    I recently downloaded and installed R3E and had a couple of problems. First off the game wouldn't recognize my Fanatec v3 pedals. I have the pedals plugged into the USB port and not my v2 base. I tried creating a profile, etc and nothing worked. And secondly if the program lost focus it would minimize the screen. I was trying to stream and any time I hit the OBS screen R3E minimizes.

    Thanks,
    John

    Can't help you with the pedals, but to stop R3E minimizing go to video options and turn Full-screen OFF.

    Just read a topic for the v2 pedals, where the guy had the same problem. It was suggested to use another USB port, create a new profil and remap the controls. I can't say if that had helped, though the guy didn't report back. Perhaps it's worth a try.

    Edit: Sorry, I misread your post, the topic about the v2 I read was with the pedals connected to the base. Perhaps changing the USB port does help you nevertheless.

    I'll try that. Funny thing is that I see the pedals on the screen but they are greyed out. I'll get a screenshot when I get home from work.

    John, just try to assign functions in your profile by doubleclicking and then applying throttle, brake and clutch. Plugged in with USB directly to my PC, RR didn't show my V3 peddals as well.

    I think I tried that and it didn't work.

    :(
    Actual firmware and driver? Maybe reinstall is necessary? Just to check all possibilities.

    Ok things working great. Need to decide what cars and tracks to purchase to compete in some races.
