Can't get Racing wheel to work, please help.

I have a MadCatz MC2 racing wheel but the game just says it is unknown0 and won't do anything with my inputmap file. Please help, I've tried mapping this controller earlier on another computer too, but to no avail.

Edit:
I have also looked at others' problems with controllers and inputmaps and tried their suggestions, but it continues to no work.

 

I have the same problem, the input map should be right, but it always just recognizes the wheel as unknown0

 

With a vehicle on a map, press "L" ten times until you see "Debug mode 10 Input"
in the upper left corner.

Press your gas and brake and see if the input shows up on the screen.

Make note of those axis and update your inputmap.

 

That doesn't help with his specific problem. That only makes the buttons correct, not the unknown0 thing

 

It helps to know if the inputs are recognized by the game.

Your post didn't even attempt to help...

 

It actually did. I went through the exact same issue with my wheel, and that unknown0 thing is solved by putting this at the top after the product stuff in the inputmap:

%device = "joystick" @ %joyNum;

It creates a lua error, but now the %devices are defined (which was what was causing the unknown0 things to pop up). I have gotten that far with my wheel, and while it still doesn't work, I am figuring that out.

Happy now?
