Force feedback does not work on T300

[Sassy the Sasquatch]

when i enter the game my FFB does not work at all, i got it to work wfor 2 times but whenerver is switch games it completely stops working and i cannot find a simulair problem anywhere countering this issue.

I use a thrustmaster T300 RS, updated de software for it and nothing seems to be working.
it seems to be setting the ffb settings in de thrustmaster software down too 0 everyime is start the game or change any settings ingame

I am having a similar issue with my Thrustmaster T150. I verify force feedback is set to 75%, open Wreckfest, start a race and do not have force feedback. Once I close the game and look in the wheel settings, force feedback is set to 0%. It works fine in other games. I have the latest drivers from Thrustmaster.

Try this WF launch option, see if it has any effect:

I followed the instructions in the patch notes to add the launch config. However, that did not solve the issue.

This is exactly the issue I am having with my TS-XW wheel.

I have a TS-XW also and after I updated drivers today to the newest package "2023_TTRS_1" my forced feedback stopped working. It also sets my force feedback to 0% in the control panel when I run Wreckfest. This is very discouraging. I also tried a bunch of stuff but nothing seems to help.

Update: Today (Mar 16 2023) I reinstalled Thrustmaster "2022_TTRS_1" FFB drivers on my TS-XW wheel base and everything is working again. So much for the 2023 drivers, they really messed stuff up. So glad I kept a copy of the older 2022 drivers they were a lifesaver

Same issue the other day. Defaults it to 0% have to set it back every time it gets connected.

Thrustmaster released a firmware update yesterday (March 23rd). However. it did not fix the problem. At this point, reinstalling old drivers is still the best option.

[LeSpank]

Yep, 2.2023 drivers aren't working for me either :(

I have a T150 and I was running into this same problem BUT I just found a very simple solution that completely Fixed my FFB issue.

In the FFB settings, at the bottom. Thrustmaster provides a Wheel 'Auto-Centering' option, it is set to "by the Game" as the Default.

Change that Setting to "by the Wheel".

But is this true FF? or just wheel using force to center itself? In Wreckfest, are you still feeling the bumps of the tracks?, feeling the landings?

There is a constant centering force. However, some bumps can still be felt. Landings not so much. For now, it works. I would like to see Thrustmaster fix the overall issue though.

Here another post on the FFB issue:

Changing the ffb insettings ingame, also changes ffb in software to 0% of the Thrustmaster T500R. (1 tip, DONT change it back to what it was ingame. it will Crash the game aswell as the software. You wont be able to close the software of the wheel. Just restart the pc if it happens).

Further more, i have no idea how to get around this issue except to warn you about it here.

for the DEVs:
I think its an issue with the game that it changes to 0% ffb in the software and should be fixed.

Im also pretty positive that if it crashes becouse you change it back in the software while playing a game, its becouse of thrustmaster. (they warn you about this sinds last update)

This will only introduce you with fake center spring ffb, here is a workaround while TM/Bugbear fixes the issue related with the drivers/way the game handles them.

1st - open the TM panel and set your desired ffb force %, then open the game (while keeping the TM Panel open) and input the same force % as you set on the TM panel (do not enable forced center spring, thats garbage).

2nd - Close the game and open it again while keeping the TM panel open while playing (do not open the settings tab in the game while playing or the ffb will stop working), after this the ffb should work fine.

I have TS-Xw wheel also no ffb can anybody help to get the previous drivers.
Thanks in advance
