The force feedback depends on the kernel (or a userland driver) supporting it,
we just use its capabilities. Unfortunately for your wheel only the constant
force is supported, after trying to look for informations on your wheel I could
not find any information about force feedback on Windows.

Some people suggest to test in the latest kernel (>= 4.6) because many changes
happened to the force feedback area. This specific thread talks about only
constant force being supported:
https://www.reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/comments/44rkqn/is_constant_force_force_feedback_still_the_only/

If in Windows different forces work it means a proprietary driver may support
the other effects.

I'm still undecided if the resolution of this bug is invalid (due to the game
using unsupported effects instead of checking and only using supported ones) or
notourbug (meaning that if Windows supports more effects the Linux kernel
should add support for it), currently from Wine's point of view there is
nothing we can do.
