I currently have a CSW 2.5 base with BMW GT wheel and Formula V2 wheel. I use iRacing mostly. What are the advantages and/or disadvantages to installing Fanalab.
So ive made a profile for f1 2020, saved it, enabled telemetry and disabled the normal fanatec led option in game, but I get nothing on my LEDs in game.
Is this issue going to be fixed or it can't? I see lots of dashboard software out there for iRacing which can show the flag status, so it is surely possibile.
Is there any chance of making it so that we can create profiles for games that you don't recognize.
I use my wheel for truck simulators and Wreckfest and it would be nice to be able to load my settings for the wheel from Fanalab, rather than remember which of the 5 presets is for which.
Morning Maurice, have you had a chance to do a profile for the new Dallara P217 in iRacing yet sir? Would be appreciated if you have and could link it as I cant find it anywhere.
Fanalab wont start on my system. Everytime I try to start it, the fanatec splash screen comes up, and the icon appears in my bottom right tray for a moment, then disappears, and the program doesnt open
Don't know if this is the right place for this suggestion. Is there any chance that the next version can have a way to import a profile into a slot other than 1? Maybe a drop down next to the import button? be nice to try some of these settings that @maurice has clearly spent a great deal of time on and switch them on the fly without having to edit each one to change the slot number first.
i have massive trouble getting Fanalabs running. I am using a DD1 with the McLaren GT3 Wheel and the Clubsport Pedals V3.
I updated to the latest Beta driver hoping for a better FFB in iRacing. Since there are only two way i know to get a decent FFB in iRacing (irFFB and Fanalabs).I wanted to try out Fanalabs, instead of irFFB.
What i did:
Deinstalled old driver and Fanalabs
Restart
Installed Driver & Fanalabs
Restart
And several other options: without restart, deinstalled other software what might cause an issue, ...
The Outcome is ALWAYS the same: I start Fanalabs, the Logo shows, the mini icon appears and the moment i hover over it, the Application Crashes and the logo disappears.
I just did some testing on rFactor 2 with AI and overall things work great.
I did however notice that on the ITM screen where you can see the gap to the car ahead and behind, it seem that the gap to the car ahead is actually the gap to the leader and the gap written as car ahead is actually the gap to the car directly behind.
I’m having the issue that my FEI setting always resets to 0 when switching profiles. All other settings keep in place but the FEI setting seems to reset.

Any info about this issue?
LEDs staying (partially) on is a 9 month old Firmware issue. No ETA for a fix, maybe it's even impossible to fix.

Best to watch some Youtube turotial videos what FanaLab offers (LED control, FlagLED telemetry, Vibration control, Dynamic Speed Sensitive Damper, Reverse Damper etc etc etc).
So ive made a profile for f1 2020, saved it, enabled telemetry and disabled the normal fanatec led option in game, but I get nothing on my LEDs in game.
You need to disable the Broadcast option and set UDP Format to 2020 and UDP Send Rate to 60Hz.
With the formula V2 wheel, in iRacing, is there a way to have LEDs come on when pit limiter is active (switched on)?
Not just when the revs hit the limit.
no, iRacing only sends a telemetry signal when the car hits the limiter speed, not when you engage the pit limiter button.
iRacing is really one of the worst games when it comes to telemetry, they just block soooooo much, its incredible.
Thanks!
Thanks for fixing the Brake adjustment on the wheel when pedals are connected to the base. That's honestly the most useful feature for me.

hello,
i have a big issue with fanalab, log file reports errors (see enclosed)
it is related to forece feedback daper failed (?)
have you an idea how to solve this issue ?
thx !
What's the issue, is it crashing or what?
Error messages in the logs are normal, as long as Fanalab is running and not crashing its working properly.
podium DD1 + pedals v3 not recognized in ACC BUT all works fine in fanatec Wheel property page + fanalab ,
I reinstall all drivers, reinstall game, but cannot find the issue...
I left an issue to fanatec support but no return for the moment...
Well, then that's not a Fanalab issue at all, in fact it's even no Fanatec issue in the first place.
You need to map everything in ACC, try deleting your controls.json file and start from scratch.
If still not working then you should open a thread in the ACC Kunos forums as this is clearly a game thing and not a device thing.
Is it worth installing this for a CSW 2.5 base? Anyone with this HW had a significant improvement on anything?
Thanks
You need to delete a folder, I don't remember the correct location, ask @maurice to point you in the right direction.
It's fixed for pretty much everyone by deleting the Fanalab folder in C:\users\[username]\AppData\Local\PodiumControl and then restarting Fanalab.
Hey Mark,
Try these settings - not far off, only the flash is set to go off a smidge early compared to onscreen.
It is impossible to get the LEDs matching for the P217 because iRacing decided to use a different % RPM range for every gear.
So when you set your Fanalab % to match first gear with 100% accuracy, then it's off in every other gear a lot.
However, this is the % range for the first gear, matching 100%, profile included in my latest iRacing upload.

No, that's not possible.
You are forced to load profiles with the profile the creator made them.
You can however open the downloaded pws file and edit the setup ID with a Editor to anything else, then it will load with the ID you have set it to.

Any Ideas ?😥
Yeah, it's mentioned in the first post of this thread how to fix that issue by deleting a special folder.
Thanks Mate!
Please, have a beer... 😉

Anyone else having this issue?
