Best CarX Street Settings for Logitech G29 / G920
CarX Street is the followup to CarX Drift Racing Online. It's a port of a mobile game, which I've never played, but I can clearly see those grindy gameplay elements all over this. This is an open world, always online game, fairly similar to The Crew series.
As the name implies, it is no longer solely a drifting game. There are now normal street races in addition to the drifting events, though drifting is still a major focus of the game. The physics in this game are unlike anything else I've played. Even slightly breaking traction throws the car into a full drift mode. It takes some getting used to. I'm not a big fan of drifting, so I don't love this part of the game.
It has very basic wheel support. The Logitech G29 and G920 work, but you have to manually set them up and you still can't navigate the menus or other parts of the game UI, so keep your keyboard nearby. The force feedback is very basic, but it works.
In this guide, we will first look at the settings you need to set in G HUB. Then we will look at the in-game settings needed to get the wheel working its best.
G HUB Settings
CarX Street does not have a way to set the steering angle directly in the game, so you need to do it in G HUB. I find 360° works well, so the wheel can spin fast enough in the drift sections, and yet still have enough control in the street races.
Create a new profile for CarX Street with the following settings:
| Setting | Value |
|---|---|
| Operating Range | 360° |
| Sensitivity | 50 |
| Centering Spring | Off |
CarX Street Settings
In Settings > Game:
| Setting | Value |
|---|---|
| Show Wheel | Yes |
| Wheel Angle (visual) | 360° |
Show Wheel will show or hide the wheel when using the Cockpit camera.
Wheel Angle needs to be set to whatever you set in G HUB so that the wheel animation will match your real life movements.
In Settings > Controls:
Even though the wheel is recognized, I had to manually bind all the controls, including the pedals and all the buttons. Make sure to Calibrate each pedal individually and invert it to get the pedals to work properly.
| Setting | Value |
|---|---|
| Gearbox Type | Manual |
| Clutch Mode | Auto (personal preference) |
| Axis Visuals Controls | Off |
| Force Feedback | 0.6 |
Gearbox Type should be set to Manual so you have full control.
Clutch Mode is up to personal preference. If you have an H-pattern shifter, you likely want to set this to Manual.
Axis Visuals Controls turns on a HUD display that shows how far you are pressing each pedal and steering.
Force Feedback is the strength of all forces. If this is set too high, it can make the wheel feel sluggish, when it ought to be be easy to turn.
Conclusion
CarX Street isn't what I was expecting at all. I thought it would handle like a normal arcade racing game, but it still feels like a drifting game. I'm not really into drifting, so I'm probably not going to play this one very much.
