    I'm looking to upgrade my DD wheel to something that works with FFB on the Native Linux BeamNG binary.
    My two previous setups (Logitech G PRO xbox edition, Cammus C5) works fine in Proton with udev and hwdb tweaks, but not FFB in Linux port.

    If you have managed to get FFB working on your setup please share type of wheel/hw and confg/tweaks if any to make this work.


    One of the issues is that some wheels are recognized as a thumb controller and not a steering wheel. Wheels with a lot of inputs/buttons seems to more likely be detected as controller via SDL than others.

    Ping. Am I the only one in the world running the Native binary with a FFB wheel ? (which does not work :) )
    Moza R3/5 is of interest, so If anyone have tried this please let the world know if FFB works.
    Or even better: Devs: fix game/SDL to correctly identify more wheels

    Got hold of a cheap Moza R3, and it works perfectly with the Native Binary. Fully configurable from Linux with Boxflat
    The FFB strength is only 5Nm, but adequate. Never ran my G Pro more than 6-7 anyways, perfect self-steer in drifts and superb resolution.
    Chances are high that R5,9,12 works as well.
