    So I'm happily playing Thursday night with everything 100% functional, I have auto-update disabled in Steam and no update was applied when I started it up on Friday afternoon when I fired up AMS2 to try some of the new mod cars from Thunderflash/diodec.

    The first track (Silverstone) practice session loads and I tweak some button assignments and hit the "reset all per-car FFB" just to have a clean slate for all cars since I hadn't cleared them since several AMS2 updates ago (at least two months). When I pulled out of the pits and didn't feel anything from my T300. I went ahead and completed the first lap and it didn't make so much as a single twitch.

    I know about the temperature related fade issues with the T300 (Noctua fan mod was my solution), but this is different, it's like FFB was just completely disabled. I tried picking the vanilla AMS2 cars (F3 309, then Porsche GT1), and my wheel was still completely dead. Steering axis, pedals, and all button inputs work just fine, but it's like FFB was just "turned off".

    Since then I've tried disabling all mods, reinstalling my wheel drivers, file integrity verification in Steam, and nothing has improved. Still not a twitch. FFB is working great as normal in all other games (Dirt2, AC, RF2, etc). All I can think that might've caused this was clearing the per-car profiles as that was literally the only "change" between when AMS2 FFB was working great and the next day when it was gone without a trace.

    Any ideas or angles I can take to resolve this are greatly appreciated. I'm trying to figure out where the per-car FFB profiles are stored so I can investigate those, but I haven't spotted 'em yet. Anyhow, thanks in advance!


    P.S. Just wanted to acknowledge that I've posted this issue in more than one place and will be promptly circling back to remove those comments as soon as I get traction with one of my posts/comments.
