Logi Momo Beta Driver

Hi guys I bought a Momo today and I need a little help. I've installed the 4.11 drivers but when i try and do the momo update it says , "Update failed". Any ideas why that is happening? I'm going to try and do it manually. I know where to put LHidLo.sys and WmJoyFrc.dll but where does WmHidLo.sys go? Does anyone know if MomoUpdate.exe changes the registry? Gerry

Not sure if it's the same error, but I had something similar happen. Found it was caused by me not setting the "Use Folder Names" to on when I extracted with Winzip. "Gerry Aitken" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Thanks Les, that was the problem. FF is STILL bad in GPL though :(. Loads of oscillations around the centre position, making driving straight very difficult. Any ideas? Cheers Gerry

Hi Gerry, I think I can help with the oscillations. I'd first try to decrease the latency setting in core. ini. If I remember this correctly, the actual effect of this setting is that GPL tries to 'think ahead' in order to make up for higher latencies, i.e. it sends FF commands before they're actually needed, and the higher the lat setting, the more in advance the command is issued. Higher settings of this parameter can cause oscillations. You might also increase the damping value in core.ini or the dampening slider in the wheel's controller setup window. Good luck!

I'm getting pretty good results with the MOMO wheel so far, but I'm sure I'll tweak it further before I am totally happy. I got the wheel only yesterday and after getting the 4.11 software and the beta patch I'm using a modified version of my old LWFF settings.. Game controllers.. Overall Effects Strength 100% Spring Effect Strength 0% Damper Effect Strength 0% in core.ini force_feedback_damping = 3.50000 force_feedback_latency = 0.010000 max_steering_torque = 210.000000 HTH Lol SpeedFreek

Hi Speed I've given your setting a try but the oscillations are still there. It's fine while turning, the FF is nice, smooth and believable. However, when I try to drive in a straight line the violent oscillations makes it undrivable. Also, when I stop the car the Momo pulls to the left, even though the cars road wheels aren't moving. DO you get that? Cheers Gerry

Gerry, over at the Wingman forums ( http://www.wingmanteam.com/discus/messages/3/3.html?1004989259 ) folks have reccomended that the deadzone be set off of "0", to say 1%, to avoid the oscillations you're describing. HTH, Ed

I was getting that (and still do) if the force strength is much above 100% - however with 100% and very similar core.ini settings to Lol's it feels fine, much like my old red wheel Tim Gerry Aitken <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

(which is more than enough btw). FYI I use the core.ini settings mentioned in the betadrivers readme file, in windows force to 100, the second bar to 0% and the third bar, damping, to 20%. No oscilliations or spikes in GPL. Andre

No oscilliations or spikes in GPL. Cheers Andre, I've just tried your settings :0). WHAT A GREAT WHEEL! Gerry

I have the problem with momo, when i turn my wheel straight my car turn a left, i have calibrated and installed new beta drivers, any help???? -Jani- "Gerry Aitken" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > > > Tim Leighton wrote: > > > I was getting that (and still do) if the force strength is much above100% - > > however with 100% and very similar core.ini settings to Lol's it feelsfine, > > much like my old red wheel > > Tim > > Thanks Tim, that worked for me too. :) > > Gerry
