TMX Xbox Series X loses FFB in Race

Hi,

A have a thrustmaster TMX and TLCM pedal connected in tmx via RJ.

at a random moment in the middle of the race my ffb stops working. the pedals continue to function normally. to return the ffb it is necessary to pause the game, open the Xbox menu and return to the race. This did not occur on f1 2020. started to occur in f1 2021 and migrated to f1 2022, it doesn't happen in any other racing games. my I feel very angry when this happens, especially in online races. My firmware is updated to version 17. Anyone else go through this?

f1 22

    Yes the TMX cuts out randomly for the last 2 years. It's been acknowledged by codemasters this year and last year but never fixed. They try to put blame on thrustmaster but even with the latest updates on the wheels the FFB still cuts out.

    Just another game breaking glitch that they arent clever enough to be able to fix. Please give up on EGO 4. It's not fit for purpose. Move on. Get a new game engine developed. Stop releasing reskinned F1 2015 year after year.

    I am not a Techie, but I have had a similar problem, with my Thrustmaster TMX force feedback.  My steering wheel used to completely cut out, I would have to completely restart the wheel sometimes even restart the computer.  It would sometimes be a half hour till I could drive again.  I think what happened with my problem is the Thrustmaster TMX force feedback overheated.  I turned down my Gain settings in the Master Game Settings to 75% (see attached pic). I haven't had a problem since.  Might be worth a try?

    thanks for your tip friend, the Xbox doesn't have this configuration that you sent me, but in the settings within the game, I've already played with only 40 on FFB and even so the problem occurs, and only in race. if I do 30 laps in the TT the problem does not occur, if I run a track of 30 laps, at some point I will lose the FFB. Unfortunately it's something in this crap game. in f1 2020 I played with ffb 150 without any problem. this started on f1 2021 has dragged on to f1 2022 and deep down it seems nobody cares.

    There’s currently a issues with Xbox connected to all wheels.  Unsure if it a xbox issue or F1 22 issue. As some are also having similar issue when they play Forza5. If it’s a game issue unfortunately being weekend there won’t be a fix until Monday at the earliest

    Hey man 

    I have the same issue here too, I find that if I disconnect the use from my Xbox before every race on F1 22 it’s totally fine for a full length race.

    if I forget and go into another race the FFB will fade. So I do the above every time I finish, hoping this helps in the meantime.
