But the software hasn't officially changed in a long time and is as bare bones as it gets. This forum is a step in the right direction, when it comes to customer engagement, but the lack of updates is getting a bit frustrating. I can understand that a small company has limited resources, but still, a little more proactive announcements can be good. Even if there is nothing new to announce because work is taking longer than planned. Just keep us informed.</p>

<p dir="auto">We'll look into the crash issue and try to replicate it. Can you post your current PLR file?</p>

<p dir="auto">The <strong>bug</strong> about the crashes happens with walls too. Even with hard kerbs. Wheel goes left and wants to keep there with the force has been atacked in that Kerb/wall/car. FFB keeps working but with an extra high force to the left.</p>

1- If I always play a game wich must be played in "game mode" why doesnt allow me to set that mode (instead of Sim Mode) as default?<br />
2- If I always use the same profile to play why I have to load instead of save as "startup" of default?<br />
3- Maybe even posibility to eprom save or internal save so its not needed to open the software to play with my profile or mode.</p>

2 news:<br />
Everything seems to work perfectly in GT Legends (so in Simbin in general), but I have found a bug:<br />
When I crash agains a car the wheel keeps working but the ffb whats to keep left. After restarting ffb in the game (alt+f in GTL) it keeps working perfectly.<br />
2 videos to show this (big crash and "not so big")</p>

<p dir="auto">I know that its not normal to have that crashes but in case I have the wheel gets stuck.<br />
All this in "game mode" (Sim mode doesnt even recognize the wheelbase.</p>

We're looking into this. If you are running v21.07.02, switch to "Game Mode" to avoid this issue.</p>

<p dir="auto">iRacing is fine in "Sim Mode". Changing to "Game Mode" is only for titles that don't work properly in "Sim Mode".<br />
"Game Mode" is a stripped down implementation and will typically only be needed for compatibility reasons.</p>
