    Hallo
    Ja meine Sprache ist auch Deutsch. Hab auch so meine Mühe mit der Übersetzung, darum jetzt auf Deutsch. Man sollte es hier drin zwar auf Englisch machen.
    Ich hatte auch zuerst Defaul+ aber für mich kommt nur das benutzer Profil in Frage. Diese schüttlerei und Schwingungen sind nichts für mich, ist auch in real nicht so. Nur schon ein stehender Start ist mit einem Auto ohne tcs und abs ein Genuss mit der Custom Datei , zumindest für mein Empfinden mit meiner geänderten Datei. Oder fahr mal im 1, 2 oder 3 Gang eher langsam und bewege das Lenkrad. Dieses viel zu schnelle Rückspringern des Lenkrads ist absolut nicht wie es sein sollte. Und das Bremsen merk ich ganz genau wenn der Wagen ausbricht , und vor allem hab ich das Auto immer unter Kontrolle bei der Custom. Ich weiss die Geschmäcker sind verschieden , aber bei einer Sim möchte ich so real wie möglich fahren können. Und die custom Datei ist ja von Reiza selber zur Verfügung gestellt worden, also brauch ich dieses geniale Werkzeug mit ein wenig kleinen Änderungen . Ach übrigens dein Vorschlag mit INT höher stellen bringt nur wieder diese Schwingungen mehr zurück. Reiza hat so ein gutes rohes ffb das ich es lieber auf 0 belasse und FEI auf 50% belasse. Aber trotzdem vielen Dank für deinen Vorschlag und viel Spaß mit AMS2 lg

    I wanna say Thank you. It is the First Time my Fanatec CSL DD comes alive with the Kuku´s rFruktor Delta S (Primary scrub) FFB txt File. The car is now fantastic on the Brakes , the overall Feeling is absolute realistic and predictable. That is what i want for a Sim (feel the Front Tyres).

    For more understeer Feeling i adjust the scrub_scale to 2.2. Now i have more Rumble at the Edge of the Tyre

    you can Find the FFB File in the quote Text

    Wheelbase is a Fanatec CSL DD with CSL Hub an a Podium Steering wheel 30cm.
    I use the Fanalab Settings vor AMS2 from Fanatec.

    IN GAME
    Gain 80
    FX 90
    Damper 50 (the damper works like a adjustable Power Steering for this FFB File)

    Hi All

    Got a little bored today ( why does everyone want to run multiple GT3 lobbies ) :whistle:

    So played around with Delta-S and made a Delta - S Evo file that is a bit of a natural evolution from 4.6 based delta and a hybrid with a lot of configurations from rfuktor 5.0, apart from the newer scrub and tear effects.

    Its still features the Caster Trail feel , but does away with the adjustable power steering, just like rFuktor 5.0.1, which I've been enjoying for its consistency , So its very easy to switch from default to custom.

    I think it worked quite well, and interestingly I don't get high speed oscillations, You shouldn't need to adjust your sliders much , if at all.
    I have added multiple options to my Tunes archive available here and in my signature as usual.

    Fyi , I also made a small change to original Delta -S regarding the steering pull which just tightens it up a bit. ;)

    edit : minor bug fix - all files
    edit 8/1/22 : minor housework and Alegunner Belt wheel 4.6 delta tune updated.
    rFuktor 5.0.1 is my current preference

    Hi @tu
    Hi @tUMi what file are you currently using the modified 5.0.1? Can you direct me what profile are you using in TD as there are two of yours. Thank you.

    First of all, thank you guys for making these great additions to an already great game! There's probaly some info regarding this somwhere in this thread, but anyways...I'm currently using rFuktor 5.0.4, and it feels great! It says in the file that it's been tuned by Peter Stefani for Logitech G920. I have a G29. It feels a lot better than default and default+ but i feel it's sometimes a bit "light." Especially when catching a slide, it feels like the ffb suddenly drops out for a split second or two. Not a gamebreaker, everything else feels really good. Probaly the worst explanation ever, but is there some settings in the file i can fiddle with to make it a bit stronger? Thanks :)

    Slightly off-topic....... Would it not be great if everyone posting here has a signature of their specs, mainly wheel?
    2022 Please update your signatures.

    Anyway...Wishing you all a Happy New Year.

    Hiyall,

    I'm back after a break from AMS2 and happy to see Karsten and crew is back with lot's of
    development to complement Reiza's latest excellent physics update. It's feeling really good
    and definitely improvement with the tire physics. I'm stoked Reiza has added Indy
    cars and tracks to the mix with more coming as this has been on my wish list for awhile!

    I downloaded and tested all the latest rFuktor 5 versions along with Kuku's mods.
    Some very nice improvements Karsten! My favorite out of them all by far is
    rFuktor 5.0.1 Kuku mod. It has the most direct connected to the car/road feeling
    and is very predictable and consistent. I like to slide on the limit and this makes
    catching oversteer and throttle steering more controlled and better than ever before.
    Kuku's mod removing the power steering has really improved the consistency and
    predictability on different kinds of corners/speeds and has made me rethink the whole
    power steering model. Definitely a big thumbs up to Karsten and Kuku!

    Cheers,

    Axis

    Where can I find this famous 5.01 Kuku mod? Is it the one on page 1?

    hi Axis

    I didn’t mod anything with 5.0.1, when Karsten and co, presented the new rFuktor 5.0 it featured a new old damping as damping, without power steering slider.
    The only change I’ve made is an adjustment for when tear vibrations ramp up.
    And also I had to reduce acceleration feel as it created a bit of a off on torque notch with front wheel drive cars like the jcw mini.
    Otherwise it’s stock standard tune.

    Ah I see, I didn't catch that and thought you had changed the power steering. Definitely a great
    decision for Karsten to offer both steering options! Interesting that it's
    mostly stock tune. Great work Karsten :)

    I still like the rFuktor 5.0.1 too, especially your tuned 5.0.1. ;) It's a perfect candidate for those who wants a solid all-rounder file that works really well for all types of cars without adjusting the in-game FFB settings all the time between switching cars.

    However, I did some testing today with your rFuktor 4.6-5.0 Delta-S Evo hybrid tune (Primary scrub Plus, to be specific) and I was pleasantly surprised how good it is! Feels very similar to your 5.0.1 tune but with more detail. Your hybrid tune felt really awesome to drive with the Corvette C8R GTE and the McLaren MP4/12. :)

    These are my AMS2 in-game FFB settings I used during my test runs. These should work well with pretty much any car in AMS2 with this hybrid file:

    Gain: 35
    LFB: 10
    FX: 30
    Damping: 20

    In True Drive I didn't change anything, everything is still okay with the TD settings with your hybrid Delta-S Evo tune.

    To prove how good your hybrid Delta-S Evo tune really is, I have set a new world record today at Nordschleife with the McLaren MP4/12 (my first world record after the leaderboard reset). :)

    The leaderboard in AMS2 Time Trial is finally working again after the game update that was released yesterday (V1.3.2.0). Since before Christmas (when the leaderboard was emptied) I've been waiting anxiously to get back to AMS2 Time Trial to set new world record lap times.

    Unfortunetaly after the game update all lap times were wiped out from the leaderboard which means that I lost total of eleven (11) world records I was holding before the leaderboard reset took place. :( I was a bit frustrated about the leaderboard reset but that's all in the past now, it was propably a necessary thing to do. I just hope that Reiza won't do another leaderboard reset ever again.

    Have only just now run some laps post New Year’s Eve update.
    It landed around midnight New Year’s Eve for me and I was way to hung over the next day :D.

    I did a full reset of all settings ( docs folder delete) just to be sure, but there’s definitely something not right with the ffb.
    Using my current go to 5.0.1 file, I now get oscillation at low speed as well as high speed, previously it was only a very high speed issue that was fine because I don’t remove hands at high speed, but it’s now a constant theme.
    while at the same time something just feels a little bit mushy or less direct, but I can’t put my finger on it. :(

    That is odd indeed. As a precaution I did delete only the "tuningsetups" folder inside Documents/Automobilista 2 folder and also I deleted the custom FFB file before running the game after the update was downloaded.

    For me after the update everything feels normal regarding the FFB so I'm confused what has happened to your game.

    However I did tested your 5.0.1 tune afterwards, before that I drove several laps with your hybrid file (that I'm currently using) which felt great for me from the very beginning. I have to admit that now the 5.0.1 file that I was using before your hybrid file didn't feel as good anymore as it did before the update, it had somewhat heavy or "mushy" feeling. So what I did was to put your hybrid file back in and went to the track and the FFB feels great again.

    I'm not sure what's going on here exactly. Is it about just the differences between the 5.0.1 file and the hybrid file or has the latest game update messed the feeling of the 5.0.1 file? Hard to tell really. But your Delta-S Evo hybrid file at least works really well together with the latest game update. :)

    Have done some more testing, and tried some different files.
    I’m not sure what’s been done, but the FFB is broken for me now.
    Feel disconnected from the steering column, it seems laggy or some strange deadzone affecting feel of car balance .
    I can’t enjoy the game in this state :oops:

    I'm wondering now how many people are experiencing the same thing. @Karsten Hvidberg how's the FFB feel to you after the latest V1.3.2.0 game update? As for myself, I cannot complain about the FFB with Kuku's latest hybrid tune (Delta-S Evo).
