Not yet.
But there currently/temporarily (hopefully) is a [previous-moddev] Beta available, with the old DevMode, where the FFB worked as it always did.
 
what kind of FFB problem ?
There seem to be different Problems for different Users.
In my Case (Logitech G920), in the default Build, i have to lower the FFB Multiplier to 0.03, to get an almost same Feeling that i did have with the Setting 1.0 in the Past.
With 1.0 it is much too strong and not drivable.

Have you checked if your wheel´s nM in the json file is correct?

"Steering torque capability":2.5,
"Steering torque capability#":"The maximum torque capability of the wheel (in Nm, obviously)",

That is the same as it always was, i've never changed that.
As said, there seem to be different Problems, where e.g. other Users have no FFB at all anymore, if i remember it right.
When a User doesn't change anything and something doesn't work anymore, i would say that a Bug did appear in such Cases. :)
And S397 is aware of it, so we've gotten the [previous-moddev] Beta.
 
finally updated. The Game refuses to launch, it does get to the RF2 logo then black screen and CTD without any error message or whatever.
I need to check again where are launch logs and stuff to post here on the forum, if someone can remind me
 
Anyone know whats happening here? was working fine before the update.


There are no advanced launch options setup
Steam warns me that the game tried to insert some at launch time ,
+path=.. +workshopsync
and each time I click continue it just adds another set
+path=.. +workshopsync +path=.. +workshopsync
View attachment upload_2024-8-31_7-21-35.png

and ultimately fails and cannot be launched.

"if it aint broke.. dont fix it" how can i revert to working copy?
(already did a steam file verify, no difference)

This always happens when the game fails to run from steam, it launches again with the same/repeated parameters (those parameters are normal).

Something about the update might have caused an issue, but it's not an issue with the updated version - hope that makes sense.

If you search for that error message on here you'll find heaps.
