Why doesn't Xbox support Fanatec rev lights and extra buttons? Currently limited to...

Hi and thanks for reaching Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.

Remember that this forum is mostly to get help/troubleshoot things with xbox

The creators of your steering wheel must create an Xbox driver to support their functions and then lobby game makers to include it with their game. Driver support must be baked into each individual game.

So they’re the ones you need to request to get it done.

Steering wheel makers will typically list which games are supported in the literature

Not according to the wheel manufacturers. In my correspondence with Fanatec they say there is a limitation in the Xbox software that doesn't allow functions like thumb rotators and LED lights to work and Xbox is aware of it and needs to change it.

Hi Brett

Below, find the list of wheels currently supported by Forza Horizon 3 on Windows 10 PCs. On Xbox One, Forza Horizon 3 supports all wheels currently supported by Xbox One.

The list of currently supported PC wheels for Forza Horizon 3:

Thrustmaster T150
Thrustmaster T500 RS
Thrustmaster TMX V1
Thrustmaster TMX V2
Thrustmaster T300RS
Thrustmaster TX
Thrustmaster RGT
Logitech MOMO Force Feedback Racing Wheel
Logitech G920
Logitech G929
Logitech G25
Logitech G27

Players can use the Logitech G27 and the Thrustmaster TX (and some TX variants, like the new Leather Edition), but these wheels have some limitations with their functionality in-game. While these wheels work on default or custom wheel settings, button mapping and force feedback are not properly recognized. These issues will be addressed in an upcoming update for Forza Horizon 3. In addition, there are additional wheels that we plan on bringing on board, notably Fanatec products such as the ClubSport V2 Xbox One Hub and the Fanatec CSR models. Support for these Fanatec wheels will be arriving in Apex beginning in late September, with updates for both Windows 10 and Apex.

From this, unfrotunately G923 is not compatible with Forza Horizon 3

Hello, Fanatec Support told me to contact the console developer. What ist the problem with the lights? PC and PS4 does it working.

It's official it will not work
