    As of yesterday, when I hit the ffb multiplier + or - key while on track, it no longer shows me the new FFB multiplier value. I am not sure of it's working or not? is the change notification not showing but the values changing or is the value not changing at all?

    It was working fine as of Sat a few days back with no changes to anything.

    I can confirm that the FFB multiplier is still working through the keybinds, just that there is no longer (at least for me) confirmation of change onscreen ie. 1.5x/1.7x etc

    Do you still have the HUD enabled?
    At least Essentials only?

    I am running CrewChief/ OtterHUD since pre FFB update so native HUD is disabled. I do (and always had ) have the FFB live graph running permanently in a corner though and it did used to show when you made a FFB multiplier change on the fly which now it does not. Not fatal since I normally just keep adding 2 clicks of FFB multiplier until I see clipping then pull it back. Just concerned that I have a bug somewhere.

    Before the update the feeling of curbs on SC2 was very clear. Now it’s almost gone and haven’t been able to found settings for it. Why is that?

    Help needed, tried the sim on Steam free to play, ran a Saleen around the track, needs tuned in but felt fine, bought the full game, no ffb. All settings same, FFB 100% etc, as before. changed cars,tracks, private server, no feeling through wheel. No weight, rumble, nada. Back onto iRacing, no problem. Double check all Fanatec and in game, delete game fully and reinstall,same.
    Getting to tearing hair out time. Taking a breather, so I won't reply straight away, but any pointers gratefully received. Went through the settings with a top60 ranked player, doubt we missed summit, but at a loss now.
    Thanks in advance.

    Shut down irFFB and vJoy if you're running those with iRacing.

    They recommend 80% in game... I can imagine 100 resulting in to much clipping with the strength of the CSL DD. Have to test it tonight, finally got it!

    You have to adjust the FFB multiplier for the cars anyway in order to set the possible maximum force and to prevent clipping.

    They recommend 100%, the rest is up to the FFB multiplier

    Ok the first challenge is that RaceRoom is not recognizing the new CSL DD or my Pedals any longer... any quick fix?
