Compatibility Report

  • Name of the game with compatibility issues: BeamNG.drive
  • Steam AppID of the game: 284160

System Information

I confirm:

  • [x] that I haven't found an existing compatibility report for this game.
  • [x] that I have checked whether there are updates for my system available.

Symptoms

I boot up BeamNG and I use a Logitech G923 XBOX Version to try and drive in the game. The game runs fine but the wheel itself is having terrible issues with regards to force feedback. Other games like ETS2 or Assetto Corsa run fine but the force feedback in BeamNG does not respond the way it should at all. I tried changing the settings in the Force Feedback tab, set update type to 'Full (slow fallback)', it made the behavior a bit more responsive but just a tiny bit and the wheel still went as crazy as usual. Tried using the ffbwrap command to see if it fixes anything but the issue still persists. Can't upload the Proton Log since it's pretty big.

Reproduction

  1. Launch BeamNG
  2. Enable force feedback in the Options tab
  3. Load up a map
  4. Try to drive with the wheel but it keeps going left and right without me even touching the wheel. When it respawns, the wheel just goes crazy on its own.

Hello @narcester, we're using one issue report per unofficially supported game title, so I've gone ahead and transferred this issue report to https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/1237#issuecomment-2640133952.
