You'll need to download version 1.2.0.1 from here:

http://www.papy.com/gpl/download.html

To enable force feedback add the following to core.ini file which is found
in the gpl folder (the same one as the main executable).

[ Joy ]
allow_force_feedback = 1                ; Use FF if device has it
force_feedback_latency = 0.02        ; force feedback latency (secs)
force_feedback_damping = 5.0       ; force feedback damping coefficient
max_steering_torque = 250.000000        ; steering torque in N*in giving max
device force

At the other extreme, you could try Slot's settings of:

[ Joy ]
allow_force_feedback = 1                ; Use FF if device has it
force_feedback_latency = 0.02        ; force feedback latency (secs)
force_feedback_damping = 4000.0       ; force feedback damping coefficient
max_steering_torque = 2000.000000        ; steering torque in N*in giving
max device force

I use the first set with an LWFF.  Opinions differ on the best settings.
Fiddle around until you find one that suits.

Cheers

Phil
