Wheel Jerk Starting With Version 2.0.0.34 #65

Open Yardl3y opened 6 months ago

Decided to update the FFB plugin for MAME to the latest version and noticed that my Logitech G29 wheel is jerking unexpectedly around turns. While testing Ace Driver: Victory Lap, the wheel will jerk without crashing into anything or going over any bumps on the road. Sometimes its a subtle jerk, sometimes its stronger.

I did some troubleshooting and noticed the issue started with version 2.0.0.34 of the FFB plugin. If I use version 2.0.0.33, the problem goes away, but any version from 2.0.0.34 forward has the issue.

Hey, I don’t really work on this project anymore. However looking at commit, it looks like it was maybe just some SDL issue that could be causing it

try use the SDL2.dll from 2.0.0.33 with latest version since you say that worked fine

Oh man that is a bummer! It's such a great plugin. Thanks for taking the time to reply. I tried your suggestion and it works! Does that mean that if I use SDL2.dll from 2.0.0.33 the plugin won't work with newer wheels like the Logitech G923?

Unsure to be honest, just depends what changes were made on SDL2 side

they may of fixed whatever issue you were having too with newer SDL2. You can download them online and try sometime perhaps

Just tried the latest SDL2 but it still has the same issue unfortunately. Thanks for your help with this.
