    I just installed from steam. Got everything working but no FFB on my OSW. Using windows 10, MMOS.

    I have it turned on in the settings.

    If anyone can help let me know what I am doing wrong.

    Thanks

    Unfortunately I don't know MMOS as I use the Simucube software and it works like a charm.
    Sounds a bit silly, but is your E-Stop released? :D

    Yep, using Simucube software also, and it works great.
    Heads up though, it is highly recommended to edited the configuration file to remove collision response of the wheel, otherwise you will break your hands, hence it is called:
    'FFB jolt magnitude'
    which should be set to 0.0.

    Here is is good video (currently I do not think I am using his settings, but probably similar):


    Simucube firmware and software is continuously updated, so I would recommend to use it instead of MMOS, though the documentation to update seems quite daunting:
    https://granitedevices.com/wiki/SimuCUBE_Firmware_User_Guide

    And also there are some basic settings in the Simucube configuration tool which may needs to be done to get the best feel in the game. Currently I do not have the settings in front of me, but I will put it up when I have it in front of me. :)

    my Lenze servo with Mmos is running fine.
    id should do from the start up with Mmos (even when the settings are to strong etc)

    These are my Simucube settings --------
    [​IMG] [​IMG]


    My R3E ingame settings are as follows:
    General force feedback settings:
    Force feedback: on
    Inverted force feedback: off
    Gamepad rumble: off
    Force feedback intensity: 60%
    Smoothing: 10%
    Force feedback spring: 0%
    Force feedback damper: 25%

    Steering force settings:
    Steering force intensity: 60%
    Force feedback minimum force: 0%
    Understeer: 50%
    Vertical force: 50%
    Lateral force: 50%
    Steering rack: 38%

    Force feedback effect settings:

    Slip effect: 65%
    Engine vibrations: 5%
    Kerb vibrations: 18%
    Shift effect: 25%
    Collision effect: 0%

    And the FFB tagged lines in the .rcs file, which is located here:
    C:\Users\username\Documents\my games\SimBin\RaceRoom Racing Experience\UserData\ControlSet
    Do not copy and paste, use only as reference.

    Hello friend, since the last update, the ffb of my OSW Augury flyer with MMOS 2014 does not work with Argon ... I had never had problems with Raceroom.
    I need help since I am playing 2 championships and now the 2 are in danger.
    Thanks, I need help, it detects me steering wheel but it only turns not ffb.
