VDrift is using SDL2 haptics functionality to implement force feedback. Start up VDrift. The console will print whether or not force feedback initialization succeeded. Start a practice game. You should feel a force effect on your steering wheel based on the aligning moment force from the front tires. Force feedback requirements on Linux (obsolete) ----------------------------------------------- - a steering wheel supporting constant force effects (like a Logitech Momo Racing force feedback steering wheel) - HID\_FF is enabled in your kernel - your device's USB ID is in **kernel-source/drivers/usb/input/hid-ff.c** - the ff-utils test program ffcfstress works for you. Note the device name you use with this program (should be **/dev/input/eventX**). - write permission to **/dev/input/eventX** - VDrift SVN r1547 or later If you need to recompile your kernel to enable force feedback, you can have a look here [Enabling force feedback in kernel](Enabling_force_feedback_in_kernel.md)
