BTW NFSSE (the first game) have good force feedback? Any info you can provide from iforce1 games would be valuable. Yesterday I tried running NFSSE and Descent2 on my win10 pc with no luck. I will need to get an old pc for this. Sadly I can't get NFS1SE to start on my 98SE test rig, under any …

Creating this topic as a means to discuss old FFB api. I want to create a wrapper for the IFORCE and IFORCE2 api and make it compatible with newer DINPUT devices. But I don't have any iforce compatible device and I've never seen one. I want to start with NFS:SE. And as a bonus, NFS2:SE. This one is …

Hello everybody. I clearly remember using, in 1997, the American Anko AVB Force Feedback Racing Wheel (GC-FBW1) in that game and the force feedback worked perfectly on Windows 95 . No I remember if I used the Serial or USB input (I think it was Serial). PC Pentium 233 mmx , Voodoo 1 , 32M RAM. I …

... cant wait to try out the sidewinder and see what all the nfs ffb fuss is about now, don't get your expectations up, TOO much :P It is fun (definitely not saying that it's not), especially since NFS2 is so iconic, and FFB with it is an extremely rare experience! But it's pretty early FFB, and …

That is very cool to know! Sadly I only have the "WingMan Gamepad Extreme [G-ZA-PHI]" and the "WingMan Action Pad [G-UB3A]". And none of them have vibration. Will try with an original Xbox controller that i have, and maybe try to install it as a Logitech. And see how that goes 😜

There was a similar problem here: https://www.vcfed.org/forum/forum/genres/pentium-first-generation/45571-matrox-millenium-g450-which-win98se-driver that remained unresolved. Maybe it is actually a resource / IRQ conflict of some sort... Seeing how this revision of cards is a fair bit newer, and …
