Simxperience are making a wheel

First few minutes of this month's ISR confirms it

I know this is not strictly PC related but has anyone seen the new MadCatz wheel? Looks pretty decent compared to their normal rubbish:

yeh saw it posted in the forza 5 thread, also thrustmaster have a new wheel. I don't rate madcatz stuff, however it does look decent.

...and still no clutch

Probably not a big deal to the mainstream audience that will consider buying this wheel.

majnu

It has split shifters by the look of it so perhaps hand operated clutch?

Something interesting for Thrustmaster TH500RS owners which John Bodin managed to find.

Hopefully there will be an official load cell in the future.

CSW: Map sequential shifter to shifter paddles

Not sure what this means unless it means a seq shifter that's input into the CSW shifter inputs can be mapped to the paddles as well (which would be great)

CSW: Analog joystick of CSW works as mouse

Great feature & nice customisation options in the Fanatec settings!!

I read it exactly as that, i.e. if you map shift Up/Down to Sequential, will also work on Paddles, preventing the tedious remapping for different cars.  I don't have a sequential shifter to try with but saw a tick box in Fanatec Setting to apply the option.
