Frequently Asked Questions

(FR)

  1. Réinstallation de vJoy, plus de FFB : si vous avez réinstallé vJoy, alors vous devez refaire la configuration de vJoy via vJoy Configure : reset, puis remettre la config, puis Apply.
  2. FFBPlugin de Boomslangnz : cochez (activez) le mode Alternative FFB. Si vous avez un gimx, alors laissez décoché.
  3. Mon volant oscille de gauche à droite dans certains jeux (Daytona 1 et 2) : baissez le Global Gain et ajoutez une petite deadband (zone morte) de 0.05.
  4. J'ai mis le bazar dans BackForceFeeder, comment réinitialiser la config ? Allez dans %USERPROFILE%\Documents\BackForceFeeder et supprimez les fichiers xml
  5. Parfois il y a un gros ralentissement et un décalage dans la position du volant et les effets : votre PC est peut être à bout (CPU à 100%) et le décodage des trames entre le PC et l'arduino a pris du retard. Soit vous baissez la qualité du jeu, soit vous devez changer de config PC.

  1. After I reinstalled vJoy, I do not have FFB anymore: if you needed to reinstall vJoy, you need to reconfigure it using the vJoy Configure tool: perform a reset, then set your config, finally apply it.
  2. FFBPlugin from Boomslangnz: select the Alternative FFB mode. If you have a GIMX adapter, then you can leave Alternative mode unchecked.
  3. My wheel oscillate from left to right in some games (Daytona 1 and 2): lower the Global Gain and add a small deadband of 0.05
  4. I have completly messed up my configuration in BackForceFeeder, how do I reset it ? Go to %USERPROFILE%\Documents\BackForceFeeder and delete all xml files
  5. I sometime have the feeling that there is a huge slowdown and a delay between my wheel angle and the effects: your computer might be too much overloaded (100% CPU) and the decoding of the frames between the PC and the Arduino gateway got some delay. Either you need to lower the game quality, or upgrade your PC.
  6. Some options in the hardware configuration are greyed out, why ? This is because the manager is running (green) and you must first stop it but clicking on the status button. Conversely, some options are greyed out when the manager is stopped.

Per emulator hints:

Enable force feedback

Changing vJoy to be seen as a wheel and not a gamepad:

Key stroke

  • Use DirectInput as the preferred API and check that your game or emulator does capture these keystroke.
  • For MAME, in the configuration specify to use keyboardprovider = dinput (or -keyboardprovider=dinput in the command line)

Lamps Output

  • For MAME: activate either Windows output system (command line argument : -output windows) or TCP network output system on port 8000 (command line argument : -output network)

  • Nebula Model2 and Teknoparrot: use OutputBlaster Plugin from Boomslangnz https://github.com/Boomslangnz/OutputBlaster then use either MAME output system or network output system.

  • For Daytona (Saturn Adds) on model 2 you must use SailorSat's lua script to enable outputs. Thanks to her amazing work.

  • For supermodel (model 3), use -wide-screen -no-throttle -show-fps -input-system=dinput -outputs=win

Per game help/hints:

  • MAME Virtua Racing: to get FFB, set upright cabinet in service menu. See http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=145454.0

  • Crazy Taxi 3 PC and other PC racing games do not recognize my vJoy as a FFB steering wheel: change registry settings of vJoy to be a wheel instead of a joystick (see above)

  • MAME Outrun: set top upright

Game assets:

I have placed in gameassets/ some scripts or useful files for model2/model3 emulator. Most are not made by me but gleaned over the internet. Please consider to give credits to the respective authors.
