Well, I'm thankful for the patch in that I can now reach the "Load" button...........but, I still have no force feedback at all. Any of you guys get this to work on your machines? I've got an MS Sidewinder Pro Force Feedback , and I reinstalled the software that came with it as well as installing the new patch but no luck....am i doing something wrong? /m waiting to feel a powerslide
Mark, I guess we answered this one already! Iain

FF must be enabled in the joystick options tab. Greetings, BlueMax

Ive got the MS ffb and f1rs...what can I say but the forcefeedback is ever-so-slightly minimal. Occasionally get the odd wiggle. Rumble strips sometimes rumble, and grass might give a little left and right, but thats it... nothing like Ultimate Race...Mind you, I did once get a knock from driving into a wall flat out in f1rs (research purposes, obviously...) which most driving games ignore. Strange that, I thought you would normally notice such an occurance if you were in the car... I've got the performance update for the joystick installed, if you were wondering, and its running on a p200mmx, 3dfx, 96mg, etc. Come on ubisoft, give us the option for mental ffb... Pobster,
MDK is good! GPolice is also good. There are some pretty goods effects around, but I agree things will improve a lot in the next few months.

GPolice and MDK are very good...as is that FPS skiing game. If you've played the demo of Gpolice and where un-amazed by the FFB, try the real game - I found it about 2 billion times better. Makes it very good. Pobster, just agreeing with someone
