Wishlist for FM7 UPDATE
![Thomas Jackermeier](https://forum.fanatec.com/uploads/userpics/010/nX7MZEGFGQ6T8.png)
I have a meeting with the team of Turn 10 this week and we will discuss several things we could do together for their next title of Forza Motorsport.
If you would like to add something, please let me know. Please tell me any wheel/pedal/shifter related issues you have in FM6 and let us know what new features you would like to see supported in FM7.
Please do not list any other things as we will only discuss issues or features related to our products.
This is your chance to change something!
UPDATE
I had a very good meeting with them and I am happy to report that there is a good chance that a lot of things will change for the better in upcoming FM titles.
The PC market seems very important for them and they are aware that this market is dominated by wheel users. Therefore we will intensify our co-operation and get the best out of the games for wheel users.
I cannot confirm at this point what features can be implemented but the interest to do so is very high.
:-bd
Please continue to give me feedback and I will make sure that you will be heard.

also, ask them to make the wheel vibrating when the car is going fast, because currently, the wheel never vibrate at high speed so this is not really realistic, and make it boring...
edit. And would still like to see some trick to get those unused CSW's wheel menu options to work on XOne. Maybe One's ffb doesn't support that straight away but surely that can be reached somehow(?)
Here's my list:
Hardware:
1) Handbrake support! (I have my handbrake connected to the V2 pedals, it works in games like AC and Dirt, but still nothing on any Forza title on the Xbox One)
2) Have the game recognize the wheel as a 'controller' (to avoid getting the 'dark'-screen (sleep-mode) while driving with a wheel)
3) Display + rev-lights showing on CLS based wheels
4) Support for vibration on V3 pedals
5) Support for all the buttons on the wheel (now some are left unused like the RSB and LSB)
6) Support for the extra features from the wheel like we get on PC
7) Better solution for race starts (be able to put the car in 1st before the lights go green)
8) Have the max rotation of the wheel match the car when set to 'auto' *in wheel settings
9) Support for headset (or better support for using extra normal controller for headset)
10) Support for buttonbox
Software:
1) Have better FFB (like Assetto Corsa)
2) Have the wheel follow the front-wheel angle (this means when you drift, you should be able to let go of the steering wheel...the steering wheel would automatically rotate based on the change of angle of the front wheels when the rear steps out.)
Far behind the quality of the game itself!
Please tell them they have to fix this! And then I want a fix for FM6, too!
Hopefully they will listen to the users, update the FFB and the ability to make seat / FOV adjustments etc.
As Forza is a great title, let down by a few (very minor but significant) issues :-bd
Would also love the led and pedal vibes support.
1. ABS connected to pedal vibration. Preferably for V1/2/3 pedals (I still use my V1s)
2. Better/stronger "bumpiness" when driving over curbs. Too soft in FM6
3. Ability to put into first from standing start before green light
4. Remove that pulling that happens from time to time at higher speeds even if I go straight. It's a floaty feeling. Need to test more to better explain it.
5. When driving semi-auto (no clutch) auto open clutch when releasing accelerator fully, or at least allow the option. This in order to avoid engine break when driving over water spots on circuit. Maybe add this option to a button somewhere.
6. Handbrake support (even if I don't actually have one)
7. Adjustable setting what to show on wheel display. Position, speed, gear, multi-info (gear for a few seconds after shifting, then speed, adjustable "gear hang time" so I can set it to show gear for 1/2/3s after shifting before reverting back to speed). Possible to add G force on display?![:) :)](https://forum.fanatec.com/resources/emoji/smile.png)
8. Flat spots on tire model. I.e. when running without ABS and locking wheels, tires should have flat spots. These should be felt in wheel. Assetto does this.
9. Try to match in car wheel to steering wheel when set to 900degrees.
10. Removable in car wheel. I would like to see the dashboard, but I have a physical wheel in front of me. No arms and wheel in game please! (I have my own in front of me)
11. VR support![:) :)](https://forum.fanatec.com/resources/emoji/smile.png)
12. Kinect support with that VR support. Model/turn in game wheel based on my wheel when using VR. Should be possible without Kinect aswell, but could be possible to model arms and wheel using Kinect.
i bought the CSL Elite, before i had a G920. The fanatec is way way better, but here is not the fact :
Could you please tell them to remove the "auto center force" that is always active on Forza Horizon 3 on Xbox One ? it kill the gameplay when playing with a wheel, nobody understaind why this is here, but it is : By exemple, when stopped, if we turn our wheel, and release it, it will return to center very fastly with strong force. And when driving, this force is added to the "normal force feedback" so it is really too strong. All the wheel gamers told them on the forums, but they never respond. This is even more weird because on PC, the game has not this probem, so please, could you tell them to change this ? The Wheel management in Forza Horizon 2 was perfect, they should bring it back as it was. Please, tell them about this.
