I also play periodically but never tried a VR controller with it to know, sorry.
I was pleasantly surprised that I was able to dust off a 1st gen PS2 Logitech wheel for Gran Turismo 2, get it recognised under Win10 without any hassle (and FF support just needs one Logitech driver), and for AC to be totally happy with that. Was still a student when this thing last saw use hehe.
At first I wasn’t sure where to set it up, as my main, ancient, gaming desk has a lip, so the clamps don’t work. Decided to screwdriver off the lip, it’s only been attached for 25 years or so
