel) so how do I do that with my new G29? And how do I calibrate the wheel & pedals before every race, Logitech profiler? Really appreciate any\all help! Thanks!

I think you just need to assign buttons and calibrate it inside nr2003 first and I believe the logitech software will pick up the nr2003 profile, calibrate it in nr2003 first and then find the profile in the logitech software. Try that.

Let me add that newer Sims will pickup the wheel software , nr2003 won't do the same thing so you will have to just calibrate it in nr2003 and the assignments in the logitech software won't mean anything. I believe I am correct on that.

Found out from Logitech that Logitech Profiler will not work with G29 & windows 11, I have to use G HUB to assign buttons & calibrate.

I have win 11, logitech g923 with shifter. Yes by the image you posted, that is g hub, you downloaded g hub for your wheel to the computer correct? Logitech profiler was for older wheels.
You just need to calibrate the wheel in nr2003, you don't have to assign anything in g hub.

But I want to assign buttons to do what the F buttons do.

Download Joytokey for windows 11.. Works great to assign ANY buttons to your new wheel.

Ah, you want to assign the f1, f2, f3 etc. keys to your wheel in ghub, I will try it and get back to doesn't seem to be a tutorial on it as I looked quickly. If you want to try what Rob said, go ahead but I will post a way in ghub when I get it to work.

I have assigned the f1 key to a button, getting it to work is another story I have it in the screenshot. All I had to do was drag the f1 in the list to the button and watch for the button to change and then drop it.
Ok I am adding on to this post now:
The F keys should work as long as you don't have an fn key on your keyboard which is a f key lock, I assiged an A key for example and wrote in note pad with my wheel button, the f keys should work as long as the lock is not there, let me know what you have, I am going to try a work around for the fn key.

Is there such a thing for windows 11? I thought Joy2key was for like windows 7.

I'm on windows 10 and using it. I posted a link to it in one of your other posts. https://www.usitility.com/joytokey/download-windows-11
Very easy to set up. If you need help just let me know!

I do need help setting up Joy2Key (it's been a very long time since I've had to do it). having trouble getting the paddle shifters assigned & the gas & brake peddles working right. Even in G-HUB there's no gear up\gear down assignment thingies. Appreciate your help!

I can't stress enough that you do not have to assign anything in ghub to use that wheel, the gear up gear down that you see in ghub are the defaults. You assign them in your nr2003 or sim or game. New Sims or games will mostly likely already have a profile for the wheel.
Same thing for the pedals they do not need to be assigned in ghub.

I've got the thing working ALMOST, when I'm driving it toggles through the views (cockpit, bumper cam, ect) on it's own. And is there a way to adjust the steering sensitivity, it's a little stiff. Thanks!

Being a little stiff would be the force feedback strength in nr2003, try moving it down to 7%(higher than that can become not just a little stiff but very stiff), try that first, that should take care of that, going through the camera views while driving is going to be another problem, did you try assigning any keys to the wheel in ghub?

Your pg up key and your pg dn control the camera views while driving, make sure you have nothing touching those keys.

I should also add that if you downloaded and tried using joy2key and stopped, then that could be changing the views maybe, so if that is the case you should uninstall that, I have never had joy2key but if your going to try to bind that to the wheel and then not use it a program like that can be the problem.
