Recalbox 11: Force feedback racing wheels supported

Key points

Recalbox 11 adds force feedback support for several Logitech and Fanatec racing wheels. It also brings a new Wheels virtual system, a wheel settings menu with a test screen, and a setup wizard that runs the first time a wheel is connected.

Supported wheels

• Force feedback works on the Logitech G29 and G923.
• It also works on the Fanatec CSL DD, Gran Turismo DD Pro, ClubSport DD and CSL Elite; the CSL Elite base must be in PC mode.
• Experimental support covers the Fanatec ClubSport V2 and V2.5, Podium DD1 and DD2, CSR Elite and Porsche 911.
• The team says the list will grow, and owners of wheels not listed can ask for support on the project's Discord.

Wheels virtual system

• A new Wheels system collects arcade games meant to be played with a steering wheel, for example Out Run, Daytona USA and Pole Position.
• It can be switched on in the virtual systems menu.

Wheel menu and setup

• A dedicated wheel menu includes a test screen.
• Force feedback amplitude and effects can be set separately for each system and for each game.
• The first time a wheel is plugged in, a wizard detects it and walks the user through configuration.

Paddle shifters and wheels without force feedback

• Paddle shifters now change gears in racing games on the Model 3 and Naomi 2 systems.
• They also work in Crazy Taxi, Maximum Speed, Faster Than Speed and Out Run.
• On Naomi and Atomiswave, wheels without force feedback keep their centering return spring.
