Automobilista 2 Custom Force Feedback - Overview & Recommendations

I'm using the CSW 2.0. My in game settings line up with yours, but my wheel settings I don't have the FEI setting, not sure what that is or does, must be something added to newer wheels.

 

Dear good Sir, your custom FFB file is very outdated. A lot of things have changed since that NuScorpii file was released. There are plenty of good options available here. The newest versions are all superb ;-)

 

Guys help please..
I have fixed my preferred wheel (Fanatec CSW V2.5 with universal hub with the most common wheel) and as it's bigger (wider, more diameter, or how you would like to say) I feel FFB much lighter, I have FFB at the wheel 100%, Game 100% dampening 0%, but still want t bit more strength. What I could change to make it stronger?

Thanks!

 

I think you will have to post your fanatec settings, as maybe something's hiding there and somebody might be able to help.

Otherwise:
- Which custom file are you using, if any?
- Are you lacking strength everywhere(both at center & cornering)? Or only in the center?
If it's everywhere and you need more strength I'm afraid you will need a stronger wheelbase.
If it's the center mostly, then try adjusting in-game lfb up a little(not sure what you have it at now).

Btw, on high end wheel bases you should try and have in-game gain set as low as possible & def. not at 100%. This gives more range for the FFB to work with, so for example downforce & cornering will feel better.

 

Yeah there must be something wrong, perhaps driver wise? If I use your settings then I probably need 3 man to be able to turn the wheel.

 

use fanalab

 

Hey guys, I need a little input from the custom ffb file experts.

I somewhat enjoy the default ffb, tho there are something's things I don't and was wondering if and or what lines in the custom default I could adjust or add?

Bumps....I find them far too sharp, how can I soften them.

Engine rpm buzz...how can I reduce them without losing the tire scrub.

Increase front load under braking
Increase lateral tire grip mid corner

Thrust master TX servo base with rally mod rim
Thrustmaster CP all 100%
With lastest driver and firmware

In-game
Gain 65
LFB 30
FX 55
Dampening 0

 

Here goes the info:
CSW V2.5 (PC driver 402, Wheel Base Firmware 684, wheel Base Motor Firmware 22)
Sen = auto
FF = 100
DRI = -02
FEI = 100
FOR = 100

THANKS!!!!!

 

Independentely from the size of the rim diameter, I honestly think that if everything would BE ok with the wheel base and the game .. you d BE feeling your Driving like Driving an 18 wheeler ... Tried deleting the Automobilista 2 folder on You documents???

 

Nope... never try that...

FFB is not like a 18 wheeler... but I want more gain, or strengh about 25% more... like this I can play? Yes I can, do I have FFB? Yes, but it feels like driving my Toyota 4Runner (well.. could it be like a 18wheeler...)

Delete the folder, restart the PC and restart the game? (OF COURSE REMEMBER WHAT THINGS I HAVE CHANGE LIKE VR SETTINGS AND THE FF FILE)

 

At least. In some of the here reported FFB issues it solved them....

 

Can anyone point me to some baseline Fatantec and ingame settings for a DD1? I went back 10 pages in this thread, didn't help. I tried using the search and got "The search could not be completed because the search keywords were too short, too long, or too common."

A monster thread like this is really hard to digest. Thanks in advance.

 

Hi man!....you did a wrong decision getting bigger rim on same wheel base....because your hands will do more torque VS base torque....your ratio torque is more weak now. I suggest you getting a direct drive or come back old rim again.

 

I would nt consider that a wrong/bad decision... he simply need to be ready to adapt.. nothing else... and probably that way the torque given by the rim is more realistic, then the one he was used to deal with...

 

Hi all
A bit late to the party.
But have adapted to 4.6 with a mild tune.
I have brought over some smoothing values from earlier versions to reduce sharp bump and kerbs that where a little too jolty and crisp for me.

Also have made a change/ reduction to acceleration feel, as I been struggling with the wheel pulling quite hard either direction with some of the high torque cars for some time , cars like the v8 supercar and group C where a nightmare to control even with wheel straight. This change has helped considerably and hasn't taken the feel of throttle steer away too much, all cars just feel more planted with less throttle anxiety

 

Liking your file @LE GAULOIS , just added a few tweaks myself.
Gain 60 odd.
Lfb 0.
Fx 60
Damping 0.

 

Hello nice people!

Didn't work, I remember with PC2 an I could change a value in the custom FFB file and all set... but with PC2 there is nothing similar. If I set to the "in-game" setting, for me at 70% is fine, but with the custom, need more than 100% weird.

Hello mate! long story short, I have this rim and the formula V2 Carbon, I have used it with AC, KartKraft (really strong FFB there I drive DD2 karts and they are very similar), ACC (nope, there I use the Formula V2), AC and PC2, with PC2 I have the FFB at 80%. This only happened with the custom FFB file, with the "in-game" file there is no problem, much stronger FFB with 70%, but with the custom, I think it should be something like 130%. I did the same with PC2, change a value in the custom file, but no clue what I could change in this one.

I really think there is something wrong with my file/game/setup / or something, with the Formula V2, that is smaller, at 100% is almost fine, but with the wider one of the Universal hub, physics do their job and it feels too weak.

Have to say that I usually drive DD2 karts and years ago I have driven some old F3 cars, those 2 have very hard steering, and the CSW V2.5 is capable of giving the same FFB strength.
If I use the "in-game" setup, 70% and sometimes 80% is enough, but with the custom file, need more. As I said before, something similar happened to me with PC2, I was advised to change one of the values and all set.

Do I like a bit more FFB than most of you? Probably, I'm deformed by my experience with karts and old F3... That much that the CSW V2.5 is not capable? nope, no problem with the other games...

If someone knows what value I could change to make this stronger I would appreciate it, the experience is good, I'm impressed with this game but is like when you are hearing a great song and want more volume, and you cant have it hahaha

Have a great day!!

 

Enabling the HUD and looking at the ffb output bars, do you clip a lot when running the Default?

Running the custom, does it go to the top bar, close to 100% ffb output or much lower?

 

Stupid question, but how I can do that?
Using Oculus Rift cant find those HUD options. Sorry mate, can you help me with that (is a bit off topic)

 

Hey man, change your FOR to 120, that will firm it up quite a bit
