Absolute zero FFB with T500RS
Steering and other axis work fine but no FFB on any strength and damping.
+ can't set 1-6 gears with TH8 shifter - only reverse gear can be set

This is the same wheel I use. hmmmmmm :/ Lets see what we can do. None of my beta testers with T500 reported this.

- Did the game install DirectX at start? Right before launch?
also you can try this DirectX version as well. If you play other popular sims you should already have this but it wouldnt hurt to try. ;)

- Are the wheels turning in the garage?
- Did you calibrate the wheel in the ingame options menu? (im sure you did if the wheels are steering)

Things to try:
First restart computer one time. Then launch game and make sure you are launching with the FFB Version. Next Make sure to set the steering mapping in the launch menu by double clicking -STEERING- and then moving the wheel. Then, when in garage, open options tab and check the axis on the live menus on the left to see if it is "working and moving".

Other notes:
- The game will only connect to the first FFB controller connected to a computer. If you have 2 FFB units plugged in it will default to the first one.
- If you run the game in windowed mode make sure to use the in game stop button and not just click the X in on the Windows frame. The game needs to be "shut down" in order to disconnect the FFB from DirectX.

Let me know if this helps ya.

- nope - no dx- it didn't but I play iracing, assetto corsa and pcars
- yes, the wheel is working, i can drive, axes move on the screen in options - just no FFB
- yes, I use 1080
- I have x360 connected, can it be it? will try and come back
- no window mode.

Yeah.... DirectX is already installed then.

Ok...

If the XBOX 360 remote is on a port that gets recognized "before" the wheel... the FFB will not connect. Just try it with the wheel only connected once. That should be it.

Strange, same problem for me. I tried everything you said but still no FFB here. No other devices connected, only the T500 and the TH8 shifter. Sry for bringing up such an old post, since it was a far earlier version back then^^

I will look into this ASAP. I use a T500 myself. BUT.... I just moved into a new office in another part of my house and my driving "rig" is not setup right now. (i have my priorities all messed up right now. lol)

Ill report back as soon as I test my wheel myself.

No worries, take your time. You're doing a great job keeping in touch with the community ;-) It's still fun thrashing around the tracks with a throphy truck or crawling
