I don’t have a DD2 so I don’t know if its possible for you upgrade the motor at this point which would then match the base - my question would be why not if it were me
The post by Madog says to downgrade base to a version that matches the motor and then start from there to upgrade both together
Hello everyone, I updated to 463, I have the clubsport dd+, after the update, the steering wheel loses the FFB and crashes, I am forced to restart the base. when do you solve the problem? You can't play like that! How can I go back to 455?
When you still experience disconnections with 463 then it is possible that your base has a hardware issue so it is best to contact the support at this point.
It is possible because the hardware issue might not have been triggered previously but due to much more data flow because of the Bentley Firmware implementation now it is possible that the issue now came to life.
If you dont want your hardware issue to get repaired under warranty, you can of course rollback to driver 455 and do a manual firmware downgrade as explained in the official driver and firmware instructions, but this wouldnt solve the issue long-term as at some point you will have to update the firmware again to get new wheels compatible with your base. So I would advise you to contact the support to get the faulty base repaired.
On my M4 GT3 steering wheel connected to a CS DD + base I cannot make LEDs work properly in any game. Non of the profile provided for this rim by Maurice work normally LED wise. In ACC for example, when I turn on PIT speed ( and in Fanalab I set all LEDs to Purple color for pitspeed) Only half of them work in "pit speed" mode, then when I turn pitspeed off and on back again, random LEDs light up. I tried setting everything to default and so on, without a success. None of custom LEDs work properly in an active way - they react to flags in a random wrong way and they cannot work as a rev or traction control warning. This Rim is 2 years old and yet there are still troubles with software. Now I heard its a Clubsport DD plus related issue and it does not handle well LEDs. But LEDs reacting to a game is a core function of 1.5k euro BMW steering wheel. Please repair it for the next drivers package. ( a lot of LEDs in this post)....
The other issue is that I and I guess all the Clubsport DD plus owners, still get a slight wheel vibration at any NFR above 5% ( it is also present on 1% NFR but barely perceptible ).
As already explained in another thread: both issues are known Firmware issues to be fixed at some point in the future (not in the next driver package as requested from you, likely not even this year).
Thank you, and Thank you!! I followed your instructions and I now have a working wheel again on Driver 450😊😁 Although 463 will still not install! Right now I shall ignore that, I'm just happy I have my wheel and need to go play for a bit to get my sanity back...Thanks again and to Allan Lehtla too 😉
ITM Freezes on the GT SW X is a known Firmware issue with this specific wheel (actually it has tons of ITM related issues). They are on the list to get investigated at some point in the future.
Good news so far then, well done, I knew you could do it.
Next I personally would make a Windows System Restore point of the working system, so that when you try other things, you can restore windows back to a known good state with Fanatec driver setup if anything catastrophic happens.
Re: Installing Fanatec Drivers v463 or other versions issue.
No words of wisdom on this one, as I have never had a problem installing Fanatec Drivers before, but have seen others with the issue and no resolution, except that Anti-virus software was deleting parts of the Fanatec drivers as they were created on disk drive during the install, obviously making the install fail part way through.
So with Windows 10 & 11 which uses "Microsoft Defender Anti-Virus", try putting in a exemption (Allowed Threats) for Fanatec Software.
Check that Windows 10 Security -> "Core Isolation" -> "Memory Integrity" is still turned off, some drivers may fail if this is turn on.
Recommend not to use Revo-Uninstaller when removing Fanatec Software.
In the software discussion for the 457 says: Download link was removed as driver 455 is more stable than 456 and 457 and we are working on a new driver to fix the disconnection issues on 457 which will include the separate firmware versions posted above.
So, download the 455 from the forum as it’s still available.
About downgrade, I have never tried it, so can’t say much. But as you will contact support for a repair worth to give it a try ;)
I saw some other comments relating to missed up and downshifts but am unsure if this has been officially addressed.
I just upgraded my DD2 and ClubSport Formula V2.5 to the new 463 Driver and now I'm experiencing missed up and downshifts (more so on the up-shifts). This has never been a thing before, so I'm assuming it has to do with the new Driver updates.
Is this something else others are experiencing? Is there a fix coming? What's the best course of action to correct this?
If this has already been discussed, could someone direct me to that thread / message (and apologies for a double post)?
I did it, you have to install 455 driver then mark manual installation option then flash for example on the base the firmware associate with the driver

Thank you, Allan, you and MadDog-IC have been most helpful 😉
Hello,
Thanks for the info! So, with 463 there is an issue with upshift for the APM? Or combination Podium Hub with APM etc.
Thanks again!

My base has never had this problem with the old versions, how is it possible? I only updated because I saw the update on the site

Thank you very much!! I will Contact support immediately!
I have the Porsche podium steering wheel, can it be that one? Or do you think it's the base? Sorry to ask but everything has worked great so far!!!

Sorry to bother you, is there a guide for downgrading? I would do it in the time I wait for the answer of the support
Sorry removed

Did anyone have the fix for ITM freezing after updating to latest fanalab and fanatec drivers DD extreme user here

Hallo, ich habe immer noch das Problem, dass ich keine Abstürze mit habe

I would like to downgrade from 463 to 457, where can i find the driver to download?
You cant. 457 was pulled and is no longer available.
can I go back to the 455? at least to play in the time that support responds to me
Ciao Niccolo,

Me too I have the issue I downgrade to previous firmware, we have to wait for a new one
Check my posts in that thread, this is one with firmware newer than 3.0.4.3
Ciao Luca, tu che base hai?? io una clubsport DD+, che problema hai?
Hi Guys
Will we ever get a definite fix for:
The steering input jump issue was greatly improved so the issue happens a lot less than before. Full fix expected for one of the next versions.?
I'm tired of getting these jumps during endurance races ....
Cheers
