v2.3.3

• Diagnostics → Axes: four axis tiles fit into one row in a window about 1040 px wide, so the steering and three pedals stand side by side
• Fixed: in German, the health check hint named the role to leave an axis out differently from the Pedals & Paddles tab

Full Changelog: v2.3.2...v2.3.3

v2.3.2

• A large or maximized window uses more of its width, e.g. on a Full HD or 4K screen: the Presets page shows up to seven tiles per row, and the settings get wider tiles with longer sliders instead of empty space at the sides
• The game tiles are a little narrower, so Add Game… and four games fit into one row in a window about 1040 px wide

Full Changelog: v2.3.1...v2.3.2

v2.3.1

• Fixed: tiles on a page line up again. Every folder on the Presets page, and every group of settings, uses the same columns; a long name no longer makes the tiles of its row wider
• Fixed: with few presets in a large or maximized window, they sat in the middle with empty space above them; they are now right below the tiles that make new ones
• Fixed: Add Game…, Save as Preset… and New Folder… were wider than the tiles next to them, so fewer games fitted in a row
• In a narrower window the views in the header bar show their icon above the name instead of cutting the names; preset names break between words

Full Changelog: v2.3.0...v2.3.1

v2.3.0

• New Diagnostics view next to Tuning, Presets and Games, with the tabs Axes, Buttons and LEDs. The main menu is tidier again
• Axes: every axis of the wheel and the pedals with its raw and normalized value, the range the device reports, the range seen since the last reset, flat, fuzz and resolution
• Health check on the Axes tab for the steering and the pedals with a role: a tile turns green once the axis was moved through its range, and orange for a possible fault – a pedal that never reaches full travel, doesn't come back to 0 % or jitters at rest, or a wheel that moves while it should be let go
• Report a Problem adds the results of the health check, if it was run, so a report shows whether the pedals and the steering measure cleanly. It can be switched off there
• Buttons: every button as a numbered cell, lit while held and green once pressed, with its name, code and the number games see (SDL)
• LEDs: switch the rev and flag LEDs one by one, show the colours of RGB LEDs and run a short test that can be stopped at any time. When you leave the tab, the LEDs are set back as they were
• Preferences → Wheelbase shows the device details: name, USB vendor and product ID and the kernel driver, with a button to copy them for a GitHub issue. Problem reports include them too, and name the build of hid-fanatecff, which tells drivers built from git apart
• Pedal axes are hidden with an eye button instead of a role, and keep their role while hidden
• Fixed: a click anywhere on a row with a switch turned the setting on or off; now only the switch does

Full Changelog: v2.2.0...v2.3.0

v2.2.0

• Preferences → Wheelbase can show the name of the applied preset on the LED display of the steering wheel, off unless switched on: the first three characters it can show, e.g. “Ral” for “Rally 1”. Also for the preset of a game that starts, and after switching slots the preset of the new slot
• A preset belongs to the slot it was applied in: after switching slots, in Understeer or on the wheelbase, the preset of the new slot is active again, and the values of another slot are no longer offered for saving into the preset
• “Remove … from Slot” in the Presets menu takes the active preset out of the slot; its values stay on the wheelbase
• Preferences → Wheelbase has a test for the steering wheel display: it shows a short text such as 888, so you can see whether your steering wheel has a display, which the driver can't tell

Full Changelog: v2.1.0...v2.2.0

v2.1.0

• Preferences → Wheelbase switches the tuning menu on the display of the wheelbase between Standard and Advanced, e.g. to use the tuning slots. Each mode keeps the slot last used in it, and in Standard mode the slot menu offers Auto and Custom, which can be named; switching on the wheelbase is followed right away. Shown when hid-fanatecff offers it (0.1.1 or newer)
• The slot menu shows Auto while the wheelbase is on its Auto setup, instead of the slot before
• After applying a preset no tile is marked as changed any more: the preset is what Undo goes back to
• The slot menu no longer offers a sixth slot: on a CSL DD that was its Auto setup, which can now be named under Slot Names
• Messages shown while the preferences are open replace each other instead of queueing up
• Report a Problem also tells which functions your wheelbase, steering wheel and pedals offer (e.g. LEDs, display, pedal rumble) and whether hid-fanatecff is from before October 2026

Full Changelog: v2.0.0...v2.1.0

v2.0.0

Understeer 2.0: presets and games work the same way, nothing you delete is gone at once, and the steering angle goes as far as your wheelbase does.

• Presets and games look and work the same: a pencil next to the name renames them (games too, now), a ⋮ menu holds the rarer actions, and Select lets you choose several tiles and delete them at once
• Deleted presets and games go to a trash and stay there for 30 days, opened with Trash next to Select on their page; the message after deleting offers Undo for 10 seconds
• Drag presets onto a folder to put them there, or onto Without Folder to take them out; Group is gone. New Folder makes a folder, also by dropping a preset on it, and a folder stays until you delete it with the bin next to its name, keeping its presets or with them
• The steering angle goes up to 2520° on direct drive wheelbases and shows Auto as the wheelbase reports it. Auto can also be chosen without a wheelbase, e.g. to save it in a preset
• Settings the wheelbase keeps in steps of ten only (steering angle, vibration, force, spring and damper effects, effect intensity, brake force) move in such steps, so the value shown is the one on the wheelbase
• Long names of presets, folders, games and slots end in “…” instead of making tiles, menus and messages wider; pointing at a cut name on a tile or folder shows it whole
• The dialogs for names are wider and list your folders and games to pick from; a missing name is marked red in the dialog
• The texts say wheelbase everywhere, the German translation uses the same word for the same thing throughout, and dates look the same in the trash and in What's New

Fixed:

• A preset with Auto as its steering angle set 90°, and Auto or an angle above 1080° set on the wheelbase was shown as 1080°
• Without write permissions, changes waiting for Apply were lost when the window was opened, e.g. the preset of a game that started in the background; Discard, and a preset the wheelbase already matched, left changes to apply
• Steam games with “&” in their name had no name in the list of Add Game
• An import shows its theme, accent colour, corners and tray icon right away, not only after a restart
• Saving a preset under the name of an existing one puts it into the folder entered in the dialog
• Unplugged pedals leave the live display instead of staying there frozen
• A failed reset of the tuning slots and a damaged preset file are reported; such a file can be deleted, and damaged settings no longer keep Understeer from starting
• Deleting a folder with its presets keeps the folder if one of them could not be deleted
• In a big window, e.g. maximized on a 4K screen, the theme previews in the preferences no longer stretch down the whole page

Full Changelog: v1.11.0...v2.0.0

v1.11.0

• The tray menu lists your presets, the active one checked; a click applies it without opening the window, and a notification tells how it went. With unsaved changes, the window opens and asks first
• Presets can be grouped in folders, e.g. several for one game: Group on each preset puts it into one, and Save as Preset suggests the folder of the active one. The Presets page shows a section per folder, the Presets menu and the tray menu a submenu. The pencil next to a name renames a preset or a folder

Full Changelog: v1.10.0...v1.11.0

v1.10.0

• The AppImage can look for new versions on GitHub, at start and every hour, and then shows a note at the top until you update; it asks once before it looks
• From that note, the AppImage updates itself with one click: it downloads the new version, checks it against GitHub's checksum, replaces itself and restarts
• Report an Issue in About opens Understeer's report window, which fills in the details, instead of GitHub
• The AppImage no longer runs Python code from the folder it was started in, e.g. a folder named understeer there

Full Changelog: v1.9.4...v1.10.0

v1.9.4

• The changes are now only in What's New in the main menu, with all versions; About links to all versions on GitHub instead
