So, as I'm interested in buying rF2 I downloaded the demo version and thought I'd try and see how it runs on my computer but I ran into this problem of having my FFB reversed. So, how do I fix it? I could not find any solution in demo's options. Thanks in advance.
Go to: rfactorfolder\UserData\Player in there is a "Controller.JSON" Open with notepad. "Force Feedback":{ "Steering effects strength":10000, <--------- turn this into negative value.
It is set to -10000 to begin with and I can't change it for some reason. I can, actually, remove that minus mark and save the file but when I start the game demo, it changes it back to -10000. I don't know why.
Go to Options and then Controls. Either click 'Detect' (not sure if I did that myself) or as I think I did for my Thrustmaster T500 select 'Load' select your wheel from the list, assign whatever buttons etc you want and then save it preferably with a new name, eg H pattern, paddles, what ever you want.
Yes, I have tried that. I have created a controller profile and I can change values in that file but I think that controller.json file in \player folder overrides that controller file I created the way you suggest.
Maybe try editing your file from UserData/Controller I was sure that selecting the profile that came with the game made the FFB behave correctly. Old age and memory often clash. What wheel do you have?
Sounds like rF2 (and yourself) hevn´t full access to Write files. You should add admin-rights to complete folder (HDD)
Yes, that was what I was explaining. The controller profiles are there, I have created one for my wheel and it does not change this problem. Thrustmaster T100
So you can make changes and save and after that it´s like before?? There´s only ONE explanation: it´s not saved!
Yes, it is. I change the file, then close it (notepad). When I open the file again, it is as I saved it. So it is the game(demo) that changes the file back for some reason.
That's what I think .. demo files are protected ... .. ask Tim W if the Demos files are read only and fixed .. But I'd bet they are ..... doesn't rf2 have a return policy? I'd Just Buy it !
