Automobilista 2 Custom Force Feedback - Overview & Recommendations

Would be nice, but so far nothing has really been done to support any customization except not actually removing the custom ffb option completely.
No idea what Reiza's strategy/politics is on it, and I think we'll only know in quite a while, since either way they are buried in work for now

 

Hehe, yes, I can understand that.
How high do you have the Lfb slider?

 

Very low filters.
Minimal recon 1.
Friction 5% or so.

Please try lower Lfb.
Is your steering wheel a very light or heavy type?

 

hi quick question with the newest files which by the way did fix the weird feel i had after the latest AMS2 updates thankyou. However, I now have an issue with over-rotation. I have had this in the past but AMS2 seemed to have more or less resolved the issue however it is back. Is there anything in you file that may affect this ?

 

over-rotation?
I am not quite sure what you mean?

 

Hey Easy81,

Just posted new version that should fix the issue & also it does not exaggerate the details & bumps on use of lfb slider: https://forum.reizastudios.com/attachments/silver-raw-6-6-5-9-9-9-9-9-6-zip.10855/

 

It sounds really weird.
I have the same wheel base & I don't get the vibrations, what are your in-game and TrueDrive settings?
It could be you need to delete the "Documents/Automobilista 2" folder & set up your config again too. This is required on occasion between releases & the custom FFB will act really weird sometimes if that's the case.

 

Ok, those should not cause any problems.
It must be something else.
I would like to add that using the custom file I think those high friction/damper & inertia will remove quite a lot of the feeling.
I would lower them all. Actually putting damper & inertia to 0. Then friction at 5%, maybe.

But it sounds like the issue might be that you need to delete the "Documents\Automobilista 2" folder, I'm afraid.
Then add the custom file back in again & restart the game.

 

What file I should use for CSW 2.5. Mid or High end?

 

They're actually identical for the last cpl versions.

 

sorry after i wrote this i thought don't be daft ffb is not to blame. with the dd2 there has been an issue where when cornering the car would just overrotate without you really feeling anything - so was very hard to counter. this had been fixed but the recent updates seemed to bring it back and was curious if it could be ffb related. anyway i tinkered a little and reinstalled the controller files and we seem to be back on track . sorry to have bothered you

 

Hey Easy81,

I found the issue finally, I think, new latest version direct link:

https://forum.reizastudios.com/attachments/silver-raw-6-6-5-9-9-9-9-9-7-zip.10885/

 

Quite a significant change? I used to run with Gain=65,LFB=25-30, now Gain=60,LFB=0 (Mclaren GT3). Perhaps I have to test it more

 

HI Sherpa,

Which was the last version you used?

 

I think 2 earlier, so 9.5?

 

Hi

Could you explain this variable and the range please , many thanks

(centering 0.6) #How fast the wheel auto centers.

 

Is there much difference between .......9.6 and ........9.7? I have gone back to 9.6 as i could not get the same feeling of all the road textures and bumps etc. with 9.7. Even with big changes in the file. Maybe I need to delete the AMS 2 documents folder and start again. Please keep up the good work, as, for me, the FFB with these custom files are still better than Default.

 

Hey Michael,

Thanks, yes, I agree the default ffb has taken a temporary step backwards.

I did exactly tone down how much the details and bumps are boosted by the Lfb.
I can add a variable to the top tomorrow so you can more easily adjust it.

Best,

Hi inthebagbud,

It is a value to adjust travel distance for the steering wheel to center. You could say it's how much resistance is in the rack/powersteering. The lower the more resistance, so longer travel distance.
It makes for a very different ki d of feel to change it by more than 0.15 or 0.2, as I remember.
I am away, but if I remember correct it should be in the range ]0;1[

 

Yes, it's the idea that it should vibrate, you can set the values "engine_scale_at_still" and "engine_scale_at_sæeed" to both be 0.0 and it should stop.
