Description

The force feedback works great for big heavy trucks, but for light vehicles, like cars, almost nothing is felt except for in violent collisions, even at maximum 400% strength. I'm using a Fanatec 911 Turbo S wheel, but this applies to any force feedback wheel.

I can confirm this too, I'm using a G25.

For now, you can just edit your RoR.cfg's Force Feedback Stress to be higher than what the Configurator lets you. I find 1200-1600 to be a good value range for light cars (but don't drive a big truck with those settings or it'll break your arms)

I think a perfect solution for this would be to just scale force feedback based on the weight of the vehicle (lighter vehicles = stronger force feedback)
