T300 Losing FFB after the new patch (V1.12)…
Hi! I’m devastated because after a few laps I’m losing the FFB on the thrustmaster T300 RS GT wheel base… ☹️ Until now it was all okay from the launch of the game, but since this new patch (V1.12)...

Thanks a lot Iceman!
I have the forced cooling on always and it pretty much did the thing until this patch, never had an issue with losing the FFB.
Also I checked and I made my settings again as I played in the recent months. And after I started to play like that it perfectly works, I’m having the same feeling from the wheel than before, but after I while it got much lighter, it loses FFb.. ☹️
That does sound suspiciously like fade. Post a screen of your in-game settings.
Also which pedalset are you running and how connected (IIRC GT comes with T3PA and should be RJ-12 connected)?

Thanks for your fast answers!!🙏🏻
Now I can’t shoot a photo, because I’m not at home, but I write down for you my in-game wheel settings.
Usually I run like this, also sometime with the Wheel damper on ‘15’ only:
FFB strenght: 95
On track: 15
Rumble strip: 15
Off track: 15
Wheel damper: 100
Understeer enhance: OFF
Wheel rotation: 310
I’ve tried both ways and I’ve tried lowering the FFB too, to 75 but it always fade away..
The annoying thing is that until now I had zero problem and I used the 95 FFB + 100 Wheel damper. 😩
P.S.
I discovered a new setting for Logitech owners (the True Force setting) and I thought of it maybe that causes the problem. So I lowered it to zero but nothing changed either.🤷🏼

Thats way too high. Do you have it set in TM software as default 75% i run around 55 to 65 percent, more than enough since F1 has power steering. Damper on zero

I agree it's too high, but remember @Kihsotap is on PS5, I think you just get the in-game setting. 75% of 75% is about 56% FFB overall strength, so I would start at 60% and work up if it doesn't fade. Only go 5% at a time but test for a full session (if you play two or three hours, test for 2-3 hours). 75% would be a maximum. I'm not discounting that @Kihsotap has tried 75% either if he says he has. Ultimately, the T300 is a finesse product, usable FFB if not realistic. It simply doesn't have the oomph to give "real world" FFB levels.
Glad to see it's being used as fan ON. Sometimes, extra holes in the case helps. A little tidy drilling or a better CFM rated fan is also helpful (check YT). Good luck!
Additionally, I would leave the Logitech setting at the default if it shows up (it does, even though I have a Fanatec). It should be placebo, but I would not alter it. Set default values then set only what you need to change.
I just ran your settings, even my modfied t300 with extra cooling fans can’t cool down fast enough on 95 FFB and i Have the extra cooling fan with a 3d printed funnel blowing straight on the motor so I know what I’m talking about😉
yes my t300 is not standard but it doen’t fade

Hmm.. very interesting.
Yeah it is like that it is on the default in the software.
I tested a lot before I sticked with this setup and I was the fastest with this combination. And of course I didn’t raise more because I wanted to avoid the clipping issue.
But how is it possible that I didn’t have this fading issue for the last 2 months and now it came suddenly?
