The wait that Fanatec teased back in April is over…almost. The latest Fanatec App (version 1.5.1.2) ships firmware that finally brings FullForce to the CSL DD and Gran Turismo DD Pro wheel bases, the affordable end of the company’s officially-licensed lineup. The only issue is it doesn’t work in Gran Turismo 7 yet. We flagged this update as coming when Fanatec announced it in April, alongside the power bumps for the pricier ClubSport DD and DD+ bases. Now the firmware is actually here. To get it, download and install the latest Fanatec App, which walks you through flashing the base. For the uninitiated, FullForce is Fanatec’s name for the high-frequency force feedback effects that ride on top of the main directional forces (like curb texture and road surface detail) sent straight through the motor. It’s the same technology that arrived in Gran Turismo 7 with the Spec III update last December. On a 5 Nm or 8 Nm base that was never built for it, the extra layer of detail is a welcome upgrade. The Catch Because of the way Gran Turismo 7 handles specific licensed hardware, FullForce is not currently active on the GT DD Pro when you’re actually playing the game. Fanatec says support is “coming in a future update,” but that’s up to Polyphony Digital, and there’s no date attached. It’s a little messy, as the wheel everyone bought for Gran Turismo now supports the feature that Gran Turismo added in December, except the two can’t talk to each other yet. GT DD Pro owners can feel FullForce in other supported sims today, just not in the one with its logo on the box. This is a “your hardware is ready, your game isn’t” situation, and the fix has to come from Polyphony’s side. If You’re Shopping
