    We can expect some improvement or update of the ffb in the coming months

    It would be nice to get LFB, Damping and FX key bidding like in PC2
    Being in default or Custom FFB that would be a car fine tuning on the fly or when you move to another one

    I have a Logitech G923 and wondered where I can get a useful FFB. Also, whats the telemetry hub I've seen mentioned that I can check for clipping etc?

    @JRMCreative Assign one of your buttons to the HUD Toggle function, then cycle thru until you get to the Telemetry screen, and you'll see the FFB widget at the bottom left.

    Hi @JRMCreative
    I've posted something a while ago:

    But at the moment, I love the default FFB, with Gain at 100, everything else on 0, damping could be at 50. It really works better for me right now across all the cars. Reiza did a great job with the latest FFB updates.

    I hope not to have hallucinations, but I found a missing line of code (due to forgetfulness or typing error) in the section dedicated to BUMPS in original Karsten's files and then in all the other .... even if the correction does not upset anything please everyone to insert in your files the missing line indicated below in red and in bold ... even old files are flawed, therefore the advice is addressed to everyone. ;)

    (left_bump (* 0.002 (- FL_load (smooth FL_load 0.015))))
    (right_bump (* 0.002 (- FR_load (smooth FR_load 0.015))))
    (left_bump_pos left_bump_pos)
    (right_bump_pos right_bump_pos)
    (left_bump_pos (+ left_bump_pos (* (- left_bump left_bump_pos) (power 0.001 dt))))
    (right_bump_pos (+ right_bump_pos (* (- right_bump right_bump_pos) (power 0.001 dt))))
    (left_bump_pos (max left_bump_pos left_bump))

    (right_bump_pos (max right_bump_pos right_bump))
    (left_bump (spring left_bump_pos 10000 0.1))
    (right_bump (spring right_bump_pos 10000 0.1))


    Unfortunately the correction does not solve the bug of the historical tracks and parabolics ... :mad:
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    EDIT: @Karsten Hvidberg ... maybe, but I'm not sure, I found another anomaly. In these two or four lines of code there are 2 "If" conditions, where in the first there is only 0 and maybe it had to be 0 1 (if FL_bump_kerb 0), while in the second "If" condition is not specified the condition (if FL_bump_offroad....) but directly the argument (large_offroad_bump_scale large_track_bump_scale) without the operation to follow (blend, abs, +, -, etc) ... is that right???

    The complete 4 originals line are:

    (left_details (* left_details (if FL_bump_offroad 0 1) (blend (smooth FL_bump_kerb 0.01) micro_bumps_scale kerbs_surface_scale)))
    (right_details (* right_details (if FR_bump_offroad 0 1) (blend (smooth FR_bump_kerb 0.01) micro_bumps_scale kerbs_surface_scale)))



    (left_bump (* left_bump (if FL_bump_kerb 0 (if FL_bump_offroad large_offroad_bump_scale large_track_bump_scale))))
    (right_bump (* right_bump (if FR_bump_kerb 0 (if FR_bump_offroad large_offroad_bump_scale large_track_bump_scale))))


    Which is correct??? First two lines, the seconds two??? Or all 4 lines are correct or need correct???

    Very interesting files, even for a G25. The grip sensation is more "uniform" all the range, without loosing too much on other signals.

    @Stakanov

    Couple of internal testers mentioned jolts, particularly on Monza oval.
    I looked into it briefly, pls try file below / check the edits i did. Seems to have fixed them.

    This is it. I can confirm that with changing these two lines, the jolts are gone. Thank You.

    Yes @Michael Enright it is also possible that it is correct as a syntax, strange but correct ... the first IF condition requires the "FL_bump_kerb" only to 0 and the second IF requires only the presence of "FL_bump_offroad" then apply the multiplication between i Bump (left and right) and the two values of the scales large_offroad_bump_scale and large_track_bump_scale
    we await confirmation ... ;)

    @Domagoj Lovric @Peter Stefani @Kuku Maddog @Michael Enright

    I am at home, I make the changes communicated to the file and I launch the game but unfortunately passing over the parabolic of Monza the car returns to skip and jolt as before ... to be sure that it is not my file I downloaded the file above but it is not there difference. :(
    I even re-downloaded Karsten's original and made the changes ... but nothing doesn't work!!

    Test carried out on Logitech G920, V10Gen2 car and Monza 10k track (both with chicane and without). :mad:

    I wrong something??? Please duplicate the test... o_O
