There is a HUGE amount of love for Initial D 1-3. Like many DEMUL users, what brought DEMUL to my attention was the NAOMI 2 emulation for Initial D. These wheels aren't at all expensive and there are plenty used on ebay, craigslist, gumtree, kijiji, etc. Even if DEMUL Initial D users were forced to go out and buy one specific common Logitech wheel to have FFB work, they would do it. It is highly likely that coding for a popular current console Logitech wheel will allow at least the basis for most Logitech steering wheel compatibility. Logitech uses a single program to manage all their force feedback wheels. PS2 generation Logitech wheels to current generation are pretty much almost completely compatible. I would say over 95% of users use a Logitech branded wheel, the niche market that uses the other high end brands is VERY small and probably not interested in NAOMI 2 emulation. Go take a look at, everyone is using a common, and cheap Logitech Xbox or PS2/3/4 wheel.

These are the wheels people primarily use for PC as they are cheap, there are tonnes of them out there, and they are even cheaper used.

But really, most people already have their Playstation and Xbox "Gran Turismo" and "Forza" bundled steering wheels which are simply re-labelled logitech wheels that have full PC compatibility.
Most modern console logitech wheels do an excellent job, and are VERY cheap, nowhere near $400 or $800, more like $20 to $150 (depending on the model). I know, it's easier said than done.Ī high end wheel isn't necessary for basic FFB function.
#NAOMI EMULATOR FULL CODE#
All that needs to be done is the code that is sent to the Naomi 2 steering motor board needs to be converted to the standard PC code for steering wheels. Therefore, the code going to the wheel (or the wheel's drivers/software) from each game is in the same basic format. There is a HUGE market for high end wheels which are mostly used in PC sim racing.Īll games that support force feedback universally support all force feedback steering wheels. Whatever game is in this video is a very bad example of good feedback, but you can see the mechanics of the wheel in action. If you were program for a single steering wheel it should in theory work for almost all. įor example, just so you can see basic mechanics (skip to 0:53), here is a Logitech Driving Force GT (PS2/PS3 wheel from 2007):Īlso, all modern feedback steering wheels are universally compatible, so they must use a universal code of some sort. We've come a VERY long way with PC force feedback steering wheels.
Even low end cheaper models, even models several years old (from the PS2 era). I'm quite positive that all modern force feedback steering wheels can do everything the arcade steering motor can do.
I understand what you're saying, but I believe you may have a misunderstanding of console and PC steering wheels.
