I just realized that whats happening is when its "hard" its the same as when the FF light is off, so in other words no FF. But the ff still works, like when you hit stuff, but the wheel is still stiff to turn like when the ff light is off. I can hit escape and the wheel is easy to turn again, and when i go back to the game its hard, but has little "spots" where it turns easy. WHat the heck?????

k, its a few years later LOL

Im bringing these wheels out again,

like before (and this is a fesh install of windows xp and fresh install of newest lfs..

When in MENUS, like the logitech profiler, or LFS menus, the wheel turns effortlessly. Like you can flick the wheel with your finger and it moves.

ok, now when i get in the game, the wheel is HARD to turn. The force feedback works how its supposed to, as in bumps etc, but its just hard to turn, it should be EASY to turn in the game, no??

Even with the FF to 1% it gets hard. YOu cant feel the effects, but the hard to turn is there.

ANy ideas guys? someone has had to run into this before....

its got to be some kind of setting or something, because it turns easy in the menus.

well, i have a laptop and i did it on there too, but i guess this next weekend ill try it at my parent's house to rule that out COMPLETLY.

omg, ok, i was using it and it was real stiff, well, stiffer than it should, it felt like the car had no power steering you know/ Well for some dumb reason i unplugged it and plugged it back in AND ITS DOING IT AGAIN. You unplug the power and its all smooth, then i plug the power in and its fine till it gets to the center mark and it jerks free for a second then stiff again. And help please? I dont want a 100 piece of placstic laying around.

well just to let everyone know, ive been super busy and havent played the game in months, well, i called logitech and told them the problem and without any questions they sent me a new one and i dont even have to return the old one. They have great customer service. Im gonna start playing again

Thanks for the help guys. Ill let ya know what they say.

I bought it 3 days ago, so i guess i should just go to best buy? Or should or talk to logitech?

Well shit. I plugged it into my laptop and the same thing. This stupid thing is only 3 days old.

I tried that, it gets easy to turn (like normal) when i turn the ff off then turn it back on and it feels like the tires are buried in mud or somthing.

Ok im not sure what happened, I got a new momo wheel and i played one day and all is cool, the next i come out of pits and drive for a second, then go grab somthing to eat and come back and the ff is really weird. When im just standing still the wheel will be hard to turn and it will have "easy" spikes. IT will also do other weird stuff like turn when it shouldn't really....soimthings out of wack. I really dont think its the wheel because when off the game and in the menues the force feedback feels smooth and good. Im thinkking of just reinstalling lfs and seeing if that works. I never changed any of the settings from when it worked fine and i went and looked at them all and changed them just to make sure. Also the game and computer has been restarted many times and nothing.

Help please!

nice, you got that down pretty good.

No, i wish, its just an 89 blazer, but i built a 355 v8 and put in it so it gets the job done

Not a whole lot of people know about those typhoons tho

HI!

Ive played lfs on and off in spurts for the past 3 years or so, and just recently bought the full version.

Ive always just messed around with lfs tweak but im gonna sit back and get the courses down and actually pratice on finishing races and improving time so i can hit up online play!


Love the game, its nice playing a realistic game that doesnt have nawwzz as its main draw and a blurry map for added effects when you go fast. :rolleyes:

some helpfull criticism. I think the sound of the backfire is the problem.. Right now it sounds like a little firecracker....backfires usually have a low pitched "BLOP" noise, not a high pitched "snap".....

Also, you have it to when you shift, but it should be after a few seconds after you let off the gas since after WOT fuel injection engines cant switch a/f fast enough and they go extremly rich and after a couple seconds the raw fuel in the pipes meet oxygen and explodes....just seems like the timing would be alot better if you could have them come off after you let off after a couple seconds....That would also solve the problem that people seem to complain about it poping too much.

Also, is there anyway to make it "gurgle" when you let off? Like, that cutting out sound when you damage the engine in lfs, if that sound or similar sound could come on when you let off would be nice!


Not complaining or b*tching, just throwing out some ideas, I like what your doing, it just doesnt seem right to let off and have it sounding all smooth when in real life it would be gurgling poping and carrying on

Chad.

AWSOME! I bought S2 just in time!!

Quote from tristancliffe :

Did he rewire the catalyst temperature sensor, or is the ECU under the impression it's not warming up, and over/under fueling to try and compensate? But no car made in the last 10 years should backfire as it would automatically mean it would fail emissions tests and wreck economy.

You take the restrictive sound deadening exhaust off, and you'll hear it everytime you go from wot to 0 throttle on any vehical bud. Its not possible to go to 14.7 A/F when you let off.
