    Hello,

    I haven't played Beamng in a long time so I started it today.

    Using Thrustmaster T500RS and the preset FFB configuration (tried all of them), the steering wheel turns left-right really fast when entering a map and remains so ALL the time. So at first it is about +-5 degrees, then progressively gets worse.
    All drivers are updated. Using Win10, and steam. No mods are used.

    I never opened the drivers window while playing. I also tried resetting the Thrustmaster wheel from the default settings (in the thrustmaster app) and it is the same. I also read the other solutions in the link and none apply to this situation.

    Tried to configure it like that, and even to fiddle with the smoothness etc... It is not as bad as before but the wheel still vibrates A LOT....

    Keep in mind that fiddling with the smoothness sliders is the crucial step here! The rest won't help reduce vibrations nearly as much as that. So if you are still experiencing vibrations, you will have to increase the smoothers.

    It is also possible that you are driving a car with a suspension geometry not designed for use with steering wheels, but for gamepads or keyboards. Are you having troubles with all vehicles (e.g. official cars), or only with some?

    I tried to put the maximum smoothness but it did not help. Vibrations were not frequent but they were amplified somehow. And I only tried with official cars, I do not have any mods yet.

    In which situations did you get vibrations? Can you please record a video with the "FFB Graph" UI app open on screen?
