Force feedback help
I have a G920 and the force feedback works it's just I can't really understand the in-game settings and my wheel shakes when just driving. And overall just seems clunky.
What are your settings or anyone know what's wrong?

I use this...

It makes the wheel behave more like a real steering wheel and less like an effects box.

Search up each setting for the force feedback. Dampening/terrain/collision should be turned lower if you want your FFB to last. I usually copy over my settings for new profiles from my old ones so I don't have to change my settings every time.

I've looked at that plugin a few times, even downloaded it.
But was a bit unsure if it could be removed easily if I didn't like it.
Yeah I got it and it seems to be for the G27?

One of the FFB sliders is for "Engine" (or similar, can't remember exactly). When I first started playing I had to turn that one almost completely down or my wheel shook all the time.
ok I'll try that
It's still shaking. I don't know what I had before but it was fine but now I can't paly at all with FFB. I really wanted to play this game with it.

You'll be fine. You can remove it any time. Sometimes, I forget to run the 64bit version of the game and as I only installed the 64 bit plugin and have my LGS profile set to the 64 bit exe, I just end up with my global Logitech settings...which is so noticable I know exactly what I have done. (Edit: Though, I'm fairly sure the profiler just looks at the exe name, which is the same for both versions. Either way, there's no harm.)

The only issue I have ever encountered with it was a conflict with vJoy but since I only used vJoy for flying in B17, I ditched vJoy and haven't had an issue since.

It should work with the G29 and 920 as far as I am aware. There were a number of posts in that thread around the time they were released and I'm fairly sure support was added in an update to it.

Edit: I will add, I only use the FFB plugin, I don't use the auto transmission plugin...if that's still relevant, I don't know.

Another edit: It doesn't like ALT+TAB either. When you get back in the game you'll have no FFB but you can just open up the console and type...

sdk reload

..this will bring everything back to that SAT feeling most sim racers are used to.

Ok I'll still try the plugin. So did you just drop the plugin in and changed anything else?

There's a readme file in the download, follow the instructions for more detail but essentially I...

1) Disabled FFB in game
2) Put the files in the appropriate folder
3) Set up an ETS 2 profile in the Logitech software with settings as recommended
4) Enjoyed the new FFB experience that's more in line with my expectations

I did, I think, change the button assignment in the .ini file that switches my LED function. I may also have tweaked gain settings, not sure about that without checking.
