WingMan Formula Force Settings, Old Red ONe
I dug out my old Red Logitech Wingman Formula Force and trying to find some
settings that will work with it for rFactor, can't seem to get any centering spring, and the forces are a little week. I use to love this great and still the smoothest wheel I have ever had. |

Are you using Windows 2000/XP? Mine had major force feedback problems (including a big performance hit) when I upgraded to WinXP from Win98 - especially in ISI games that use fairly sophisticated FF. Logitech are aware of it but they say that they don't support that old wheel under 2K/XP. |

So I'm not sure whether I'm missing something or whether there really isn't any big deal about using the old wheel with XP in ISI games. There is a version of Profiler specifically for the old wheel and XP, but I forget the version number off-hand. You can probably find it at WingmanTeam.com. Do you have the Controller set to WHEEL, FF set to FULL, and the Strength turned up in the game options? If I max out the strength setting, I can barely turn the wheel, it's so strong. I think I've got it turned down to about 60% -- but I'd have to check to be sure. HTH, -- Darryl |

Everything you need to get the older LWF & LWFF wheels working in XP, including separate pedal axes, is at: http://www.wingmanteam.com/files/releases/4.50/. Grazie to Tom at Logitech! SB |

well dang, removed and installed the 4.50's and patch, still feels the same,
just very, very little in the game, in the control panel the effects feel very strong, but not centering force. Maybe my old wheel is just played out. Have 2 of them and the other one just turns all the way to the left and won't center itself..

Does enabling FF still cause a big frame rate hit with the LWFF under XP in
ISI games? I remember pleading for them to fix it from the time when F1 2002 through until GTR came out and they basically said it was never going to happen. Anyhow, I'm amazed that people still have LWFFs in working condition. Mine wore out ages ago and I'm only an occasional racer. |

I usually run in three or four races a week and a few additional hours of practice. When I started using the wheel so much, I thought: "I'd better order Jens Shumi's bearing kit.", but, of course, I never got around to it. I do have a printed version of hiw old webpage with all the disassembly instructions though. I even bought a second -- backup -- wheel. It's still sitting in the back of the closet. I've only used it enough to know that it works. To make this even more outstanding, both wheel were originally purchased by me as "reconditioned", so they weren't even brand new. Does it affect FPS? I don't know. I've never hooked up another wheel to compare. I do get what I consider to be respectable frame rates for the hardware I'm running, so if I *am* loosing some FPS, it isn't drastic. Obviously, I've been lucky in the durability of my wheel. Perhaps I've been lucky with the framerate thing too. -- Darryl |
