tasimm Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 (edited) I have zero experience in dissecting these logs, but the only difference I see is that when G Hub is uninstalled it fails the steering wheel centering test, loads the guidFFDriver and moves on. When it’s installed it looks like it finds what I’m assuming is the force feedback driver, (guidFFDriver), but doesn’t test the wheel. After that it seems to hang. I have no idea if this is normal behavior or if it should run the test after it finds the driver. Edited June 15, 2021 by tasimm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KathoriasTV Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 Experiencing this as well. I've got a Logitech G29 wheel and pedals. With the Logitech G Hub software installed, DCS doesn't start. Uninstall G Hub, and DCS starts with no issues. Reproducible every single time, with a fresh DCS install. This is not an acceptable long-term solution - uninstalling G Hub gets me reduced FFB functionality in racing sims. And no, I'm not going to crawl behind my desk and unplug things every time I want to play one thing or the other. I've refunded several games when they detected my HOTAS or pedals as a controller and freaked out.

I've refunded several games when they detected my HOTAS or pedals as a controller and freaked out. For what it’s worth, I used to have terrible trouble too with various games getting confused by my controllers. But my life got much better when I bought one of these https://www.amazon.com/Sabrent-4-Port-Individual-Switches-HB-UMLS/dp/B00BWF5U0M/ and use it to turn off and on my various controllers as needed. Much easier than unplugging and saves wear and tear on the ports. Edited June 20, 2021 by mbshaikh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbshaikh Posted June 20, 2021 Share Posted June 20, 2021 One other data point for troubleshooting this problem in case helpful. I have found that on my PC, if I do a clean boot without loading the G923 software (ie turn off loading on startup) DCS will run ok with the wheel connected. However, if I open the software DCS will not run, even if I try again after closing the software. It seems to me as if loading software configures the wheel or USB configuration in such a way that it no longer works with DCS, and only a reboot will clear it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flappie Posted June 20, 2021 Share Posted June 20, 2021 I'm reading here the G923 wheel uses sound as a Force Feedback input ("True Force"). Quote This system is based more on the audio than on the telemetry of the vehicle so it is slightly different. Can this sound input be disabled in G Hub without disabling FF completely? iRacing allows this (trueForceVibePhysics=1). Don't accept indie game testing requests from friends in Discord. Ever.

tasimm Posted June 20, 2021 Share Posted June 20, 2021 (edited) Telling the GHub S/W not to load at start up seems to be the answer for me until this gets fixed. This way I can still utilize the pedals as rudders and fire up GHub when I want to play AC. it’s an extra unnecessary step, but it will work for now. UPDATE: I discovered last night that as long as I have load at startup disabled on GHub, I can start the GHub s/w manually and DCS will still work.

mbshaikh Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 For whatever reason tasimm’s solution does not work on my end. If the Ghub software is running and my wheel is connected, DCS simply does not load. The only way I can get DCS running with the wheel still connected is to do a clean boot without loading Ghub on startup and without running Ghub at any time prior to loading DCS.
