    I have tried a custom file (V80). However, For me, I like Default+ better. The file says that you should set FEI to 20% and disable INT. Fanatec recommendations say that you should not set FEI below 70-80%, because the latency suffers. For the smoothing of the FFB, the INT filter is more suitable.

    My Fanatec settings are almost identical except for FEI.

    Fanatecs recommendation is correct. FEI 20 is a very bad setting which kills a lot of FFB detail completely and also introduces a lot of latency and surely should not be used. Better run a higher INT setting to smooth things out but leave FEI at 70 or above.

    Man, many thanks for this pack. I have real troubles looking through 330 forum pages for profiles, this one is awesome help.

    And of course billion +1 thanks to every custom ffb file maker here. And get well soon Daniel.

    Get well soon Daniel as you have played a huge roll in mine and many others enjoyment of AMS2.

    I am happy to say that there is not a huge difference between V80 and Default. This is a good thing as Reiza now has a very solid default FFB once you get it dialed in. I do think the default needs to have the kerbs strikes dialed down a bit more. Great work as always Daniel!

    Your in game gain is wayyy too high so you're no doubt clipping like mad and getting little to no information I would imagine. Start at 40 or so and work your way up.

    But at gain = 40 or even 70 I feel very low FFB. On AMS2 FFB=90 (and in Wheel =100) I feel good but not strong FFB, feels like 2-3 nm force. As Comparison: I came from ACC, there I had FFB that was even stronger than now on 90 and there was no clipping at all.
    Strange too is, that the default+ FFB profile is MUCH MUCH stronger than this custom file. default+ on gain =50 feels 3 times so strong than gain =90 in custom file. Is this normal or is something completely wrong perhaps?

    2nd question:
    Do these custom FFB-files, including v80, have more details or informations that are in default(+) profile completely missing, or is it all only a question about optimising the balance between all the values?

    They change certain values and add or remove some things (sort of)

    Default+ should give more info than default so the FFB might be stronger, but I’ve never heard of that before

    We need to know which custom file you are using, ( should start with the original 5.0.1.3 from page one as a base )

    have you installed it into your my documents ams2 folder ?
    Have you selected custom ffb profile in game ? And what are your settings ?

    Hi guys! Since the new update i started to play again and the game feels different (in a very nice way) but i´m strugguling to make a good configuration with the FFB and i don´t really know where to start. I know that maybe this thread is for a bit more advanced tweaking in FFB but i could you use a little bit of help. I have a T300RS and now im with a 95 (gain)/13(lffb)/85(FX)/0(damp) config with the default FFB file, no custom. Thanks again guys! :)

    From the information you gave it seems like your gain and fx are a bit too high.

    I'm not sure the FX are too high. I'm running 90% FX (Default+) with good results although, I also have in-game Damping at 55%. I believe the high Gain setting could be an issue with clipping (in some cases), though.
