F1 2018 Special Edition wheel and F1 2020 Flag Lights

Hello:
I have a F1 2018 special edition wheel as well as a v2 wheel base and v3 pedals. I want the flag lights on my wheel to work with the game f1 2020. I used to play f1 2018 and could never get it to work because I thought that the f1 2018 game did not support it. I know that the f1 2020 game supports it, but I cannot figure out how to get it working.
Thanks

Which driver are you running?
Fanalab 1.54.2
wheel base 680
streering wheel 38
Pc driver 381
And you clicked on Enable Telemetry and Enable FanaLab's LEDs in FanaLab so the Fanatec LED option is set to OFF in the game so FanaLab can take control over the LEDs so they dont interfere?
Should (and is) working fine when you followed all steps properly...
Yes, and when I go to the properties, I can verify that the lights are working, but not in game
Do you have other programs like SimHub running?
Working fine for me and everyone else so must be something wrong on your side..
Can you post a screenshot of the in game telemetry page?
No other programs running. Must be on my side, but I don't know what it is
are you also using the UDP port 20888 in Fanalab? you can change that when clicking on enable Telemetry.
Yes, Capture 2 above shows that I am using UDP port 20888.
My bad, I overlooked this 😅 could you try to disable the UDP broadcast mode and set both UDP ports to 20777?
Still does not work. But interestingly, I found something out. If I turn on fanatec LEDs in game, I get rev lights and speed, but when it is off I get nothing. In both cases, there are no flag lights at all
yeah that's because you enable the native LED support of the game itself. FlagLEDs are not natively supported.
Any Ideas? I really appreciate everyone's help
Im reinstalling F1 2020 now to see if I get it working as I have the same wheel ;)
Got it - its because you have enabled the UDP Boradcast Mode - this HAS to be Disabled!
Also note that your LED percentages are completely off and most of the RevLEDs will never light up because they all end already on 91% with the Flash which you have set to 99% so your LEDs will never flash...
Actually, FlagLEDs ARE natively supported by F1 2020 when using the Fanatec LED option in game and no FanaLab. ^^
Good news for me atleast Ahmed, initially it didn't work with either port 20888 nor 20777, I just closed F1 2020, set the UDP port to 20555 and it was set ingame correctly already.
With these ingame settings it does work for me now:
So what do you suggest my settings be? I'm so sorry as I did not understand the last bit of the comment
THANK YOU SO MUCH. This worked for me. I am very grateful for all your help.
You're welcome! Have fun!
