    Hi! I think I tested it in Spielberg and Monza, for sure it has to do with track surface, maybe I can try to play with road sensitivity as well, while I wait for the V6. Thanks!

    I'll post a new version soon enough as it represents a departure from previous version.

    Although in my small test I didn't find anything strange per si (I've tried in Road America where F-USA 23 seems to be even harder), keep in mind high downforce cars are usually much more harsh/hard on steering wheel than even a GT3.
    Although my new file totally dumps a section that amplifies the diference between grip in front wheel, this still happens because I'll capture front axle load changes instead - and the road texture will induce that (the wheels get fast grip/load changes due to the surface been damaged by constant breaking forces).

    Try to cancel these lines (v5):
    Code:
    # wheels slide difference amplification
    (front_slide_delta (* (/ (- FL_slide FR_slide) 8) brake))
    (rack_coarse_lfb (+ rack_coarse_lfb (smooth front_slide_delta 0.02)))

    I don't know if it's possible. But would it be an idea to add your Simecube settings as a profile in the True Drive software, where we can download it? :)

    Hello Rivanov!
    I'll just post it here in Reiza's custom forum because I think it makes the most sense here. Not even in the Racedepartment or other forums. Plus, the guys in the Simucube “Truedrive” are faster than me old man :D V400 was already there and I think someone will release V500 there soon. My personal settings are also visible in the file;)

    Is there a way to edit the force feedback on a controller/ gamepad? I’ve tried using a couple of profiles and not felt any difference. I’m struggling to feel the car slipping and oversteering.

    I'm using a T150 using recommended settings and the centre of the wheel is too heavy for me even at low speeds. How can i remedy this?

    Try higher files and it will be easier
    The higher the custom file number, the lighter the forces become. The deeper the custom file number, the stronger the forces become. So #1 works with the strongest forces and #8 works with the lowest. I'll post it as an addendum

    Hi Daniel,

    now I have to ask again as a precaution. I am looking for the correct file for the Logitech G Pro Wheel with a maximum of 11NM. I have to use version 5, right?

    As an example similar to the "For Simagic Alpha Mini 10Nm"?

    Thank you, Thomas

    Version 5 seems to have too little power, because I have to set the FFB in the base (11NM) and in-game to 100%.

    And which damper settings do you recommend if the steering wheel starts to oscillate, especially at high speeds? The damper is currently set to 0 ingame.

    Hi Zebra. I posted in September a file for T818 but after many hours and tests (3 months of tests every day since my last post ... :) here is my new file i drive with , regarding the T818. I am very happy with it. I know Daniel has sent several files for different bases that i didn't tested yet but mine is very immersive :) You can test and tell me. Cheeers

    Hello!
    Always test the recommended version number first. If it is too strong for you then go a file number higher or even two. If it's too weak for you then go a file number lower or even two. It's always a question of how the base processes the energy and also personal taste.

    You have vibrations because you use 100% gain in the game. Do not take any dämping . Go back with file Nr.

    Okay, then I think I've understood it. I have now taken number 4 and only set the FFB to 90% ingame. The oscillation is almost completely gone. I've also set the dampers to 0 in the wheel and in-game and it drives great.

    Many thanks for your files and support. Have a nice evening.

    Hi! Could you share your ingame settings/wheel base settings please?

    Edit:found them in the file, though your settings are turned up way to high, the wheel is very strong and I feel like I could break my wrist playing with those

    Hi @Danielkart ,
    I am running a Fanatec DD1, and have used your file #8 (16 to 18Nm)

    Im pretty inexperienced with tweaking FFB.
    It feels very good, however just a question. Is there a reason why FEI is set relatively low (20%-30%)?
    Is it not better to turn this up to gain more ffb detail?

    Thanks!
    Paul

    Good morning!
    Before Simucube 2 I had a dd1. There are many reasons why (FEI) was set so low for me on a dd1 in combination with (Int). There were also countless discussions about it that didn't achieve much in the end. Take your preferred settings from the base if you don't have a good feeling about it, if the feeling is good then there is no reason to change it:)
