Automobilista 2 Custom Force Feedback - Overview & Recommendations

Just got a Moza r9. What custom file do people here recommend?

 

Here is my V2 file for Logitech dd 11nm.
Might work good for other bases, i just don't know.
Base settings and in game settings are shown in the file.
Works great on dirt as well. Feels good to me anyways, and of course i am open to suggestions and criticism.

 

curious what you set damper to, on wheel base and in game? I have the same wheel, going to give your file a go tonight.

 

I have it on 0 for both.

 

Is there any dirt/rx specific settings to adjust in the ffb file? I'm using Danielkart's V80 and it's great stuff, however with the new offroad cars my wheel almost threw me outside the window even on 50% vehicle ffb

 

Do you guy´s have settings for T300 ?

 

Same here. I'd change to default for dirt races for now

 

As promised a few days ago I would post my custom FFB file made to work with the new 1.5 update.

I've called it Medium Messing, the Midrange special as I've based it on the Heavy Messing V2.5 by Nuscorpii, and took my time to rework the values to optimize specifically for 8Nm (or so) DD wheel bases, and bring out as much low and midrange information as possible, translating in more subtle tire information and a very connected road feel. All while preserving as much dynamic range as possible for lower powered DD wheel bases.

I've made a longer explainer post HERE, to read more about how this file came to be and some recommendations on experimenting with different values. I made it during the beta test period leading up to 1.5. Feel free to try it regardless if you have a 8Nm DD, but I have no idea if it even remotely feels good on your setup.

Final note, the .txt, in game and base settings all go hand in hand, so please try it accordingly. Thank you.

In game and base settings
Gain - 85
LFB - 1
FX - 50
Damping - 25

SEN - Auto
FFB - 100
FFS - Linear [please try this for a while, even if you always used Peak like I did!]
NDP - Off
NFR - Off
NIN - 12
INT - 1
FEI - 100

This is all based on personal preference. If it's not for you that is totally fine. If you like it, great!

 

Sorry for posting again here i didn't saw this thread.
Is there a way to disable trueforce? i have a g923 i was using the command line disableTF, but i think it isn't working anymore can someone confirm?

 

Slightly but important changes to my FFB settings.
Now using @Danielkart v80 - 5Nm (as it was intended by the author) and given much more precise responses and gone are the vague center.

Ingame:
Gain above 90 stresses my wheel too much and also a lot of clipping. I suggest the window 65 to 85. My set is 75 (strong as I like it).
LFB and FX window 0 to 10. My set is 1 for both.
Damping 0 as in previous version.

Very important:
Assure your TM driver is up-to-date and strictly set to Default as advices FFB Guru @Karsten Hvidberg

 

Have a little work in progress tune going if anyone wants to try it .
haven’t settled on it yet , changes aren’t major .
the tires have so much more flex feel from game now i’ve turned stretch feel down and am experimenting with the balance of it .

.

 

Nice! I see you lowered texture scale, feels much better for me

 

I tried this with my Thrustmaster TS-PC and it works great, the best I've tried.
I'm waiting for a new wheelbase and I'm already crossing my fingers it will be as good as it is now.
For those interested, I used 70-30-40-0 on ingame dials.

 

I dont mind a bit of texture feel.
Im liking the balance feel better in this file.

 

@Kuku Maddog
Thank you!
Great file, very smooth, even little too much maybe (0 damping on R9, 16 before).
Definitely the best I've already tried on 1.5 and one of the best in general, at least for me.

 

Will keep this in mind, I'll have an R12 and a KS wheel.

The file from @Br1am seems to have better linearity with TS-PC.
Both Kuku's and Daniel's give an almost spring, saturated effect with this wheelbase - I cannot feel the road oscilations while turning, like there's clipping somewhere - example, Kyalami turns 4 and 6, every car I tested. (Porsche and Mercedes GT1, USA Gen 2, Porsche GTE)

Both Default+ and Br1am's give me oscilations everytime the visuals are oscilanting. And that's essential for connection feel (I'm using Legacy Head Movement, not the new one).
Default+ is too slow and overreacting.

 

I'm feeling roughness in the wheel when turning, tried turning up interpolation filter (smoothness) but it kind of removes too much detail. any suggestion as to how I can smoothen it out without loosing detail? hope that makes sense

 

Make changes here (from Kuku's file):
(for instance, try micro_bumps_scale 0 to see if that's the parameter you want to change, and go from here)

###########################################################
#
# Road features settings
#

(texture_scale 0.4)
(micro_bumps_scale 0.275)
(micro_bumps_smooth 0.008)
(kerbs_surface_scale 5.5)
(kerbs_surface_smooth 0.03)
(kerb_bump_scale 2.5) #How big the tall curb bumps are.
(large_track_bump_scale 0.1) #how much bumps on the track are felt.
(large_offroad_bump_scale 0.2) #how much bumps off the track are felt.

 

Ooh sounds very good. I will try this today. I still need to try Daniels v80 file

 

For me best file for now is @Daniel V70 for 1.5. V80 feels strange, no weight transfer feeling when hard braking. @Kuku Maddog last file not bad, but i dont feel car weight on that, and center bit soft to me.
