Automobilista 2 Custom Force Feedback - Overview & Recommendations

For those using SC2 wheelbases, please share which FFB profile and associated settings (in-game and True Drive) you end up using after these most recent updates. Sadly, I’m out of town and can’t test/tune at the moment

 

@Dean Ogurek

Had a play around there and to be honest I don't think there's been a massive change between 1.3 and 1.3.0.1

What I would say though is that the variation in ffb from one car to another is much more noticeable since 1.3 Some cars feel far meatier like the 190E and some feel featherlight in comparison to pre 1.3 like the GT1 Porsche for example. The C9 which I've driven a lot lately feels less informative in terms of the features you described than it did previously with the custom file.

On top of that I think that some of the drive train stuff that's been implemented is more apparent in default+ than it is currently in the custom files. One combination where this is quite obvious is the Roco 001 at Nurburgring. Try it out with only gain dialed in and then switch between custom and default+ there's a big difference especially at low speed.

Anyway just my take on things currently, could be imagining it all of course.

 

Thanks! For a t300, is it now recommended to use default+ and not one of these custom ones here? I have no problem either way... just curious what the more experienced racers feel and use as they no more on the proper feel and what might help lap times based on what you should be able to feel.

Thanks,
Doug

 

Oops my bad
Small bug found in primary scrub file in zip above. have fixed that up and added a extra + version with less smoothing and stronger details while im at it.
Please re-download zip file.

 

delete.sry.

 

I did notice a small decrease in the surface texture/scrub/tear effects after 1301.1894, so I assume it's due to a revision in the tire model, and I just added one click of FX to bring it back to where it was before.

 

Just curious, have you tested with latest update? Is the file in the Zip still a valid base file to edit from? Sorry, just unclear how latest updates have impacted custom FFB files, if at all.

 

All custom profiles are still good. Nothing changed in the physics or how they are handled. Just the drivelines themselves. If there are changes that don’t agree with you then it is mostly due to the way cars now handle and not the ffb.

 

I was liking Default+ at gain 65-70, 0 LFB, 50 FX, 0 Damper; then I went back to Silver Raw rFuktor 4.6 at 70-75 Gain, 0, 50, 0; then back again
The Default+ makes the tyre and suspension feel and feedback almost rubbery (which is good for tyres I guess) and quite extreme - swingy - like the car deciding too much where it wanted to go - quite good fun but harder to control - too rubbery for my taste in the modern stock car for example.
The rFuktor 4.6 can feel a little more, um, not grainy, but 'bumpy' (the curbs and scrub are more noticeable and the whole control feels tighter and I am more in control. I can still feel what the car is doing and wants to do and catch and control slides. Less 'showy' FFB but more functional. Feels like I am driving on a track rather than a water bed.
I think I'm running my CSL Elite at 90 or 95 FFB, For 100, Brf 70, Dri -02 for both.

 

Hi everyone! I'm not a good simdriver and I drive mainly for fun. This evening I tried the below T300RS GT settings with the new update 1.3 and I want to share them with all you because I'm quite satisfy of them after many trials on previous AMS2 versions.

I'm also curious what are the feedbacks of some of you, in order to understand if my feelings are something right or wrong.

Thanks in advance to everyone who will try them.

 

Hello,

First time posting.

I've spent the last few nights adjusting a custom FFB file i found on here. The adjustment I've made are to suit the CSL DD and obviously my taste. My question is an I allowed to share it here for other to try and hopefully improve.

I Don't won't to take credit for other people hard work.

Thanks to all that have put in the time making these files so far.

 

Absolutely

 

@Mark_Redman 100%.

I would add that it is greatly appreciated if it's based off rFuktor, that it keeps that name and then the tune name after a dash, something like:
"rFuktor-tunename xx.yy".
Also to keep the original credentials inside but add "tuned by: XXX, YYY,..." if it is value changes, or "modded by: XXX, YYY,..." if it contains actual modifications to code.

Other than appreciation it helps other people understand what it is.



Thank you,

-K

 

Thanks

It is an rFuktor base file that I have altered values only.

So the tunename would be the original file I downloaded?

That's exactly what I wanted to know, I don't want to pass any of this my own work and I wasn't sure of the protocol. do I just post it in this thread?

Cheers
Mark

 

Yeah, post as you like anywhere.
Reg. a tune on tune I am not sure.
But remember it is just appreciation, please feel free to do as you like

Best,

-K

 

I'm sorry I realized now to have wrongly posted this post in the "custom force feedback recommendations". Probably the right place was in this section Automobilista 2 Force Feedback - Overview & Recommendations

 

This was posted on the V1.3.0.0 RELEASED news forum, which is really useful and would explain why I was getting a boaty feeling with damper 0. I'm going to try again with Damper 50 and work back to where feels good (NB: this relates to Default+ only):

where do i install the file AMS2 custom FFB.ini ?

 

Refer to the first page of this thread for instructions and links.

 

except the custom file has damper built into file .
the damping slider is used for a different function ( power steering), so works opposite.
