Hardly any FFB with Thrustmaster TX ? - Read This !

[Icaru5]

OK, so I downloaded the digital copy yesterday, calibrated my wheel and was ready to go.

WTF I thought, where's the force feedback ? - tried everything, all different cars, FFB was already on 100%, spent ages adjusting all the settings. Still hardly any FFB, then I discovered something ...

When you calibrate the wheel, the second stage tells you to HOLD the wheel at 90 degrees and then press A. If you just position it at 90 degrees without holding it and then push A, the wheel will violently centre itself, and then you will have almost no force feedback. You Must HOLD the wheel whilst you press A and keep hold until you feel the wheel reduce its force within your grasp. (Edit: You must keep hold and only release after you've pressed A a second time to Save.) Brace yourself though 'cos as soon as you push A, it wants to spin !

Hope this helps, 'cos I just knew there had to be something !

Now go enjoy !!!

Don't turn it 90 degrees but rather turn it to where it will say 900 degrees.

What if I have the DSD adaptor on my TX base and a OMP wheel with no buttons - could I calibrate by pushing A on the controller next to me??

Yep, completely agree.

I thought it worth posting, because although it does say HOLD the wheel, it's just didn't seem like the right thing to do !

After reading a few posts from others who had the same issue (ie. No FFB), I just thought it might help someone !.

I'm not a big fan of rotating it 900 degrees to get full lock though, which in essence what this means. Will try the FFB fix later.

The main thing is, just keep the wheel held whilst pressing A and keep it held for a few seconds, otherwise, you'll have no FFB !

Thanks guys, was struggling with this, worked perfectly. Have actually had to turn tyre feedback down a bit now

Wow I just spent like an hour playing around with FFB settings and now that I've done this the difference is huge. I was looking at the HUD before and I wasn't getting any of the white line at all, which is the rumble. I couldn't feel the rumble strips at all.

I can confirm that this helps alot! Now it's so strong I had to put the FB from 100 to 60.

It feels AMAZING! Sooo much better than Forza!

I can confirm that this works 100% and fixes the FFB issues.
