Wheels compatibility is still in early phase with Retrobat, it might be possible that for many Emulators, specific configuration is required to make it work correctly.

There are multiple wheels on the market, however, only a few have been tested so far.

Wheel games detection

Daytona USA is compatible

The list of Wheel games is stored in an .xml file inside your Retrobat folder, if you find that some games appear in the list but are not Wheel games, you can remove them from the file and manage your own list

Wheels Configuration

Wheel Activation

Wheels can be activated for a system or for a game.

To activate Wheels for a system, from the Game View, open the View Options and select ADVANCED SYSTEM OPTIONS

Navigate to WHEELS

Switch WHEELS to ON

The same can be done per game from the Game Options menu and ADVANCED GAME OPTIONS

Wheel Devices compatible with RetroBat

RetroBat does not offer option to play with a wheel without throttle / brake pedals, it is required to have both devices when turning on the wheels option.

The gear stick, however, is optional.

Logitech G29

Logitech G920

Logitech G923

Thrustmaster T300RS

It is very important for this wheel that pedals are set to split in the Thrustmaster Control Panel tool.

Also, ensure that pedals are not inverted (this can be fixed by maintaining MODE + L3 + R3 buttons).

Emulators compatibility

The following list of emulators have been configured to be compatible with wheels autoconfiguration:

Emulator
Force feedback
Remark

Model 2

YES

RetroBat offers per-game specific mapping

Supermodel

YES

Flycast

NO (needs external tool)

RetroBat offers different button layouts to map throttle and brake pedals

PCSX2

YES but need to open menu and configure it each time

Might need to modify the wheel type in the advanced options

Configuring a wheel

Wheel mapping for a specific wheel can be configured in the files located in the system\resources\inputmapping\wheels of your RetroBat installation:

this is an example for Flycast:

Each wheel must be in its own container, with the buttons below it with a 2 space indent.

The LogitechG29 wheel can be used as example.

To build the file for your wheel, configure the wheel in Flycast, save, open the configuration file created in the emulators\flycast\mappings folder and report the values.

The name of the container for the supported wheels can be found here.
