    Good morning, all. I was happily driving along in Project Cars 2 for a couple of weeks, testing things, and checking out the game. While testing, we crashed the car and the chair reacted appropriately (seemingly)...however, it seems to be stuck in "crash mode" (i.e. it is now liking a bucking bull ride...which is kind of fun, but not the intent.

    I had to power off the motion chair. The usb did seem to get pulled out during all of this motion. But now, every time I turn it back on, it continues to go crazy (as if it's replaying the car crash). Usb is plugged back in. Computer has been restart. I tried shutting down game engine and game manager to just run sim utilities to run some smooth sine waves. I also tried unpatching and repatching the game. Still a possessed chair.

    Any suggestions on how I can reset everything?

    Thanks in advance.
