    Yep.
    Ingame I made a 'custom wheel' setting because G923 is not available and calibrated the wheel.

    Stragely I cannot change wheel sensitivity from '50', it goes back to '50' when I go back into the menu...
    EDIT: I changed it to '30' while driving around and it stayed there. But changing it back to '50' won't work, it flips back to '30'. also when restarting a game.
    What does wheelsensitivity do/mean?


    But I found out when calibrating the wheel and set the RANGE to '80' instead of '100' (max) I get what I want and the wheel syncronisation with M1 Procar and Caterham 620R is spot on, but now the sync with 720 Ultima streetcar is flawed and I have to go back to calibrating it to '100' RANGE instead of '80' everytime I want to use that car. And so on. All the F1 car virtual steering wheels are even more out of sync...

    I searched/googled and cannot find any Automobilista 2 --->G923 info, only some driving videos.

    Cheers
    Robin

    I really think that the problem derives from this, Reiza has not yet entered the specifications of the new Logitech steering wheel .... therefore you must find at least a configuration (even customized) that correctly calibrates the steering wheel with 900 degrees (100% no 80% ) and with a sensitivity of 50 (the same in LogHUB) ... the game scales the degrees of rotation depending on the machine starting from 900 or 100% ... if in the calibration you start from 80% the game will scale the degrees in proportion and if you change the sensitivity in a different way from 50 there will always be an imbalance and you won't have a 1: 1 ratio between real and virtual steering wheel !!!
    Alternatively, instead of using the custom profile, have you tried to select the G920 as a steering wheel and do the calibration ???
    If you can't find a way to reach a correct calibration, I think you have to wait for an update from reiza to correctly recognize the steering wheel .....

    I'm looking for a friend of mine settings for the G920 using the latest Default that uses the new Damping features in game and not in the wheel firmware settings. Anyone got settings that I could pass on please?

    60-45-70-40 was what I settled at before the latest hotfix after extensive testing. Your mileage may vary.

    Hi friends I may have found a quick method to find a good G27 setup quickly with AMS2. It might also work with other steering wheels but I don't have the possibility to test it. I also tested the method with Raceroom and Assetto Corsa and it works with some specific settings. I call it the "Manohy's FFB method" to make it easy to share. It doesn't need custom files. It's a bit WTF like method I hope you'll forgive me lol. In any case, this FFB makes me want to drive longer with AMS2. I don't want to say bull**** but for me I find the same feeling of the FFB of RF2 with this one. I've just tested it with the stock car 2020 few minutes ago, oh ! heaven!!!! Please try it with your wheel and tell me what you thing :)

    Hi all.
    Tested multiple options recently on my g29, including Mahnoy's.

    I had the best feeling with these settings:

    Gain: 90% : Above that may be clipping
    Low Force Boost: 20% : I recommend not going too high with this value, I feel that it generates a lot of force when it's not necessary.
    FX: 90% : I think this is subjective, maybe most prefer lower, but I like the kerb, crash and grass effects.

    These are on Default setup.

    I think when using Default, it's better to lower gain to 60% or so and increase LFB to 50%. Otherwise you miss out on brake locking effects that are too subtle to pick up without magnification and get overpowered by the other forces. FX to me doesn't really convey anything useful, just road noise and an exaggerated slip effect that actually makes it harder to catch slides. I also don't need FFB to tell me when I'm touching the grass, AMS2 will helpfully do that anyway by sending my car into a violent 360 autobin.

    Is there an update in the pipeline where (my) Logitech G923 will be implemented in AMS2?

    Thank you.

    Cheers

    With the new custom FFB file from Karsten does anyone have recommended settings for the G29? Or even without the custom file looking for a new FFB since the last update. It hasn’t felt quite the same as it used to with TomP’s file, and isn’t quite as good as Raceroom/ Ac for me currently. Using Karsten’s “low-end” file currently.

    Honestly, I can't say I've ever felt anything useful out of the Karsten files for the G29. They feel different than Default for sure, but to me the information is not there or is so subtle it's hidden under other forces - no brake locking feel, no weight transfer. Even the Default is better right now. Maybe someone could go and try to increase some of Karsten's values to try to accentuate these effects and create a version specifically for Logitech wheels. I agree some of the custom files specifically for the G29 posted here and on RD before the Great FFB Update felt better than what we have now.

    For Default FFB, Raven_ARG's values (90-20-90-0) from a few posts ago are a good staring point.

    Thanks Azaris, I’ll give this a try. I agree the custom FFB used to be great, but maybe not so much anymore for the G29 at least. Just trying to emulate what I can feel in Raceroom with this wheel. I know raceroom tends to over-exaggerate but I feel that is needed with the G29 to some extent.

    After trying tons of custom files and settings, I have settled on @Karsten Hvidberg 's latest build. Interestingly the medium preset was better for me than the low preset. I have also adjusted some of the values to better fit the G29 and have posted the file below. In game settings taken from @Peter Stefani but upped the gain fairly significantly. So far this has felt the best to me but let me know what you guys think!

    Pretty good, certainly the best version of this file that I have tried. Maybe some of the kerb forces could be toned down a little as they are quite harsh on GT3's for example.

    I kind of like the harsh kerbing so I turned it up a bit but you can always tone it down. I've only experienced kerbing/rumble strips while highway driving so wanted to try to emulate that feeling as best as I could.

    Happy you like it! I really enjoy it as well and might keep it as is for now. I know @Karsten Hvidberg dropped a new version of his file but I don't want to mess with this quite yet :D

    Wow, just tried this, after strangely default config decided to no work anymore after a 10 lap race (no ffb at all), and it's very good. A lot of feedback from the car. Just a little exaggerated curb feeling but it's ok!
    Thanks

    Hello, sorry to ask that, but could you please reupload the file so I can try it. It will be my first custom ffb experience.
