Wheels, wheels, wheels!

We launched with support for just a handful. Now we've confirmed hundreds of unique wheel setups working in the wild. A MASSIVE thanks to the community who reported bugs, dumped logs and helped us untangle the chaos that is trying to add wheel support to a game. Wheel support is genuinely hard (every setup is its own special cocktail of conflicts and you have to have all the gear to even test it on), which is why it didn't ship day one. But we're committed to getting everyone racing. Got a wheel that's still acting up? Hop in the Discord, grab our shiny new diagnostic tool, run it, and we'll get you sorted fast.

Custom Songs Are HereDrop your MP3s and M4As into a folder and BOOM — they show up in-game like they were always there. Title, artist, song skip, the works. Whether you're chasing that Flat Out 2 nostalgia or vibing to your favorite 90s/2000s bangers, your soundtrack is now your soundtrack. Music + racing = pure serotonin.

Multiplayer Voice ChatShipped right after launch — talk smack, call out crashes, coordinate mayhem. We're just getting started here. Next up we're eyeing a proper lobby system: spectate other racers while you wait, or jump into solo races to kill time before the lobby fills (haven’t decided all the specifics, but we definitely can’t wait to continue improving the multiplayer experience).

Bug SquashingCrashes? Crushed.
Frame pacing issues? Fixed.
CPU can't keep up slowdowns? Handled.
A mountain of other fixes we won't bore you with.

My Wheel Doesn’t Work — What Should I Do?

If your wheel is not working, it may not currently be supported by the game. However, there are a few troubleshooting steps you can try first.

1. Disconnect Other Controllers

Other connected controllers or peripherals can sometimes interfere with your wheel inputs.

To check this:

• Open Windows Game Controllers

• Check which devices are currently being recognised

• Disconnect any unnecessary controllers or peripherals

2. Manually Bind Your Wheel Controls

You may need to manually assign your wheel buttons and pedals in-game.

To do this:

1. Open Options

2. Go to the Controls tab

3. Select the action you want to bind (for example, Nitro)

4. Press the button or pedal you want to assign

If the game detects the input, it will automatically bind that control to the selected action.

3. Wheel Inputs Are Not Detected

If your wheel, pedals, or buttons do not register any input, the device may not currently be recognised by the game.

While we are working to support as many wheel and pedal setups as possible, not all devices are currently supported. To help us improve compatibility, please generate and send us a wheel diagnostics log.

How to Generate a Wheel Diagnostics Log

1. Start the game with your wheel and pedals connected

2. Try using the wheel in-game:

Navigate menus

Drive in a race

Press buttons and pedals

3. Open Options

4. Under the Control Settings tab, select Export Wheel Diagnostics

5. Navigate to the following folder on your PC:

C:\\Users\\*YourUsername*\\AppData\\Local\\FlatOut4

6. Locate the file named Wheel Diagnostics

7. Rename the file to match the name of your wheel or pedal set

8. Send the renamed file to us for investigation

What If I Can Bind Buttons but the Wheel Doesn’t Work During a Race?

This is usually caused by VR Motion Steering being enabled.

To disable it:

1. Open Options

2. Go to the Control Settings tab

3. Ensure that VR Motion Steering is turned Off

Once disabled, test the wheel again in a race.
