Cal and Skoo are hard at work and making great progress. My question to you is, would you rather they spend their time making it work or spend their time here posting to us? They're in the middle of figuring out all the FFB commands. Cal has referred to this as "grunt work" and it just takes time ...

So, how can we get the final touch done and make the FFB work? We've never been this far! ^^

Do you mean that driving with an actual joystick is not playable or did you somehow used the actual Wheel with the adapter but displayed as a joystick in the game's settings? If latter, how "unplayable"? A calibration or pedal reading interpretation issues or something else? Some driving games (and ...

The Sidewinder steering wheel from Microsoft with FFB (USB) has arrived and I used this program to dump the USB descriptor. It seems a little bit short to me however, is this enough or do I need to do something else?

joystick.hex with wheel support (no FF) and patch for adapt-ffb-joy sources in attached zip. Wheel is shown as "LUFA Wheel wFFB" when connected. There is hat, x/y/z-rotation, wrong number of buttons etc shown with joy.cpl as left overs from joystick descriptors. USB descriptors for wheel need some ...

I have Sidewinder Force Feedback Wheel working with adapt-ffb-joy without FF, brake is set to throttle axis and gas as y-axis. FF is not released when the wheel is detected by adapt-ffb-joy (have to disable it with force button), so FF initialization is not working; probably something wrong with ...

As for the Wheel USB descriptor, you might actually be fine by using the existing joystick descriptor because at least all the games I know (e.g. FlatOut, Dirt and Trackmania) that supports wheels will also support an analog force feedback joystick. So, the game would see the wheel as a regular ...

That's exactly why I made the post. I guess that is a start. I attached my steering wheel to the board I made for the joystick, didn't work that way :D Windows doesn't recognize it, not even the LUFA one. So I guess that means the teensy doesn't get the right reply from the device, in this case the ...

Thanks Grendel, would be great! I found another topic about it but I guess it isn't very useful. Still posting it though:

So, to get the ball rolling, I started to do some research about how to get this thing working for the Steering Wheel as it doesn't seem to be that hard to adapt it (we got the basics right?) First of all, the current HID is for a joystick, not a steering wheel. So to get started, a HID for a ...

Seems like you have the legs of this capacitor connected (shorted) to each other, and nothing connected to the other side. From the diagram on the google code page, it looks like you're supposed to connect the ground to both of the caps on one side , then connect the other side of one to the teensy ...

In the attachments I added the board and the scheme I made.
I also added some pictures of the board itself.

This is a prototype I made, not a final product.

If you find some mistake, let me know!

Thanks already!

Thanks for the reaction!

When I use the force program, if I click on an option to test its functionality, the led blinks for a sec but than stops and no FFB is occurring...
I guess this is not right? Any possibilities of wrong configuration? Shall I upload my schematics and some pictures of my PCB?

Hello everybody! I recently found my old Sidewinder and as I am getting annoyed by my new joystick with ffb, I came across the adapt-joy-ffb topic. So, I ordered 2 teensy´s and got to work. When using my breadboard, everytime I connect the sidewinder with my windows 8 x64, it shows up as a LUFA ...
