Automobilista 2 Custom Force Feedback - Overview & Recommendations

Hi @Karsten Hvidberg just trying your new v2.6 and while it feels great overall, I'm getting little to no ffb on left hand corners - just the bungee type effect. Only tested at brands. Any clues as to why?

 

That's really weird
Which car type?

I just raced with it, P1, no issues, maybe a bug that just did not manifest for me, for some reason... Or maybe my hands just did not pick it up...

I will take a look a little later when my time allows.
Just to rule it out completely, did you change anything in the file?

If you are on beta version it might be the weird custom ffb file bug that kills random variables that has changed slightly, which version are you running?
If that is the case it might help to add in an additional line:

(grip_fr 0.0)
Right under the existing line that reads:
(grip_fl 0.0)......

Cheers

 

I just testet it and it feels very nice.Nothing, what i miss.

 

No change, sadly. Tested with f309 and super v8.
Running original file and beta 9.6, seems there's clipping going on somehow. Silver raw 1.2 and the latest heavy messing work ok.

 

Ok, made clip using the V8 too, which was easy enough, but not the F309. Seems like you're simply faster than I am

Hope this file helps you, if not there are a few values you can change, so just let me know.

Cheers

Custom ffb file "Silver Raw v2.7 - Momentum Rack 2.0" attached:
(updated file here)

 

That's helped, can feel the scrub now, the other details not so much.
Probably best to leave it until V1.0 is released as we haven't got long to wait now, then you can see for yourself what needs changing (or not!).
Thanks for your help.

 

Heh, yes, no worries, I'm only tweaking details, nothing much.

If you need more details you can lower the gain to keep more distance to the max force. That'll help right away.

Cheers!

 

@Alegunner68 ,

Well, now I had to just tweak it slightly better, since it was bothering me
Updated the file in-place in the post from before just now, so download it again if you'd like.

Cheers

 

Thx Aza340 this is the best so far for T300rs!

 

Funny, I updated yesterday, but I'm still showing the old Firmware. 30.00. When I check again, it says I have the latest. I do have a T300. Something updated, but it wasn't the firmware. I had to reset all my parameters after the update though.

 

Good isn't it !! Hope it still works ok with v1.0 when that drops today .
Also Karstens silver raw 2.5 feels equally good to me , little lighter but still informative .

 

Yes works ok with v1.0 ... but I tried a little because yesterday in Italy was late at night when the update arrived ... I deleted the entire Automobilista2 document folder ... I fixed everything I tried the ffb defeault profile for a very short time (I noticed few changes from the EA version 0.9.7.0 ) and I immediately put into operation the custom version of F.Santos ... v.1.0 ... everything seemed as before

Then I realized that I hadn't clicked the reset to default ... so later I'll try more carefully especially the default profile ... but the modified version should work as before...

 

Quick update for v1.0.
Still losing most/all ffb when turning left! I even feel it when turning left and right on a straight, really intriguing i just don't get it.
Still getting full ffb on v1.2 and Nuscorps latest so I'm completely baffled by this.
I'd really like to get to the bottom of this as the road feel and right handers feel great. Funny how it only seems to be me that's affected..

 

what ingame settings you use with the g29

 

Hey Alegunner,

That's just weird
Does it help to go lower on "gain"?
Just to understand if it IS some weird clipping issue or not...

Cheers

 

I'm no expert but have tried almost every custom file so far !
New default ffb on my G920 is pretty good actually , really like the weight and momentum feel but still think it's lacking in kerb and scrub feel .
Will probably stick to Silver raw 2.8 or silver Santos file for the moment .

 

So, while I was absolutely thrilled with the FFB with Karsten and NuScorpii's latest files, with the latest version of Heavy Messing, I was not getting the same results with the v1.0 update last night on my T300. There's now a strong centering effect and tightening under heavy lateral loads that was really problematic in the GT4 Ginetta and 2020 Stock Cars especially, and I practically got zero tightening of the wheel under braking - none of this was a problem prior to the update. I tried the v1.0 Default and found that these exact same problems were there as well. Will try Karsten's file the next time I get back on the track.

I tried rebooting my PC and my Thrustmaster drivers several times, but I always found the exact same issues. I did the usual folder deletion right from the start too. If nobody else is having these issues, I think I might have had an updated problem. It showed that it updated, but then restarted the update a second time. It stayed at 100% downloaded for like 5 minutes and then locked up for probably another 10 minutes completing the install. I'm thinking a fresh game installation might be needed on my end.

 

Nope, tried that, feels exactly like clipping, but why only on left hand turns?
When you get a chance try the lotus 72e around spielberg 1974, highlights the issue for me there.

 

@Karsten Hvidberg & @NuScorpii

Hey guys, I have zero experience with custom ffb files. I am fairly happy with the default settings atm, tho there are 2 areas I'd like to tweak if possible and hoping one of you could tell me which lines to play with.
1. Braking feel...I find the current default very flat and gives zero detail of front load or initial bite under braking.
2. How to lower or eliminate the engine revs.

Wheel: TM T300 TX

even in 1.0 the Silver Raw 1.2 file remains the best for me.
because again reiza makes us a bad ffb but no sensation at the brakes
