I don't see anything in there about pedals. I'm guessing it will only support pedals that are connected to wheels. I'm not going to get FM6 Apex or FH3 until they support all wheels and pedals for the PC. What good is it to have a racing game on the PC if we can't use our high end wheels and pedals?

I just tried it. It does recognize my T500 but does not recognize my pedals.

Make sure you give us your review. I bet you'll love it. Which package did you get? I have been running SimCommander for SimVibe and it is handy. I got the base Accuforce. I also purchased a Q1R quick release system that I will use for my Accuforce GT rim and my Fanatec oval rim. I also sent my Fanatec F1 rim to Sam Maxwell and he is going to mod it to work with my Q1R system and it will have button and paddle shifter functionality via a coiled USB cable. That will cost me about $300. My wheel arrives on Thursday and so I will post a thread with some thoughts next weekend.

Here is what Darin Gangi said this week on the Simxperience forums. He does customer service for them now. "We heard back from them [Turn 10] today actually. They are working to add multi peripheral support (no date set) and with that, we hope the AccuForce will be included in the supported wheels list." Simxperience sent Turn 10 an Accuforce wheel a while back.

No, I have the Main Performance pedals. They plug USB.

I guess I won't be getting FM6 Apex or FH3 anytime soon. Still no word on multiple controller support. I've also read that the FFB in FH3 is terrible, basically just center spring. Some people are saying they gave up trying to play it with a wheel and are just using a controller.
Sorry, but if I'm going to play a racing game on my PC, I need to be able to use my wheel and pedals.

FM3 is really bad with a wheel, but it's the best handling Forza game ever with a controller. Although I understand your reluctance to get it without wheel support Troy, It is an excellent game.

I downloaded the demo on my Xbone and tried it with the controller. I agree the graphics are great and the handling was ok, but I just can't play dedicated driving games with a controller. The only game I don't mind driving with a controller is GTA. I also pre-ordered Mafia III and will be using a controller for that. But those games have you out of the car as much as in it.

Troy, turn on traction control and ABS and switch to manual gears, no clutch. That is how I am running both Forza 6 Apex and FH 3 with my Xbox One controller and they feel great. The vibration in that controller is much improved over the Xbox 360 controller and I am now very comfortable driving with it. I am in no rush for multiple controller and Accuforce support.

I have been using a wheel for pc racing since 1997 and I'm not about to switch to a controller now. I even used a wheel for Forza 1 on the original xbox. Maybe by the time they have proper wheel support, the game will be half price.

"No one on the forum knows"
How does he know that?
