Hurricane Steering Wheel and Pedals Instruction amended for PS4 Console

On A previous blog post, we mentioned the In-Game Control set up for the Hurricane Steering Wheel and Pedals PS4. 

However, there has been some instruction updates in setting up the Venom Hurricane Steering Wheel for PS4. Check the section in the instructions about firmware updates that you may need to follow:

There are also some compatibility issues with 1TB PS4 system C-Chassis (CUH-1200) model. We now include a USB hub in the box which resolves the problem and the steps to resolve this issues are as follow:. 

1. First start by connecting the USB Hub (supplied) into any spare port on your PS4 system.
2. Then connect the USB plug from your Hurricane Steering Wheel into any spare port on the USB Hub.
3. Now continue to follow the main instructions for Connection & Installation.

If you have already purchased this PS4 model and do not have have a USB hub, please get in touch with us via email ( info@hitari.co.uk ) and we will arrange for one to be sent to you.

Hurricane Steering Wheel and Pedals PS4 - In-Game Control Setup Guide

Here is a list of the games that we know the Hurricane Steering Wheel with Pedals for PS4 / PS3 might not work properly with and some guidance on how to use it with these games.

• The Crew PS4 (With this you have to use automatic gears)
• Need for Speed PS4 Games (You have to use automatic gears, also there are some pedal issues on PS3)
• Grand Turismo  (You have to use automatic gears, also there are some pedal issues on PS3)

There may be some issues with Project Cars PS4, but we are not 100% sure so if anyone has tested this with this game please confirm your findings.

It's not all Bad though, it is only 3-4 games that might have issues but the good news is the Hurricane Steering Wheel works fine with other PS3 / PS4 Racing and Car games including for sure Drive Club PS4 and F1 2015 PS4 as these were tested and confirmed working perfectly fine. 

It should be noted that you will need to change the control settings in game for the above two games and the instructions are as follow: 

Drive Club PS4
When in a race pause the game > setting > controls > dualshock4wireless controller > Button Configuration. Then change gear up to R1, Gear Down to L1 and make sure that there are no button clashes.


F1 2015 PS4
When in a race pause the game > Settings > Customise Controls > Driving Controls > Press Square > Gear Up to R1 > Gear Down L1 and make sure that there are no button clashes
  
The product manufacturer Venom is committed to improve their product and will hopefully eliminate the majority of faults that have come up and they will keep us informed of any software/firmware updates to ensure compatibility with as many racing games as possible.

Over all, it's a great PS4/PS3 essential product, officially licensed by Sony and reasonably priced with direct support from the manufacturer!
