RaceRoom
RaceRoom publishes the steering force it computes in its telemetry. With this on, the plugin reads that force and carries it to the wheel itself, with its effects on top, and your rev lights and the wheel’s screen stop interrupting it.
Two steps:
- In RaceRoom, disable force feedback. The intensity slider does not matter.
- On the FFB tab, tick Take over force feedback for RaceRoom. (What it does.)
Step 1 is also what frees the rev lights and the screen: with its force feedback off, RaceRoom stops driving the wheel’s lights.
Start SimHub before RaceRoom. If the lights or screen do nothing, that is the usual cause.
Getting the strength right
Drive a couple of clean laps. When the line under Car’s max on the FFB tab reads “Ready”, press Apply. Each car keeps its own number. Nudge Car’s max down for heavier, up for lighter.
From a wheel button: bind AutoForce, IRacingMaxForceUp and IRacingMaxForceDown in SimHub’s Controls tab. They keep their iRacing names but work here too.
A parked wheel
This route drops RaceRoom’s parking resistance, so the plugin adds its own: firm when parked, gone as you gain speed. Tune it under Stationary friction on the FFB tab, and tick Stationary spring there for a centering pull as well.
If the wheel pulls the wrong way
RaceRoom’s Invert FFB option flips the force the plugin reads. Keep it on. If the wheel pulls into corners instead of centering, that is the cause.
Going back
Untick the box and turn RaceRoom’s force feedback back on. RaceRoom returns to the USB capture, as before.
