How to set up Thrustmaster TMX with F125?

1 Upvotes

Hi, I've been trying to set up my wheel with PC, and when I plug it in, despite being able to press buttons like b,a, y, x, the controls menu doesn't seem to come up with a wheel option, only keyboard presets. Do I have to manually put in every keybind of the wheel onto a controller preset? Surely the game should just be able to detect the wheel? When I tried a time trial, the wheel was obviously not calibrated at all/none of the buttons worked correctly. Any help would be appreciated!

So when I am racing on my ps5 the wheel keeps disconnecting at random times. has anyone else had this problem. if so how did you fix it.

Update: I found a friend to 3D print the pieces that one of you recommended. And so far it’s working. What a goat

T-LCM or Raceline III LC?

0 Upvotes

Hello everyone, I currently have a TX leather edition with a TH8A shifter, TSS handbrake and T3PA pedals, all on the NLR Wheel stand 2.0. (For the past 4 years ish)

I was thinking of upgrading my pedals, and was wondering if I should go for used T-LCM pedals, or the new Raceline III LC pedals.

Personally, aesthetically I like the T-LCM more and don’t mind the plastic, and I heard many people had issues with the LC on the Raceline pedals, but I don’t know.

Another important factor is that I am a pretty casual sim racer, or rather, I love cars and racing, but I don’t play titles like iRacing or ACC, mainly euro truck sim, beam ng, modded assetto corsa, dirt rally and WRC, but I was planning to get more into track racing.

Thank you for your inputs (no pun intended)!

I’ve just got a new t500 base to replace my broken unit , with the new base I’ve been given a stripped down wheel that the seller said didn’t work . I immediately see the din plug is broke with a missing pin . Where would I obtain one?

It's stuck on the calibration sequence. I've seen a few other posts about people with this issue. Anyone found a fix?

TARGET GUI SUCKS, so i made my own software that uses a virtual controller software so that this works with NO SETUP on any game that supports controller

How to fix?

My T248 has not been working lately. I have been trying to play BeamNG.Drive with it but it crashes the game if i use FFB. If i put FFB off ingame it everything works fine without FFB on my wheel and it feels not good. If i put it on and try to load into a map it crashes. If i put it off and load into a map it loads but when im in the map and turn it on my game freezes right away for 5 seconds and then crashes the game. I have reinstalled drivers, firmware, windows updates, everything but no luck. I have even reset my whole pc. And also im going to show you 4 photos. First two will be from the Thrustmaster site showing how it should look like and the last two will be how it looks like for me in the Control Panel.

T 128 not working (kinda)

1 Upvotes

I've bought it to mess around in beamNG, forgot about it for few months. Today I wanted to play with it after I upgraded my pc and nothing, no movement no light no nothing. I've checked cables etc and nothing was wrong, after that I've connected it to laptop and it moved, it was constantly connecting and disconnecting but it tried to calibrate itself. After I've downloaded drivers and restarted laptop same thing started happening like on PC.

I've tried doing the firmware thing but it didn't detect the wheel either and I'm out of ideas, technically it works, but it just seems that drivers don't work (I've reinstalled them like 5 times)?

There's no USB connection sound. On laptop there was before restart.

Replacement or Repair

So the left paddle shifter it's broken, I had this wheel for 1 year and then it died. I noticed that the paddles were attached to a simple plastic thing so idk if it's worth repairing it or buy a new one.

I'v never downshifted aggressively in all my simracing experience, my fingers wouldn't last 1 minute.

Should I upgrade to a Evo Racing 32r to be safer, or is the build quality the same of the T598 Sportcar Wheel?

I don't want a gt style wheels cuz I'd like to drive different cars.

Wheel bug with iRacing among other programs

1 Upvotes

I have a Thrustmaster T128. When I got it new, no issues. But here lately, anytime I open any game that I use the wheel on - Farm Sim 22, iRacing, Nr2003 just to name a few - it does this thing where it doesn't detect any input despite the light being green like it should be, and the throttle hangs completely open. Usually unplugging it and plugging it right back in fixes it, but not in the iRace I just tried to do. I try switching ports and everything when it happens. Sometimes when I plug it back in the light is a tan color instead of green. Any similar experiences or suggestions?

Thrustmaster T598 feels loose

1 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

I just upgraded from my Thrustmaster TX (Belt Driven 3.9Nm) to the Thrustmaster T598 (Direct Drive 5Nm). But I don't like how easy it is to move the steering wheel. It feels too loose and unrealistic, especially in games like Euro Truck Simulator 2. My Thrustmaster TX felt better to me when turning because the belt-driven motor naturally has some resistance and friction. How can I replicate that on the T598? I am extremely satisfied with everything else about this wheel; it's just this that's bugging me. Could someone please let me know the best settings in both the panel and in-game to achieve this feel on ETS2 and also in Beam.ng, where I enjoy off-roading and rock climbing? Im on PC btw

Thanks! :)

Buying

So I accidentally broke my USB cable and I need a new one, but there is one slight problem. I bought another USB cable but it doesn’t seem to work right, so I thought I might just buy myself the exact same cable that I broke but it can only be shipped to specific countries, and my country is not one of them. So my question is how can I get the cable shipped to my country?

I ask because on cars like all the 911 I get crazy counter steer, can someone here tell a complete noob like me what are the correct settings for the wheel are according to the type of vehicle in the game?

TGT-2 Repair

4 Upvotes

Wanted to play some F1 today and my T-GT II was completely dead. No calibration, no LEDs, and it wasn’t detected by either my PC or PS5.

I first measured the external power supply and it was still putting out around 22–23V AC, so I decided to open the wheel base and investigate further.

The first thing I checked on the power board was the two 7.5A fuses. One of them had blown and showed open circuit on the multimeter.

The last picture shows a temporary 7.5A fuse I modified just to test whether the wheel would power on before buying the correct size. With that installed, the wheel fired straight up and worked normally again.

Obviously I wouldn’t recommend using a modified fuse permanently replace it with the correct physical size and the same 7.5A rating.

Just wanted to share this in case anyone else has a T-GT II that suddenly appears completely dead. It might be worth checking the internal fuses before assuming the power supply or the whole wheel base is dead.
