    I also drove the V10 for a few laps and it doesn't drive very well. By that I mean simply unrealistic. It feels like it has light traction control and all-wheel drive, and unfortunately it's still much, much too fast. The V12 from 1995 makes a much better impression.

    Hi all. Just got a friend set up on PC with AMS2. He has a Thrustmaster T-GT II wheel. Any recommendations for a custom file and settings?

    FFB seems fine here (without the ffb Launch parameter).
    I'm using the custom file: Kuku's hybrid file - Delta-S Evo (Primary scrub Plus).

    I did enable the Launch parameter (-ffb 600) and could not detect any benefit, no matter the preset (Custom / Default / Default+).

    I'm using the very same custom file as you do. It's been a very good file for me as well this far since last weekend when I started using it for the first time with the latest game update (V1.3.2.0).

    Today I've been using it with the FFB launch parameter (-ffb 600) and while it doesn't do any night and day difference to me it certainly hasn't made it worse either. In my opinion the FFB feels a bit better when the game is launched with the FFB parameter but it also could be some sort of placebo effect in my end.

    I also tested @Alegunner68 's latest file today with the -ffb 600 launch parameter (the second file in Alegunner's post) and it felt much better than the previous Delta-S belt wheel tune that I have used in the past before the V1.3.2.0 update. But even I do like it's robust and heavy feel, I still prefer Kuku's hybrid file - the Delta-S Evo (Primary scrub Plus).

    Either way, like @Dean Ogurek my FFB feels fine too and I certainly hope that rest of the people here has also managed to fix their FFB problems with the launch parameter. :)

    A little bit off-topic again (my apologies!) but I finally reached my ultimate goal which until today I thought would be impossible to do - to be the first person in the world to break the 5 minute barrier at Nordschleife with the McLaren MP4/12. :)

    Wow tUMi's on a roll :) I see what you mean about the @Kuku Maddog 's hybrid rFuktor 4.6-5.0 Delta-S Evo Primary scrub Plus. The front end feeling is so amazing on corner entry, can initiate the slip with precision, this is getting sick guys!

    Yes, I find that on my base I need to use Fanatec damper in addition to the built-in damper in the custom file to avoid oscillations. In fact, the more in-game damper I use, the more oscillations I get...

    Hi easy
    You could try lower engine feel scale. to see if it’s just the engine idle .

    @easy81 You could also try lowering the LFB, or try adjusting the line below until the back and forth wobbling is reduced.
    (centering 0.57)

    @easy81 if the above suggestions haven't helped try adding some damper on your wheel, or raise (center_relax
    I wish we could work on these files without having to exit the sim each time, progress would be so much faster.
    Another thing to try is re-calibrate your wheel.

    hi guys,
    yesterday a gave a try with rfuktor's custom ffb file but the first impression was like if it was lifeless. on the other hand reiza's ffb is too alive :) the cars feel very bouncy..
    what other options are there in terms of custom ffb files ?

    thanks

    Did you try setting the -ffb 600 launch option?

    Yep, exactly. I run my CSL DD on 8Nm with 6 different sims and, except for rFactor2, only in Peak Mode, but between 65 - 75% FFB INGAME ( always 100% at the driver in Fanalab ). If one doesn't believe, use the ingame FFB-meters to check for clipping. In ACC you can see it at the grey bar on the HUD instrument. If you manage to run turns 3 + 4 in Barcelona or T16/17 in Spa at full throttle @ 100% in driver and Ingame, then your FFB meter is almost "white" thanks to the amount of clipping ;-)...IF one wants to change thinks in Peakmode, I would suggest to carefully adjust FOR or DPR in driver settings. In case one uses Fanalab ( link is in the driver software ) , he could try peak but with "Dynamic FFB" enabled. I use this in rFaktor 2 ( at 75-85% ingame, Smoothing 2).
    For AMS2, I use basically the recommended settings from the Fanatec Forum with slight tweaks , 75% gain in the game and ingame settings all 4 other parameters between 0 and 20 max. Anything of FX over 10 let the CSL DD and the wheel begin to vibrate too much. This vibration stays even when you close the sim ! You need to restart the CLS DD to get rid of it.

    Might as well re-calibrate your wheel range and pedals while you're at it.
