DiRT Rally 2.0 DiRT Rally 2.0: Supported Peripherals Confirmed

[Paul Jeffrey]

Codemasters have confirmed the full list of supported peripherals for the upcoming DiRT Rally 2.0.

The good news for gamers is many of the most common brands look set to be supported from the off, including much of the Fanatec, Logitech and Thrustmaster wheel range - however it is also nice to see direct drive wheel support in the form of the SimSteering and Accuforce wheels - an increasing trend in sim racing as the popularity of direct drive wheels continues to increase amongst the sim racing player base.

No OSW and no HE's pedal ? wtf?? i will not be able to play the game or they will work but not listed as official?

All devices above comply to standard DX input, so bit of fiddling around and it should work.
Almost none of the above is supported by old titles but still every one of them can be configured to run propely.
Just need to assign inputs manually.

I have only found one modern game (Seb Loeb EVO) that doesn't support my DIY button panel with handbrake that I made myself (based on an Atmega8, not even with Arduino, but a modified USB firmware to support plenty of buttons and additional components I had to soldered myself... yes, I'm the man... :-D) and because it doesn't support more than one peripheral.

 

[alice3d]

no DFGT?

I have one too. I guess it will be supported as a generic wheel or something like that.

 

[ThugUK]

• With Triple Monitors setup, I have the same useful situational awareness as a VR user (i.e. yea you can look at the sky and behind the seat to your heart's content, but in a race is that really useful?

...Said no person ever who has actually used VR.

Its all about immersion, especially in a sim, and its very useful for 'putting you in the seat/car'.
I look around and I see my headrest, my drivers arms and legs, or the roof of the car. I move up and down to have a better view of the dials, or move my body a little to get a better look in the mirrors. I am 'inside' the car.
You look up and see your room light, you look left and see your coffee mug or your cat licking its bits. You are still very much inside your computer room.

 

[Bryan O'Connor]

Supported ROFLOLMAO... Can't even get my wheel to work with the first one, and Codies just ignore the issue (i'm not the only one with that issue) so what's the point?

 

[Glen Orpheus]

No VR no BUY

Maybe! You need this in your life.

 

[Alex72]

NoTriplesNoBuyGaddamit!!!

Nah, i'll buy it and be pissed off my side monitors are stretched. Its DR1 all over again.

 

[odiopower]

No VR no buy? Have any of you guys seen the steam analytics? Less of the 1% of the player base have it, assuming one out of ten (less?) is in to sim racing, we are below the .1% and maybe some of them arn’t in to rally games. Now you have the precise why VR isn’t in the plan.

I own a Rift and i love it, but pretending all the sim having VR support is almost utopic.
VR sim racer are a niche of a niche, sad but true.

You only hear the ones complaining, so it seems like they're more than they are. This applies to all issues in life.
I'd like to get VR and been thinking about it for a long time, but I just don't have the space right now so I am in no way negative to it. I hope they eventually do implement VR, but people need to buy more Rifts if they want more VR games.

• If the house is burning down, my family is being attacked, etc...I'll likely be a little more aware than a VR user with headphones on (I use speakers).
• With Triple Monitors setup,
• No issue with vision getting fogged up over long races
• Much lower chance of getting nausea

Tough neighbourhood you live in there John! I'd suggest selling the triples and moving somewhere safer first. Also connected/monitored fire/CO2 and security systems are cheap these days - compared to sim racing gear at least!

I do understand your point though, when the kids were younger I didn't use VR or the noise cancelling headphones if they were around, too easy to miss them getting in to some mischief or calling out for help.

I like VR we have a couple of sets here but I'm not with the VR being a must have crowd. Frankly DiRT Rally was about as intense an experience as I'd want in VR and wasn't a game I played for long in VR as a result.

And triples are even more niche than VR, but people still complain that a game doesn't support them. Just read the ACC forums.

Or look at it another way, Steam as over 125 million members (https://www.vg247.com/2015/02/24/steam-has-over-125-million-active-users-8-9m-concurrent-peak/).
So this 0.1% is about 125,000 VR users. If say 80% (total guess) of them are in the 'no VR no buy' camp then that is about 100,000 users and possible lost sales.
At about £40 per game, then that's about £4,000,000 lost by not supporting it.
Do you still think its a bad idea supporting it?

What space do you mean?
You need a seat (or playseat) which I presume you have now with a wheel etc, your VR headset (which can be put away when not using it) and a sensor (which can sit on top of your monitor).
You need no more space than you do for normal PC gaming.

Does your right leg wiggle about if you wiggle yours?
Mine does! Bloody good job I left foot brake.

Sooo sim racers weren't immersed before VR? I remember being quite immersed playing Gran Turismo 1 on PS1 using a controller..."immersion" is relative; VR doesn't have a monopoly on immersion.

As I said, do whatever makes you happy ...You're not the first VR user to try to convert me and I'm sure you won't be the last. I'm happy...you're happy...toMAYto....toMAHto...let's call the whole thing off

(BTW, when I look left I see the car door, side mirrors and the car creeping up alongside me. I don't see a light when I look up, it's behind me...besides, I don't look up in a race; what's the point? Finally, I'm more of a tea drinker and I hate cats )

The attacked bit was worse case scenario, but you get the idea LOL

BTW, does anyone know if Dirt 2 will support VR? And is VR any good? People rarely ever mention VR in the comments nowadays.

VR sim racer are a niche of a niche, sad but true.

Dirt rally 2 is aimed squarely at the sim racing crowd. And we are very early adopters of vr. I'm willing to bet the %of pc based sim racers on vr is closer to 25%. Sure would be interesting to see a poll here at RD on that topic

 

[Burke Wells]

I find accuracy in both statements; If I look at left screen, I see that car creeping up alongside me and it's awesome. Same with right screen. But if I do happen to glance down at the floor, I do sometimes see kitty grooming his bits. But that's ok as I just imagine he's in the floorboard of the car with me.

"Hold on to yer butt, kitty. We're going over a big jump..."

That's assuming every, single VR user would like a racing game. That's pretty far from the case. There are quite a lot who doesn't touch a sim-game, or even own a wheel. According the the released numbers, around 120k Steam users have "everything else" as a controller. "Everything else" includes N64 controller(yes, really), dancepads, DIY's etc. and wheels.
In addition, there are people who bought a wheel to do ETS2/ATS, but doesn't car for racing.
The amount of steering-wheel, VR, sim-game users are a fairly low amount. Then add in the ones who are in that camp, but isn't in the no VR no buy gang. Then the number will be far lower than 100k users.

I just want to say that I have a T300 with the F1 wheel in advanced mode...
-> in Dirt Rally works without any problems
-> in Dirt 4 I had to edit some files with device IDs because the game never saved the configuration and I had to redo it on every startup

In neither game does the in-game wheel reflect the movement of the real wheel (like in every sim incl. F1 2018 from Codemasters), although 900 degree animation was a selling point of Dirt 4 (I have hands disabled and soft lock turned off...) The in-game wheel has more inertia, on sudden movements it overshoots than returns back to the position I have my real wheel in. It's incredibly frustrating for me as I would like to have the same "view" in every sim -> cockpit with wheel with 1:1 animations (and preferably no hands), so dash cam is not a perfect solution.

This "problem" made me enjoy the previous Dirt games much less as I would like. Hopefully 2.0 has proper animations this time. I am not sure if I will buy it, I bought 4 because people said it has those proper 1:1 animations I would like to have - but it does not, or I am too stupid to set it up.

wow please tell me what to edit to make it safe my wheel settings.
I have to change my settings every time I launch the game. I already posted on the codemaster forum with the bug and they did not support any help.
For me this affects Dirt Rally!

I used some steps from here in section 2, basically changed the basic T300 device ID in the config files to that of my device.

I'm pretty sure game developers have better knowledge and data how people play their games and when it's a bad idea and when it's not. Bottom line is if VR would be worth the time and money they would implement it. But at the moment it's not and that's why they don't support it. Simple as that.
