    Unbelievable how aggressive some people react. I was just saying my opinion and my experience.
    Stakanov, Stefani and Kuku know what they're doing, unfortunately you don't. Yes, i had a g27 and a t500rs for a long time, and you?? I also know how a real fast car behaves (Audi R8, Porsche 911 gt3, Corvette Z06) street version, and you?? Also you didn't notice that default and default+ have changed since the Update.
    Boy, get me some facts before you try to be Einstein next time .

    @TomP
    What ingame settings do you use for your custom file?

    @Benzaah suggested for the two he linked. Do you think these will also work well for yours?
    100
    Gain 60
    Low force boost 30
    FX 30
    Damping 40

    Thanks

    Just had a looksee in your file.
    Says it all in there too.
    # NAME: Logitech G29 Custom FFB 1.3.3.1 (100/20/85/0)

    EDIT
    That website is pretty thorough! Loads of individual settings for cars.
    Love it!

    Hey Kuku
    Maybe you have time to test something? Rewrite these lines in the file, in front of momentum rack.

    (grip_l (max 0 (- grip_fl (* front_grip_loss_feel (-1 grip_fl)))))
    (grip_r (max 0 (- grip_fr (* front_grip_loss_feel (-1 grip_fr)))))

    And at the rack settings write :

    (front_grip_loss_feel 0.3)

    Now compare the front axle .
    Beautiful day

    Hi Daniel

    I can see the theory , but havent been able to make it work, would need to see a working example with the 5.0.1 base file.

    all the ways I could think to add it in all resulted in not being possible to drive straight line issue, with wheel wanting to swing left or right.

    That is very odd. It only seems to work for me. I also sent the file to other people, but all had the same Problem. It's so good because it connects the front axle to the steering. Too bad it doesn't work. I have no idea why this only works for me

    Interesting, without seeing a complete working file, it’s impossible to pin point why it doesn’t react the same way.

    yes it still acts like its got inverted self alignment with the new code. I cant see anything obvious that would fix that, and its truly bizarre that it doesn't do it for you.

    But with that extra code disabled the file feels pretty good , and I have had fun analyzing some of your values.
    Using my tune as a reference , then adding in some of your values has been enlightening, its always great to see what others come up with and how it can beneficial or detrimental .
    either way your learn more .

    This center set up works very well
    (lfb_slider_strength 1.0)
    (center_full (blend (min 1 (* lfb_slider 2)) 0.01 0.01))

    and after some time to get used to the different back end feel, and retrain the brain ;), I have come to like the disabled Yaw scale.
    It doesn't seem to adversely effect anything and feels more realistic when used with other small adaptions like higher oversteer and understeer scale and also slightly reduce spring steer strength.

    I have settled on this configuration for my personal use tune which I will post below.
    I think this will be a long term stable tune for me.

    The main difference to the way I run the file is I make use of the Damper slider to add holding resistance and friction which helps with balance control and reduces the overcorrection and overbalance moments getting away if the wheel moves too freely, but that can come down to personal taste and driving style and also individual car behavior.

    but thank you for sharing what you have been working on, its been constructive even if there's something not working as hoped.
    :)

    Yes, it' s a shame it doesn't work. This change is very many new possibilites. I was able to improve a lot with it. To feel the front axle and thus the understeer. Slip feeling, road feeling, slide factor, i was able to customize everything with this change. The file I sent you is still without these new changes. I'm sorry for you that it doesn't work. I enjoy this incredibly real ffb , and wish you the best of luck on your journey

    Looked at your file. A little tip.
    (On_off_throttle_feel 0.05) gives unwanted side effects. Better set to 0. And at the end of the file also better to 0 .

    (travel_l (* travel_l (max 0.7 (+ 1 (* on_off_throttle_feel (- (smooth throttle 0.0) (smooth throttle 0.00)))))))
    (travel_r (* travel_r (max 0.7 (+ 1 (* on_off_throttle_feel (- (smooth throttle 0.0) (smooth throttle 0.00)))))))

    Yes I agree it can be invasive , but also don't mind it , if its just set low enough to not cut loading feel mid corner.

    Your yaw values are certainly good. I do that with the motion, but will test it.
    Thank you

    Yes, unfortunately the file only works for me. You can hide the 3 files with #
    If you have a dd1/2 i eliminated the vibrations and the swinging

    Hi,
    I am using an OSW Simucube V1 with the small Mige. Is there any good setup for that configuration? I am very new to the game and so far only used the ingame settings but not very happy with it.

    I have a CSW 2.5 base and it does the same to me. Undriveable unfortunately.
