Issue: Roadside Repairs and Recover Vehicle Buttons don't function when OSD Buttons set to Off when using DD2 and R300 Podium wheel. PC Config Windows 10 1909 fully patched, 64 bit. Game and Setup Config Dirt Rally downloaded via Steam, dirtrally2 exe file version 1.14.130.3062 Fanatec DD2 R300 Podium Wheel PC Driver 346 Wheel Base Firmware 662 Wheel Base Motor Firmware 3 This also happens when Fanalab and the associated beta driver is loaded. MOR: Set the Roadside Repair button to say button 61 and Recover Vehicle to button 62. They can be any button it doesn't matter. Go into OSD Settings and enable Button Prompts. Crash your vehicle and hit the button your programmed for Recover Vehicle. It works. Blow out a tire and the same, the button programmed for Roadside Repairs works. You can hit any other programmed button and the all seem to work. Go back into OSD Settings and set Button Prompts to Off. Crash your vehicle and hit the button your programmed for Recover Vehicle. My guess is it won't work. Blow out a tire, the same Roadside Repair button doesn't work Once in a blue moon Roadside Repairs will work. Recover Vehicle never works. Try the other buttons with OSD Settings set to Off, they also work. It appears to be only Roadside Repairs and Recover Vehicle that don't function when Button Prompts is Off. As a side test: Program the keyboard for Roadside Repairs and Recover Vehicle and both work whether OSD for Button Prompts is on or off. It works correctly on the PS4. It seems to be isolated to the PC version of the game.

Not sure if this is an issue on the Codemasters or Fanatec side, any guidance is greatly appreciated. I'm running Windows 10 fully patched less 2004 update. I have a Fanatec DD2 and R300 Podium wheel. When I program the Roadside Repairs and Recover Vehicle button assignments they only work if I enable Button Prompts in OSD Settings. IOW: Set the Roadside Repair button to say button 61 and Recover Vehicle to button 62. They can be any button it doesn't matter. Go into OSD Settings and enable Button Prompts. Crash your vehicle and hit the button your programmed for Recover Vehicle. It works. You can hit any other programmed button and they also work. Now go back into OSD Settings and set Button Prompts to Off. Crash your vehicle and hit the button your programmed for Recover Vehicle. My guess is neither will work, or once in a blue moon Roadside Repairs will work. Recover Vehicle never works. Try the other buttons with OSD Settings set to Off, they also work. It appears to be only Roadside Repairs and Recover Vehicle that don't function. I'm using the Fanatec 346 driver and the corresponding firmware. Does the same with Fanalab and it's driver. Support told me to contact Codemasters, I'm not a programmer so I'm not sure if it's a problem on the Fanatec side or Codemasters. If I program the two buttons on the keyboard, disable OSD button prompts, the keyboard shortcuts work fine. It's only the wheel buttons when OSD Button Prompts is off. Robert
