    Also with their recommended Fanatec settings?

    I think so. I’ve used their fanatec settings when I’ve seen them but I don’t think every file I’ve tried has recommended fanatec settings. Thanks for helping by the way.

    Well removing the inertia and dampening in the Fanatec settings could help, but also increasing FX helps. I use Kuku’s file with my CSL DD and IMO it’s very informative

    I do feel it is more informative than the default and default + profiles, but it felt sluggish to me. It didn’t feel snappy or responsive.

    In file
    try reducing ( rack_friction )
    And then increasing ( centering )

    You are not the first to want to copy a simulation. Like everyone else, you will fail because Ams2 will always be Ams2 with its own physics and FFB. The hype around Le Mans is huge. Also through the countless YouTubers who feed their fanboys. My tip to your question: If you like a simulation, stick with it and don't try to copy anything. And in the end it comes down to personal taste. You think it's good, I think it's bad and rate it as a 1:1 rf2 mod. You see, it's all very subjective and everyone has a different opinion about it;)

    One thing you can try, and is not FFB related, is to increase steering sensitivity - I haven't try LMU yet but rF2 steering is much more sensitive around the center. In AMS2, going from default 50 to 75-100 will get you closer to what rF2 (LMU?) does.

    Thanks! I will do more testing to see if I get to a good point.

    Thank you very much! I have tried your changes to the file and I like them. Fanatec settings are similar than what I had already. I have switched to PEAK because I find it stronger as you say, and I have FFB strength set to 100% and Force Effect Intensity to 70 (too much rattling at 100 for my taste).

    I have tried with the Porsche GT3 Gen 2 and definitely it feels more planted and less slippery. I have a better feeling of what the car is doing with this file and wheel settings, so I will keep trying with other cars and tracks to see if it does the trick for me :)

    Ok, looks I use Default+. Is Default+ correct and are those the correct settings? What I noticed: the resistance and so on is fine, but I'd like to have more difference between "everything is alright" and "you are losing it".

    This Thread is for custom FFB settings. You can find here suggestions and files for the custom ffb. You should read post #1 how to turn on the custom ffb and test some files.
    You can finde the files here Automobilista 2 Custom Force Feedback - Overview & Recommendations
    Maybe you'll find what you want.
    To test different files easily you can use madnesstool, so you don't always have to rename the files.https://forum.reizastudios.com/threads/madness-tool-custom-ffb-and-profile-manager.11562/

    Hi @easy81 glad you like it, not had that myself but maybe play with the oversteer and understeer scales to your liking. Be aware though this may have a knock on effect on other settings.

    Fanatastic job! My favorite ffb file so far. For my taste I had to crank up FX to 40 but everything else is spot on!

    I need some help please, ingame the curbs pull the steering in the opposite direction to which side the curb is. Everything else seems to be correct. Well I think the rest of the forces are ok but if the curb forces are reversed, then the rest must be the same.
    I have loaded the custom ffb file to see if that changes it but is still the same. I have a Simucube1 steering

    Good feeling from you, not many people notice this. I had this problem for a long time but was able to fix it

    I'm not sure the problem is FFB related, I think it's physics based, SuperV8 is particularly bad for this!

    @Danielkart Are you saying your latest file doesn't do it any more? Because I have the same problem, and I'm on your latest one. Any help would be great. I remember that there was a line somewhere in the file that you could change but can't remember where I saw it, and what line it was.
