I can now confirm this combo DOES NOT work, thanks SCS! I can use a keyboard and my SST though...***** even rFactor supports keyboard, mouse, G27 and my SST. Thanks a lot! <3

No need to be so negative, i am sure the combo will work but it might need some setting up.
What have you tried so far?

Going to the controller tab and trying to select a combo I want. But I can't.

I can have a G27 + Keyboard or a Keyboard + SST Shifter, who buys a shifter and drives on a keyboard!?

Make sure you go through all settings and select the type of controller you want to use.

I'm blind, you can enable the SST BELOW where you select Keyboard + G27... Damnit I feel like an idiot :oops:

Well... you're not an idiot. Just need to make sure, next time, that you tried everything and the, if you still can't get it working, first ask and then blame.
Glad to hear you solved it.
It would be nice if you post a screenshot with the exact location and menu page where you found your solution, to let others benefit too.
Cheers.

See, i told you so in my first post... Always try to remain calm and if you cannot find something then ask and don't blame.
Have fun driving!

Back to this topic, since installing my G510s (Logitech Keyboard), it seems my SST no longer wants to work. I've tried everything, if you name it I've tried it trust me. Windows detects it however in ETS2 I can't select a gear, ETS2 is picking it up fine too, just doesn't want to work :S

To be fair... If you have tried EVERYTHING then you are out of luck. There's nothing we can say to make it work now is there?
That said, create a new profile and see if it works in that one. If it does then clearly something is wrong with your setup in the current profile.
But guess what, if it's working in the second profile you can just copy "controls.sii" over from the second profile to your main profile and your main profile should work.

But of course you have already tried that, so it's pointless to suggest anything. Isn't it? ;)

You sir have a point! I emailed the company now dealing with excess stock says if I pay for shipping to and from the US then they'll rebuild it, tomorrow my dad may end up soldering the wire up so hopefully. I took it apart today, had a frayed wire, see attachment. Only fault I could find :(
