I have no doubt whatsoever that the G25 works perfectly with the game. Pook's remarks were about the FFB. And that's always a bit of a grey area; much of it comes down to what you expect and more importantly what you're used to. Being a serious simracer, pook is used to accurately simulated FFB, not canned FFB effects. I seriously doubt RnR actually simulates the forces acting on the wheels of the truck. I don't have the game anymore (got rid of the Russian version) but I'm guessing like 99% of the games out there it probably uses canned effects triggered by certain actions or driving inputs to make you feel stuff. To a novice this will feel pretty good. To an experienced simracer it will feel awful. I guess you could say here that ignorance is, in fact, bliss

@Obsolum,

I guess you'll have to give me an example of what you feel with the FFB. I don't play racing games, but I do play FlightSimX. I know what I'm suppose to feel in that game using the the joystick.

I can only logically assume that the feedback you guys are describing on the steering wheel refers to wheel tension, vibrations, and the jolt you would get going over bumps, curves, etc. If this is correct, then as I previously stated I CAN feel all of these. You don't need to be a computer wizard to know how a car, truck, or motorcycle feels when you drive, or ride them. My steering wheel reacts as if I'm driving a real truck. You don't need to play a racing game to experience this. So, what is everyone talking about. Or am I just simply misunderstanding this whole wheel FFB thing??

Alright, if you feel all those things and they feel right to you then great! Like I said, I never played the game with the G25 so I have no idea how the FFB is. I was only guessing based on pook's remarks.

OK, as long as we're all on the same page now. I have stressed before that I felt all those things once my brother configured it. You guys kept talking about having a racing game to know what you mean. When all you have to be is a driver to know how a vehicle feels, and operates. All kidding aside.

i think pepole need to understand that human error will result in bad FFB as if you stick to the road and use gentle steering with any wheel you will be rewarded for the efforts and i speak from personal experience but i will say that the logitech g25 will work with without tweaking but it comes down your own choice

Why would the Mods give you a problem? Post it. I'm quite sure it would be appreciated by all concerned, especially me. I would love to see your configuration, and compare it to mine. This would be great

PS:
I would advise you to put it in the "Technical Problems & Solutions" Thread. In that area there is another Thread called "Logictech G25". That's a good spot for it, or the Thread called "Controller/Wheel Issues".
