how to manage multiple wheels in AC?

[Peter Klawitter]

hi all, am wondering if anyone can successfully swap between USB steering wheels?

i tried to swap 2-3 steering wheels in AC, but it seems AC doesn’t work or recognize by a “specific hardware identification number” meaning, when i change the steering wheel, i have to reassign the shifters, rotaries and buttons every time. even when i save each steering wheel as its own profile in AC, there is problems when swapping out steering wheels.

does anyone know of a work around or specific way to have AC understand there is multiple steering wheels.

thanks all for your help.

I make my own wheels, and generally do a set up using content manager and save it as a preset. That way when I switch out a gt3 rim for my F1 or LMP style rims I just swap and activate the preset. Not sure I could do it with plain AC though, but content manager is defintely worth the few quid.

The problem is the "hardware identification" AC uses can change, as it uses a unique ID generated by usb, not something global to all devices of that kind. I believe the main thing that helps is to ensure they're always plugged into the specific usb port that the device goes with, but sometimes (like on my old DFGT) it'll still be generating different IDs every time it's plugged in.

Can you show me how to do this if possible please, i have a formula and a round wheel, but i dont know how to make the bindings and preset diffrent from each other.

Are you using content manager? If you are, just go intot eh assetto corsa tab, and click on controls. You'll see a window that says MAIN, ADDITIONAL, SYSTEM, PATCH you just go into them and bind the buttons as needed, and then just press save preset and name it to the wheel you have just bound . If you're on vanilla AC grab content manager and you'll be good to go
