What’s new in 6.8.5 – 15/09/2019 ?
- Removed the two “generic entries” : “other codemasters” and “Other F1 Games series” which have been triggering my OCD for too long 😀 , they have been replaced by a proper game entry for F12012, F12013, F12014, F12015, Grid 2, Grid AutoSport with proper automatic game configuration, the following games were not added for the following reasons :
- F1 2010 and F1 2011 : due to GFWL issues on modern systems (W10) preventing legit copies to work.

ShakeIt rewrite
Probably one of the most difficult rework ever made on SimHub, this rewrite took 8 months of hard labour to offer the best force feedback engine possible.
Covering lot of possible hardware : bass shakers, vibration motors, fans, wind with curvature, Forcefeel pad, Gametrix pad, Fanatec pedals, this new engine offers lot of flexibility when managing effects.
You now have access to a profile manager, automatic effects calibration, and lot of new things intended to improve your experience
A more flexible effects profile management : Add or remove effects, duplicate, copy, visualize …
From the most basic setup to the craziest, you have the full freedom for your bass shakers, butt kickers or tactile feedback hardware :
Control each device separately, with full control over channels allocation :
