This is not a wine issue though and I think you're still missing the dofference between hidraw and SDL/udev buses. Your device will work perfectly with hidraw as it goes around system drivers and in this casez wine handles THE driver.

I hacked together [some ugly Windows code](https://github.com/twhitehead/issue-wine-ff-autocenter) to test all possible setting of `DIPROP_AUTOCENTER` (not set, set `DIPROPAUTOCENTER_OFF`, and set `DIPROPAUTOCENTER_ON`). There is a precompiled version in the `bin` directory. It * gets the initial `DIPROP_AUTOCENTER` value and show that in a message box * acquires the device with the intial `DIPROP_AUTOCENTER` and prompts to continue, * acquires the device after setting `DIPROP_AUTOCENTER` to `DIPROPAUTOCENTER_OFF` and prompts to continue, and * acquires the device after setting `DIPROP_AUTOCENTER` to `DIPROPAUTOCENTER_ON` and prompts to continue. For the original Wine code, there was perfect agreement using my USB Sidewinder 2 * the default value is `DIPROPAUTOCENTER_ON`, * when acquired without setting `DIPROP_AUTOCENTER` the default value, I feel the spring effect, * when acquired after explicitly setting `DIPROPAUTOCENTER_OFF`, I feel it go limp, and * when acquired after explicitly setting `DIPROPAUTOCENTER_ON`, I feel the spring effect. Based on this merged code, I would expect it will now be stuck in `DIPROPAUTOCENTER_ON` for older kernels and `DIPROPAUTOCENTER_OFF` for newer kernels. -- https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/8605#note_112406

Fwiw you can create different device types in the tests and check whether autocenter has a different default value, but I suspect like @TomaszPakula says, that it's just unspecified behavior. The DInput autocenter feature doesn't seem to be well defined, even on the HID PID side, and sends a generic (reset / stop all) command that drivers are free to interpret the way they like. -- https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/8605#note_112404

You're thinking too much. It's no the default of the Windows/API but how drivers behave. A lot of wheels use custom protocol and they can do whatever they want with autocenter and PID wheels just don't support any explicit autocenter method. It's more likelay an omission on the part of developer that still works because wheel manufacturers work around it. The current handling of autocenter is correct and works in all three cases (hidraw/SDL/udev). -- https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/8605#note_112403

My thinking is that the default under Windows in `DIPROPAUTOCENTER_ON` for joysticks and `DIPROPAUTOCENTER_OFF` for wheels. Could this be possible? It would perfectly explain @TomaszPakula issue of his wheel not working the same under Windows (no autocentering) and Wine (autocentering) for his truck simulations assuming ETS2/ATS doesn't explicitly set it as the developers only tested wheels on Windows and therefore assumed it would be off. -- https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/8605#note_112402

Setting `DIPROPAUTOCENTER_OFF` by default doesn't pass the tests. The tests also pass on Windows so we can conclude that it's also `DIPROPAUTOCENTER_ON` by default on Windows. -- https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/8605#note_112401

Right. It makes sense that not setting `DIPROR_AUTOCENTER` under Wine gives the same result as setting it to `DIPROPAUTOCENTER_ON` because I made `DIPROPAUTOCENTER_ON` on the [default value](https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/blob/42a63687cd6991de03402d81b… when I first implemented `DIPROR_AUTOCENTER`. I also strongly suspect that it is this default value that is what is actually wrong and needs fixing. -- https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/8605#note_112400
