Automobilista 2 Custom Force Feedback - Overview & Recommendations

Thats a matter of opinion, and only you can decide which is best for you. I would recommend looking back over the last few pages and try any of the ones you see there.

Whichever you try I suggest spending a good amount of time with each one and dial in your settings, before trying another. It is also a good idea to make notes about each file so that you can compare later.

 

When I had G29 I used this file. This is a basic profile (default custom file) with few extra functions (relative, compressor, scoop, tighten) to improve the shortcomings (deadzone, force balance, rattling) of the steering wheel.

In game settings are GAIN 100, LFB 15, fx and damping does not matter (not used in basic profile).
As I remmember I used 1% centering spring in logitech software.

 

@Joaquim Pereira is it your recommendation to set the wheel base to linear with your v9 custom not peak?

 

Is it just my impression or the default and default+ changes it’s feeling with different custom files, on my side it’s what it feels, also when using the ffb custom file from reiza my wheel clips it’s ffb in game but the base it’s only using 6 to 7nm. My base is the Logitech pro, and in game I use 100% gain and other settings at 0.

 

May i ask where i can get this ffb profile "Manolo & Stakanov 05 ATMOS - MOD V1.4 FIX."?

Best regards,
Manuel

 

Hi..May i ask you where i can get this file:

ffb: Manolo & Stakanov 05 ATMOS - MOD V1.4 FIX.

 

Id like to test this file also (im using the same wheel base). Where can i get it? Do you mind sharing your file?

 

Knock yourself out: Automobilista 2 Custom Force Feedback - Overview & Recommendations

 

Hi all. Reaching out to any Thrustmaster TX users. With AMS2 1.5 is there a good baseline or start that I should dial TM Control Panel and in-game my settings into? I’ve tried looking through the forums but tbh it’s so overwhelming! There’s so much history and of course opinions. I do see mentions of other Thrustmaster bases which makes it more confusing. Any pointers or guidance from TX users who are loving AMS2 with their dialed-in settings would be thoroughly appreciated!

 

Hello Mr Manolo
May i ask you where i can find the FFB File in your signature?

"FILE Custom: rFuktor 5.0.1.4 "ATMOS MOD v.1.5.4.7" by Stakanov based on rFuktor 5.0.1.3/4 + Reiza Immersive"

 

Your Custom FFB File Collection

 

Hi..Which of those files it the right one. I cannot find ths one "FILE Custom: rFuktor 5.0.1.4 "ATMOS MOD v.1.5.4.7" by Stakanov based on rFuktor 5.0.1.3/4 + Reiza Immersive"

 

Opinions vary largely in every little aspect regarding FFB, here is mine:
The very first thing to do is apply Quasi Default config at TM Control Panel (see fig). And assure your wheel is correctly calibrated in game. Those are fundamental.
Then you can test Default and Default+, they are really good, but if you want even more details, run a Custom. There are many I like, including the more recent versions of (in alphabetical order) Allegunner68, Danielkart, Joaquim Pereira and Kuku. And no, you don't need any specific Custom TM-TX file. Very important to note that each Custom adopt specific ingame settings at FFB config, wich are present in the file header.

 

Thought I would share my modified file I use with my T300. It is based on rFuktor 5.0.1.4 by Karsten with Shadak & Panos.
Tried to make it give me as much information as possible with my low end wheel.
When using the brakes you will feel the car want to pull straight ahead, the harder you brake or the higher you set brake pressure will increase the effect.
Tyre scrub increase as you turn harder, the wheel will get gradually lighter as the grip decreases when cornering.
Good feeling of the rear losing grip.
Open the file in notepad to see the settings I use, and created the file using.

 

It doesn't look like @Manolo has posted in the forums in 2024; I can't say with certainty what his most current, personalized and optimized tune might be ... that being said, there are numerous excellent files out there.

BTW, I updated The Collection to include Brock Harvey's various T300 tunes, update @Dud's file, and confirm @TomP's G29 file was identical to what was already included.

 

I don't know what that means in Fanatec terminology, can't help much .

 

You have several stages where you can change "gain" settings, you want none of them to produce clipping. Your wheel base should then use that value (with a max of 100%) and output it with the max strength you want - I have my wheelbase set at 75% max torque, so it will produce that amount WHEN the input is 100%. If the game sends 75%, them the real output of my wheelbase will be 75%*75% = 56% (about half it's max torque).

In game you have vehicle-specific gain (can differ from car to car) and the 'normal' gain setting (valid for all cars).
Those two cannot produce clipping (output >100%, the red bar in histogram). If that happens, you wheelbase will produce your max desirable torque (you said 6-7Nm) for that amount of time. It's not bad if it lasts a few ms (breif moment in time) and that is a road/kerb/car/wall impact. It should not happen to a point you start to feel your wheel is producing a constant torque throughout that high speed turn (the wheel no longer showing you track/kerb details).

 

Linear makes peaks and dips smaller whilst peak lets certain effects be huge

 

I have a Moza R5 and went with 85%. Works great! Have you shared your Moza pit house settings? Thanks for all your work on the FFB. It changes the game.

 

Interested in what FFB settings most Fanatec CSL DD 8NM users are using in AMS2.
Love driving GT1, M1 Procar & Porsche Cup cars in AMS2.
Am only new to sim racing, but so far found Default+ with 70 Gain, all other settings 0, most likeable. Have tried a custom file from this forum, but didn't find it better.
Was mainly trying to improve the Formula vehicle handling in AMS2, they seem less realistic compared to AC. AMS2 Formula cars front wheels seem to hover over the road, not quite connected like in AC.
