TOPIC: G25 i can't switch gear in automatic mode

G25 i can't switch gear in automatic mode 14 May 2015 08:51 #44928

Hi,

Just bought the game, i use a g25 and i play with automatic clutch on.

I played the career mode smoothly until i arrived to "Road signs and traffic lights monitoring" mission.

I start the engine, pull parking brake then the game told me to depress brake then switch gear multiple times with "paddle on the wheel button 6".

I press and depress the brake, press the paddle for "gear up", nothing happens.

I watched on the internet to see if someone solved this problem and find that i should put off "retain the gear while button...". I did it.

Same problem : gears are not shifting.

So i read that i should switch from H mode, to automatic mode on the G25. I did it and correct the gear up and down in settings.

I tried this mission again. Nothing is switching no matter how i press or depress the break while switching before, during and after the gear.

I'm lost...

Can someone help me please?;)

Are you holding the brake? If so, remap the brake again. That control can be messed up.

What I did is that I assigned controls for gear up/down with the controls above the gear shifter. Sometimes the gear up/down buttons are used as a tiptronic in the game. That way, the controls should work.

Try also switching to 1, 2, or 3 gear with your gear shifter. If it switches to these specific gears in the auto gearbox, then that is the problem.

I have the same problem with my G27, usually when I rrstart the game (sometimes once, sometimes twice) it starts working again.

Unfortunately last time I wanted to play it didn't work no matter how often I restarted, I will see if it works again today

Thannks for you answers.

Unfortunately i tried to change the gears up and down to buttons above the gear shifter. But when i press brake, depress brake (brake that i reassigned in settings) nothing happens when i use gears up/ gears down newly assignated buttons.

I can see that accelerate and brakes work, clutch is desactived, lights and everything works but the gear shifter is dead.

It's spoiling my game... i was enjoying career mode... i have to pass my driving license test soon so i hoped i could train with city car driving but as it is now i'm stuck.

Any official help on this topic would be appreciated.


Edit : I tested it with the keyboard as main control. I used down arrow for break, A for gears up, Z for gears down.

I press brake, i see that it works as i can see the brake bar moving up or down.

Then the game ask me to press A. I press A while the brake is on maximum, i press A during the depression of the brake, or after the brake is released. Nothing.

How is it possible to start this mission :blink:

I find the solution. I went to the mission file 2.2 and modify gear auto in gear manual.

In game i can now shift the gears as usual with the H.

But there is another problem now, it's the brake which is always partially pressed (mid-bar) and the only way to release the brakes is to accelerate.

It makes the brake's bar go down but i have to accelerate a lot more to move.

I'll find where it comes from, i hope/

You should hold the brake while swithcing the automatic gearbox modes. Not depress it before the switching.

Remap controls. before remapping them, you MUST hit the "Default Settings" button under controls. otherwise, it won't work.
I have this issue sometimes. I have a g27 btw. I just fix this by clicking "Default Settings" under controls and remapping my controls to the g27, and i get the game up and running fine and dandy just like before.
Halt, Tropfen und explodieren.



p.s. i like topgear and stuffs yey

Thanks you guyz for your answer.

To tell the truth i did this mission in manual gear so i don't have a problem anymore. I remapped the keys and even the brake works as intended.

Cya on the road (maybe ^^)
