Every time I start a new race in F1 25—whether it's Grand Prix, Multiplayer, or Time Trial—Force Feedback does not work until I manually go into the control settings and reapply or change something. This happens consistently and makes it necessary to repeat this process before every single race.
Steps to Reproduce:
- Launch F1 25
- Start any race mode (e.g. Grand Prix, Multiplayer, or Time Trial)
- Begin the session without touching the settings
- Notice that Force Feedback is either completely off or feels wrong
- Go into the settings menu and adjust any control/FFB option or re-select your preset
- Return to the race—Force Feedback now functions correctly
Expected Behaviour:
Force Feedback should work automatically when starting any race, without needing to enter and adjust settings.
Actual Behaviour:
Force Feedback only activates properly after manually changing a control settings or reapplying the preset for each race session.
Hardware Setup:
- Logitech G923 with TrueForce
- Thrustmaster TLCM pedals connected via USB
- All devices connected via wired USB
- Using latest version of Logitech G Hub
What I've Tried:
- Verifying game files via Steam
- Updating Logitech G Hub
- Disabling TrueForce
- Reinstalling the game
- Issue persists in all race modes
Extra Notes:
This issue did not exist in F1 24. It seems the game does not properly initialize Force Feedback unless settings are manually refreshed. This adds unnecessary steps before each session and breaks immersion for wheel users.
