Using SQ1.5 Shifter AND paddles in-game?

Just got a V2.5 base, Formula V2 and CSL Elite wheels - in the past I would use a tool called JoyToKey to map the paddles on my Thrustmaster TX base to a keyboard key (U/D) and then do the same with the SQ1.5 - that way in game I would bind up and down to those keyboard keys and I could use either the paddles or the shifter depending on what I wanted.

This doesn't work with the v2.5 and Formula V2 wheel, no matter what I bind the game (Project Cars 2 is all I've tested with) will only use the paddles, it completely ignores the keyboard binds. I have the SQ1.5 connected separately via USB with the adapter (as it'll be challenging to run a cable all the way up to the wheel base).

Thoughts?

    Hey Ross,

    if you'd connect the CSS through your base you could map the SQ shifter to your paddles in the property page.

    Afaik this is currently the only option.

    Would that let me use either of them while playing, as in I could use the paddles one second then use the SQ1.5 the next or do I have to switch it in the driver and choose one or the other?

    you can use both without needing to switch anything in the driver once you have that checkbox enabled. Just give it a try.

    Okay thanks, I'll see if I can track down a standard Rj11 cable - can you confirm that's all I need? That's certainly what it looks like.

    Thanks again.

    RJ12 is the connection you need.

    Well I suppose they needed more pins than a standard 2-pin RJ11. At least they used a standard jack type.

    Thanks.
