Automobilista 2 Custom Force Feedback - Overview & Recommendations

Been having a somewhat good time with DanielKarts V300 on the logi DD pro wheel but ever since 1.5 i have not been playing much.

Reason is i can't feel the buildup on the suspension when cornering witch helps me judge Gs and my grip limit.

No matter what custom i try or default / + , That feeling of build up when cornering is gone. I hope that is what they are working on for next update.

Anyone know some good settings to mess with in the file to cure this?
V300 feels so good for the most part, just that little bit is missing for me

 

test, test, test that's the secret. Find the best settings for you personally. For me personally, this final step was the V400. In my opinion, the customs files are in a very advanced state and are no longer in a testing phase. The rabbit hole I keep saying is no longer there for me. The rest is personal taste, which can of course vary greatly and no one can tell you that. That's why my advice for you is: Make your own experiences with your base and your hardware and your preferred file with lots of testing

 

DanielKart is right. Besides the improved ffb results, bettering our understanding of what defines our taste in ffb through testing and how to achieve it, is greatly enhanced. From that point on, tuning to our preferred ffb in any title becomes much easier.

 

Oversteer/Understeer is the first setting I tweak and seems to reasonably fit the description.

 

This is a very important and good point you raise. I see a lot of people with the best and most expensive bases or the best hardware. But still, they invest very little or no time in this hardware. Or they copy everything from self-proclaimed “big YouTubers” and believe they are doing everything right. But people who deal with it and invest time in it will, in my opinion, achieve the best results

 

FullFFB - New Version​

What's new:

• Improved lateral forces (including those caused by crashs or bumps)
• Improved vertical forces feeling
• Improved kerb feeling
• Improved offtrack feeling
• Improved scrub effects
• Improved engine effects
• Retouched gyro forces
• Reduced (not eliminated) wheel hands-off oscilations
• Removed both kerb and offtrack (canned) enhancements

Still to improve/implement:

• Bottoming out effect, to be on a par with sound fx. Depends on Reiza, but expected to come
• ABS/TC effects, perhaps? Reiza..?
• Oscillations, hands-off the wheel (doesn't affect driving)

 

Just tried this and wanted to say a huge thanks, great job!! It works extremely well for me and my SC2 pro. Love it.

 

Oi @Joaquim Pereira thanks for your file, coming back to simracing after a year due to breaking my leg and I am trying to recreate a good FFB feeling on a newly bought Moza R9, I see you also recently got a R12. Would you mind sharing your pithouse .json preset if it's not too much trouble. I can adapt it to the R9 for a good starting point. Or are you using any default one?

Thanks and have a great day

 

Hi,
where can I find it V300? And what do you use in fanatec settings?
Thanks

Danielkart...you are so very lucky to live in Switzerland. I've never been there, but in my opinion, it is absolutely the most beautiful country on the planet!!! Also, thanks very much for all your hard work on FFB in AMS2...

 

Hey Harvey!
Thank you for your kind words . I think the best place is always where you were born and have your family and friends. But yes, I am grateful that I live in a democratic country where the people can still accept or reject laws. Of course, there are good things and not so good things here, just like in every country. Greetings

 

This!

 

I live in the uk and the past few years had me thinking about getting out.
It's not the same place anymore due to various reasons (inept, useless government doesn't help). Jumping into Ams2 helps immensely..
I travel abroad most summers on my Guzzi, mostly France but Switzerland is on my bucket list. Roads are so quiet away from the uk.

 

Yes, a lot has gone wrong in Britain and still does. It's sad to see how an entire country can get into such trouble because of incompetent governments. It's a blessing that Switzerland is not in the EU and the people have decided that way.
Yes, buddy, once you come to Switzerland you will be amazed by our mountain roads. But be careful not to go too fast otherwise it will be expensive with us

 

Quick heads up fanatec dd2 799. Blimey

 

Hi, thanks.
I just use the default one - go neutral on everything, no damping, no friction , no nothing - just max torque to your liking (I still find no reason to go beyond 65% )

 

Thanks a lot, I am sure with the R12 65% is already plenty
Very similar to the settings I use in pithouse actually, only big difference we have is the Max Wheel Speed which I have at just 10%. Will play a bit with it tomorrow since now is quite late here, still trying to find that sweet spot with FFB.

 

Even at this low price I wouldn't buy a dd1/dd2

 

Good morning all,

just recently moved house and getting set up again after a good few months not racing.

quick question…… I have a thrustmaster ts-xw so can anyone recommend a good custom file for me please?

thanks in advance
