Automobilista 2 Custom Force Feedback - Overview & Recommendations

Danke Dir Daniel, Gute Besserung und komm schnell zurück!

 

Get well soon, Daniel! Your presence will be sorely missed!

BTW, I added the V80 files, plus a few other recent files, to the collection I put together here. For the time being, the V70 files are included as an earlier appendix.

 

I have problems with FFB in AMS2 using new physic cars in 1.4.8.1 (formula v10 gen1 and junior)
I use Fanatec Wheelbase 2.5 with the custom FFB file on page 1, and selected it in game, using these values:
FFB in Game: 90/0/50/0/20 Fanatec settings: SEN auto, FF 100, DRI off, FEI 70, FOR 100, SPR 100, DPR off, BLI 090, BRF 050.
-
The ffb has nearly no usable informations, the harder I turn/drive in corners, the harder is the force, yes, but I am completely missing any usable information through the ffb, everything feels the same. When 2 or even all wheel hit the grass there is absolutely no change in ffb, when I hit a curb there is no different information, and I cant feel the moment before I slip away /loose control. Only when the car breaks completely out, only then the ffb feels different / less force, but then it is too late. Isnt there any change in ffb when the tires are nearly before loosing grip?
In ACC 1.8 for my opinion I had much more control and much more usable ffb-informations, there, when a tire hits the grass I had drastic ffb-changes for example.
Are the custom files here not good for new physics or have I wrong settings?

 

You need to go into a custom file & spend and familiarise yourself with it
Take a couple of hours but the time invested is worth it
I’m still perfecting my ffb but it’s now the best I’ve experienced in any sim due to tuning to my ffb system

 

Wrong thread.

 

Your settings read that you are using Default FFB , not custom file. ?
if using custom you need to select it as profile in menu .
Also your Gain levels are very high

 

I have tried a custom file (V80). However, For me, I like Default+ better. The file says that you should set FEI to 20% and disable INT. Fanatec recommendations say that you should not set FEI below 70-80%, because the latency suffers. For the smoothing of the FFB, the INT filter is more suitable.

My Fanatec settings are almost identical except for FEI.

 

Fanatecs recommendation is correct. FEI 20 is a very bad setting which kills a lot of FFB detail completely and also introduces a lot of latency and surely should not be used. Better run a higher INT setting to smooth things out but leave FEI at 70 or above.

 

Oh crap dude. I hope it is not serious and things are well or get well very soon. Thank you for all you have contributed.

 

Man, many thanks for this pack. I have real troubles looking through 330 forum pages for profiles, this one is awesome help.

And of course billion +1 thanks to every custom ffb file maker here. And get well soon Daniel.

 

Hy ich werde die V80 Version auf meiner CSL DD mal austesten.
Derzeit habe ich noch das Reiza FFB auf Standart eingestellt.
Ich werde Feedback geben wie es sich fährt
Daniel Gesundheitlich alles Beste Wünsch ich Dir undf auch das Reiza Forum.

 

Get well soon Daniel as you have played a huge roll in mine and many others enjoyment of AMS2.

I am happy to say that there is not a huge difference between V80 and Default. This is a good thing as Reiza now has a very solid default FFB once you get it dialed in. I do think the default needs to have the kerbs strikes dialed down a bit more. Great work as always Daniel!

 

This is very helpful. Thank you.

 

Your in game gain is wayyy too high so you're no doubt clipping like mad and getting little to no information I would imagine. Start at 40 or so and work your way up.

 

@Danielkart Looking forward to trying v80, hoping whatever ails you gets sorted soon, thanks for your hard work bringing out these files.
You'll be missed by all.
Take care bud x.

 

Thanks for all your work Danielkart get well soon another great file

 

But at gain = 40 or even 70 I feel very low FFB. On AMS2 FFB=90 (and in Wheel =100) I feel good but not strong FFB, feels like 2-3 nm force. As Comparison: I came from ACC, there I had FFB that was even stronger than now on 90 and there was no clipping at all.
Strange too is, that the default+ FFB profile is MUCH MUCH stronger than this custom file. default+ on gain =50 feels 3 times so strong than gain =90 in custom file. Is this normal or is something completely wrong perhaps?

 

2nd question:
Do these custom FFB-files, including v80, have more details or informations that are in default(+) profile completely missing, or is it all only a question about optimising the balance between all the values?

 

They change certain values and add or remove some things (sort of)

 

Default+ should give more info than default so the FFB might be stronger, but I’ve never heard of that before
