    that’s great
    yes it useful as is centering strength over all.
    I have changed the way i used to run higher lfb with these latest files with the split rack to now running almost none with good results.

    I'm really loving the 0.49 version, thanks Karsten et al. Nearly every car I've tried it with has massively improveddriving feel. Unfortunately this doesn't extend to the karts it seems. I tried out the various karts and they were completely undriveable, felt like the FFB was inverted - the wheel pulled in the direction I turned it. Switched back to default and the FFB was fine. Not a big deal for me personally, I don't really enjoy the karts anyway, but it might be worth looking into.

    Ah, thanks,
    After v50 has been tuned and posted we can look at that, hopefully is a simple fix. Never ran them, yet 8)

    Cheers Karsten. While you're at it, you might want to take a look at why the steering on all the cars I have tried actually gets heavier if it starts to rain.

    v50 is proving a little tricky. But Karts are now working in it. No time to look at rain issue, so will have to be for v51.
    Hopefully v50 is today or tomorrow.

    I noticed the rain issue last night actually.
    i wonder if it related to hot fix that they pushed to try and reduce grip on slicks on a damp track.
    it’s like it’s working in reverse. the gain in weight felt like the same level i would expect things to get a bit light due to less friction.

    So it's also an issue when running "Default" FFB?

    Hello all,

    Thank you for this wonderful custom FFB. I'm so pleased with what I've noticed after just a few minutes of testing.

    I have a DD1 and wanted to ask what values you have set in the DD1 itself?

    InGame is documented. But where can I find the recommended values for Base itself?

    Thank you very much for the great work!

    Here's my DD1 settings, works great with Karsten's files :)
    As you can see I have pretty much everything OFF in the Fanatec settings.
    Overall FFB is high on the wheelbase, I prefer to keep it low in-game.

    v50 just posted:

    * Huge thanks to @Panos Schoino & @Shadak for the many hours of adjustments & everybody else in the forum for all the awesome feedback to work from.
    * Also huge thanks to Reiza @Renato Simioni @Domagoj Lovric for help providing valuable information making it possible to improve these files further than otherwise would have ever been possible.
    * Fine tuned. Never posted v49 in post #2, since it was not big time fine tuned, but it was really hard to achieve as good and slightly surpass the feel of that one anyways :)
    * More correct deform & stretch calculations.
    * Updated road bumps calculations.
    * Added additional lfb at very small turning angles.
    * All karts working well. Not hugely fine tuned, but def great. These can prob. be made extraordinarily awesome if anybody's up for that fine tuning work.

    Excellent, the .50 version exactly meets my expectations for living ffb. Now i can finally replace my .26. My only change is to the tighten section, but every Logitech user has their own preferences here.
    I use a G27, low-end, ingame settings: FFB 40, FX 100, everything else 0.

    Thanks for your efforts, it's amazing what you can get out of an old piece of hardware when the software is right.

    V50 feels extremely well tuned.
    running mid file the only tweaks i feel i want to make are slightly reduced scrub scale, lower rack friction and half the centering value for less friction overall.

    I’m curious about Lat edge , what does it do ?
    for fun i experimented with double the values and also very low value.
    doesn’t make extreme changes but perhaps a little more feel of real grip at lower values.
    is it just a multiplier of lateral force ??

    Any recommended in game FFB settings advice for TS-PC(I think high end)? Currently use 55/25/60/30 but I wonder and feel if I can go for any better.
    Edit: For .50 version.

    It was an experiment added to an earlier version. It does not make much sense to have it like this, so I expect it to be removed or changed for v51.

    Just finished a wee test session before bed, and I definitely enjoy lat edge at 0.0 more , feels less exaggerated.

    Improved Kart feel quite a lot in 10 mins time, so if anybody's doing any karting I have better values for those & just pm me.
    It will be part of v51.
