Force feedback not working? | Forums

[bramhaag]

I'm player TC2 Beta on Windows 10 with my Thrustmaster T150 RS wheel, however the force feedback isn't working properly. Instead of the wheel snapping to a side when drifting or the feedback increasing/decreasing when changing my speed, the feedback is just a constant force that tries to keep my wheel centered. Any way to fix this or is this an intended "feature"?

Same problem, i fired up the game and the ffb was horrible, wheel feels extremely stiff and hard to turn when ffb is on. The wheel doesn't fight back in response to the car. It just stays there, like no ffb at all but way stiffer. When cranking ffb all the way up, it kinda fights back and recenters but so stiff its unplayable. Some how i fixed it and it feels like its supposed to, but i came back the next day and same problem. Using thrustmaster tmx on windows 10. Pls help!

Been mucking around with it on and off for a few days [G29, PC, new drivers]. This is really weird and may sound a bit nuts, but at the recommendation of another post I tried this. If I first set the FFB to max in-game, then alt-tab out of the game while running and then alt-tab back into the game, for just a short time, maybe five, ten minutes, it almost feels ok. The wheel is easy to turn just like it should be, but hitting walls and such actually gives a tiny bit of FFB, not as much as it should, but some. And then as I continue to drive I almost feel like I hit a sweet spot where everything is almost not-terrible. I know that sounds nuts but I keep doing it and it keeps feeling like that, like the FFB is gradually increasing after each alt-tab reset.

Anyway, as I continue to play, the odd side effect that you note gradually increases. At 15 minutes, maybe less, it is back to the yanking-on-the-wheel thing. The wheel becomes very difficult to turn, just like as if I had just turned on 100% FFB in the settings and never alt-tabbed. So I alt-tab back out again to fix it. It's odd to say this because it seems like nonsense, but while I am just free driving this almost sort of works, though annoying, but I noticed that if I do the same thing before a race, it returns to that difficult-to-turn feeling much quicker, as in after a few turns. So I'm really not sure what is going on.

Regardless, even at it's best, the feeling is still pretty bad compared to The Crew 1 or pretty much any other game that works with the G29, but maybe try alt-tabbing. I've been alt-tabbing to steam or the Logitech profiler, but it doesn't seem to matter. See if you get similar or different results to what I've been seeing.

Listen, there are tons of us who want to play this game with our wheels. Reading through the threads you'll soon realize that "xxx is not officially supported" is the token response. The right answer would be for the devs to have had this working months ago in alpha, but maybe we can help each other a bit more as well if we just post what has worked for us.
