Logitech FFB Support

Logitech G940 · Force 3D Pro · WingMan Force 3D

FFB-Bridge supports selected Logitech force-feedback sticks: Logitech Flight System G940, Logitech Force 3D Pro, and Logitech WingMan Force 3D. The force model is the same MSFS 2024 and X-Plane pipeline, with device-specific USB detection and direction handling. The G940 is driven directly through the stick's own force protocol on Windows, Linux, and macOS: 16-bit constant force, the native spring, the damping channel, and native centering, with the platform driver paths kept as automatic fallback. On Windows this removes the need for Logitech Gaming Software 5.10, whose 2010 kernel drivers current Windows Memory Integrity blocks; on Linux the native spring and damping channel are available for the first time; on macOS the stick has force feedback for the first time.

Start on Support for Health checks and device detection. If the stick feels reversed or needs fallback force output, use Hardware → Calibration and the Hardware compatibility controls.

What changed

Supported-device registry

The bridge now chooses from a registry of supported force-feedback joysticks instead of assuming every install is a SideWinder FFB2.

First run

Validate on the Support page

After launch, run Support checks. If forces pull the wrong way, use the live polarity test. On sticks whose driver renders no periodic effects, rumble, buffets, and mechanical cues are synthesised automatically at 200 Hz into the constant-force output; there is no setting to find.

Other FFB hardware

Other Logitech models, Thrustmaster bases, wheels, gameport adapters, and custom devices are still research targets. Use FFB Probe for those.

Validated hardware

Known devices get known-good defaults

The G940 runs on its own decoded force protocol on Windows, Linux, and macOS (16-bit constant force, native spring, damping channel, and native centering), validated on all three, with the platform driver paths as automatic fallback. The Force 3D Pro and WingMan Force 3D use the platform driver paths; on Linux, sticks whose driver renders no periodic effects get rumble, buffets, and mechanical cues synthesised automatically into the constant-force output.

Tell us what Support checks report Include the detected device name, VID/PID, platform, and whether Health checks pass.
Describe the physical feel Especially if spring centering, pitch/roll polarity, rumble, or buffets feel inverted, missing, or too strong.
Attach a support bundle Diagnostics → Export support bundle gives us logs, settings, Support checks output, and runtime state without collecting flight telemetry.
