Automobilista 2 Force Feedback Overview & Recommendations

Of course ! Been using these for more than 3 years now and it has always been perfect even with the physics changes for 1.6, still works perfectly.

 

Anyone has the Fanatec DD+ wheelbase mind to share their Fanalab settings and in game setting would be much appreciated.

 

The oval and non-oval variants are like two different cars in the game. So, to confirm, take the same car to a different oval and try a different car from the same class at the same tracks (oval and non-oval). Then, you can pin down if the problem is the specific car or something to do with the ovals.

 

@Marc Collins collins When I get back from work I will confirm. However, I will say I did try multiple cars on the same oval. And it was only the one in the video that was giving me grief.

 

FWIW, here are the in-game wheelbase presets (Gain/LFB/FX/Damping/Menu) as currently provided by Reiza in AMS2:

I misled you, slightly. There are three versions of each of these F-USA cars, not two. The problem is with the "Superspeedway" version of the particular Lola and it will do the same bad behaviour at any Superspeedway. It works fine at "Speedways" (smaller ovals) and road courses. The custom skin you are using does not affect the problem. Even more confusing, Historic Fontana is a Superspeedway, but the modern version is a Speedway.

 

It's all good, it's still relevant to know which variants are bugged. So now the dev team can focus on the correct issue and hopefully get this taken care of. We eliminated variables which is the point of AB testing. Less work overall. In my personal opinion.

 

I'm in the same boat. Just got a DD+ and it seems a bit different from the settings I liked on my DD1. Does anyone have good Fanatec software settings for the DD+?

 

Has anyone else experienced an oscillation problem when taking hands off the wheel at speed? Obviously I don't plan to go round driving with my hands off the wheel but there is significant effort required to hold the steering wheel still down straights when in other games such as ACC or ACE I don't have this issue.

I have a Moza R3 for reference and have tried various settings in Moza Pit House to eliminate this ('Hands off protection' seemed like the most obvious answer), but to no avail. I also have the Silver Raw custom FFB file installed (I think) but also there is no difference between any of the FFB profiles. I've tried playing about with damping, speed sensitive damping, gain etc. and I can't seem to single out this one aspect of the FFB in AMS2 only

 

Seems common on R3.
I imagine an R3 requires a lot of gain and perhaps lfb to get much strength out if it.
Oscillation normally comes because the centre is too saturated and too tight .
many custom files have too aggressive centre and smoothing of rack that causes signal wave timing anomalies of left to right rack .

I certainly don’t get oscillating with my custom , so not all files are the same by the way.

 

Hey Daniel, how's it going?

I've been meaning to thank you, @Karsten Hvidberg and the whole crew that helped to develop this latest ffb custom file, I have been using the Moza R9 version and it is super impressive how close it feels to mine AC setup.

I'm just coming back to the hobby, finally! and I'm super happy that you guys kept developing custom files. I truly hope you can keep up with Reizas physiscs updates just to maintain this custom file as it is, it is top quality! really worth having as an option ffb.

Thanks again, merry xmas to you guys and happy new year!
