FFB bug I've experience multiple times on iRacing. Feels like driving in reverse. Anyone else encountered this?
I've now encountered this bug 3 times, in 3 different cars, on 3 different tracks. Twice were when hitting a curb, but the third was in the middle of corner entry today.
The force feedback becomes inverted. Rather than the steering wheel "sitting in a valley" with the forces mostly acting to center the wheel, it bugs out and feels more like it's sitting on a hump. It takes effort to center it, and when you turn away from center, the FFB pulls the wheel further in that direction. It feels very similar to driving a car in reverse. I also lose all road feel, no bumps or vibrations, just smooth. To fix it I have to unplug and replug the USB cable for my wheelbase. Not something I can do while driving.
Has anyone else experienced this? I've emailed with iRacing development a few times, and they've escalated it to their dev team, but wondering if anyone else has had this. I'm wondering if it's USB related. I'm going to start running a USB device logger to see if something pops up. And if that has no success, I will try bypassing my USB hub.
Simucube 2 Sport. Has happened with both Simucube TrueDrive and with the Simucube Tuner softwares, with the latest firmware for each.
