    Any changes for a T300 you would make?

    Hello BobS! Unfortunately I can't say anything about that because I don't have this base. Try the different Customs, whether mine or other Customs, and choose what you like best:)

    Hello, everyone! Thanks to the big and ingenious tire update from Reiza, I was able to improve my custom again. For me personally it is now a "final" custom file that I will leave as it is. Of course it can be changed according to personal taste and depending on the base. The file is based on the 5.01 , but I've tried to integrate and combine the best of Karsten Hivdberg, the best of Karsten's fantastic physics. The biggest change is the static_force adjustment and the hiding of the exp_static_force values. But also other adjustments which led to positive changes. The steering has now become even more direct and smooth (homogeneous). The stability (chassis) has again improved greatly. The front axle can be felt very well and the loss of grip on the curbs can now be felt very well. Sliding has also been reduced. I wish you a lot of fun and enjoy this wonderful simulation whether with my custom or another, Reiza deserves it. Nice time for you all:)

    I've been running the v38 on my TSPC and that was feeling great! V40 didn't quite hit the mark for me but this v42 is the one lol! Slightly tighter feel for me than 38 which is how I like it now Danielson please stop there :D

    Thanks for the hard work, very much appreciated. Just wondering what you mean by "sliding is reduced"
    Thanks

    FFB feels off to me after most recent update: The speed scaling is too drastic with all profiles now it seems. At slow speeds, there is almost no resistance felt at the wheel, and then high speeds resistance picks up a lot. Anyone else notice this?

    I haven't tested the default+ ffb lately however, I find the (perceived?) increase in ffb dynamic range to be excellent when using the custom ffb profile. It feels more natural, and the upper range of resistance allows for a greater sense of grip-loss / adhesion near the limit. It may be as close to rF2 ffb as can be achieved, imo.

    Part of the reason the current ffb works well for me may be that I use a good amount of Friction (wheel driver setting) to establish a "baseline resistance" where the steering weight is already lending itself to a more natural result.

    Also, I use about 45% Damping (AMS2-ffb).

    Absolutely no problems for me. Maybe you should delete the setup profiles and start again. Or maybe check your base settings

    Thanks for the responses! I will delete the AMS2 folder and start anew. @Dean Ogurek @sdubbin, when you get a chance, would you both please share your full True Drive settings, AMS2 in-game settings, and the custom profile you are using? It would be great to have a starting point to work from. @Danielkart I can't recall which wheelbase you have, but if you have an SC2, I would love to know your True Drive settings and in-game settings as well (I believe I have your latest custom file already...unless you've updated and not posted yet).

    Hello Chip! No, I own a Fanatec dd1 and you can find my in-game and base settings right at the beginning of the custom file. You can find my custom on page 272. It will remain the V42 because it works excellently, I only react to updates or if Karsten will bring new physics again. I think Dean can certainly help you with the base settings because he also has a Simucube. Beautiful day

    See TD settings image attached.

    AMS2 ffb:
    • Gain: 60%
    • LFB: 0-5%
    • FX: to Preference
    • Damping: 45%
    Current Custom ffb version: by Stakanov - ATMOS 4.1 v1.3.2 (without yaw)
    I did make a couple of minor tweaks to this version, and I believe there is a newer version available from him, as well.

    Out of interest, whats the thinking behind the 1270 steering range in TD, I've always had mine set at 900, assumed that was the 'normal'

    Not sure tbh, just based on a recommendation and it seems to work fine. I suspect it may be suited to work better with the big "Trucks".

    Hello i was little while off ams2.
    What custom ffb for TS-PC is aktuell a good choice? I prefer the feeling like in rFactor 2.

    Good evening @Danielkart - I'm intrigued what are these settings

    # Dynamic FFB:
    # Speed Sensitive: Enable
    # Speed Threshold: 220
    # Speed Threshold max: 340
    # Damper Effect Range: 90
    # Damper Effect Strength: 5

    Anyone with Fanatec DD1 wheel can contact me in private, please? Thank you!

    Good evening! If you have a Fanatec base you can use Fanalab. These values can be set there if you wish. Regards
