Steering wheel: crashes the game
BeamNG.drive crashes with a Logitech G920 unless force feedback is disabled, or with a SpeedLink steering wheel (Drift O.Z. and others)? Causes and workarounds.This article is part of Steering wheels: common problems and solutions.
G920 crashes the game unless force feedback is disabled
Logitech G920 used to crash certain games in buggy versions of their drivers released before 2017.
- Fully uninstall all previous versions if necessary. After installing, make sure to check that the installed version is the one you installed, and not some other version that Windows installed.
My SpeedLink steering wheel crashes the game
- The SpeedLink official drivers are known to crash several 64 bit games, including BeamNG.drive. Using the old 32-bit version of the game will avoid the buggy 64 bit version of SpeedLink drivers, and is the only known way to avoid the crash.
This happens with many SpeedLink steering wheels, such as the Drift O.Z. (among others).
Still not working?
- Follow the steering wheel troubleshooter to check step by step that everything is set up correctly.
