G29 auto centering while stationary with full force
ive been having issues with my g29 steering wheel. the wheel constantly fights to go back to center and is incredibly stiff. I have G hub up and configure the wheel but once i enter ATS the wheel just goes back to fighting me. its unplayable, anybody know a fix?

Turn off autocentering in the setups, it's meant to be used with controllers and mouse I believe.

Turn Off the FF override in ghub if activated.
Or turn the FF ingame Off if you use both, as such problems can happen if you have both active.

I unchecked F/F in-game and the wheel is still stiff. In LGS, I have "Allow game to adjust Force Settings". Also tried it with this setting unchecked, but wheel is always stiff.

Leave your LGS at default settings. In game in the Controls options select Reset which will reset the FFB settings. Then go through the Wizard again and then adjust your FFB settings to your preference.

Thanks for the tip, but no luck. Still stiff as a board.

Make sure your wheel is plugged directly into your computer and don't use a USB-Hub. Also, you can try plugging into different USB ports on your computer. One thing to remember is also having the wheel set to PS4 and not PS3. I had a G29 years ago but had forgotten about that until someone posted in the forum about that the other day. Failing in all that then I suggest you reinstall the Logitech G-Hub.

If all that doesn't work then I am out of ideas.

I think you missed the key words in this comment .. LGS or Logitech Gaming Software ..
..Stop using G-hub and switch to the Logitech Gaming Software.

I have a G29, and have no issues up to v1.44 (have not played v1.45 yet) ..set the LGS to default profile and default settings, then use the ATS setup menu to adjust FF and auto-center .. works perfectly fine with LGS, G-hub is known to cause problems in ATS/ETS.

Is it?
Never had any issue with it (and the games) as it does the exact same things as the lgs.

Well, here is the OP using G-hub, and having a problem, soooo...

Seriously tho, a lot of the issues people have with Logi wheels is solved by switching to the LGS and not using G-hub, and there are a few articles on different forums about it. It is quite common.

Same, I use LGS for my G29 (main reason GHUB doesn't support my G700 mouse). No problems at all with this (or many other driving games) in the past 2 years.
I did test already in 1.45, all good there too.

The old FFB plugin, (if previously installed), will cause issues, if you don't delete the files from your plugins folder.

What "plugins" are you talking about? There is no "plugins" folder in ATS/ETS or the Logitech Gaming Software... Does G-hub require "plugins" to translate FF for each game? If so, this is probably the Root Cause of the problems with G-hub vs LGS.

So I did a COMPLETE uninstall of LGS, appdata, programdata & regedit files & tried G-Hub. With G-Hub, I could at least control center spring force which lead me to think it had something to do with LGS.

I uninstalled G-Hub(as mentioned above) and reinstalled LGS and now it seems to be working. As of right now, the return feedback while driving thru a parking lot feels jerky/chunky as if it kicks in every 5-10 degrees of turn.

Going to do some testing/tweaking, but at least it's working and I can steer again. Also, while looking for solutions, I came across a video that suggested going into settings/controls and moving a couple of the FFB sliders around, then going back into game.

Didn't work for me but it might be something others can try with a stiff wheel.

So I fire up the game today and guess what? Wheel is stiff as a board again. The only thing that changed during that time is LGS updated to 9.04.49 which immediately pointed me towards drivers.

Went into Device Manager and rolled back the 2 Logitech Drivers to 8.85.75.0 and BAM, all settings are back. Hope this helps someone.
