New and Improved: LexxVR's Custom FFB for AMS2

Choose “custom” under the Force Feedback menu, not “custom” as the type of wheel.

If you change the type of wheel to custom, you will have to remap all the buttons and input axes. This will not change the ffb type.

If you change the FFB type to custom, the file will be created if it doesn’t exist, and the current custom settings file will be activated. You can switch this back and forth while driving (pause, then change it under “options”) and it won’t affect your wheel calibration or input assignments.

 

Great.
Thank you @Lexx VR
Glad I asked because otherwise I would just have thought it was the type of wheel I should change.

 

I just gave this file a shot and I definitely think it was feeling better than the default OEM ffb. However, I just had one of those scary DD moments... I was driving (in a straight line) down the start/finish straight at Cascais in the Hot Cars Fusca HC1, and the wheel randomly went full lock to the right, ripping out of my hand... very scary!

I was using your suggested in-game AMS2 settings. On my DD1, I had Overall FFB strength set at 55 as 100 sounded too high to start with and did set Force Effect Strength at 60. I have NDP, NFR, and NIN all set to off as I usually love that feeling, but maybe that's the problem?

 

Am I completely wrong when I thought that setting the FFB to "Custom" would produce a ffb_custom_settings.txt in the mentioned documents folde?
My AMS2 install didnt produce anything!!
No file

EDIT: Oh silly me. I was looking in the wrong folder:
My Documents\Automobilista 2\savegame\xxxxxxxx\automobilista 2

The mentioned ffb_custom_settings.txt was created if the man had just looked in the right folder

 

I was pretty impressed with the out of the box ffb with my OSW. Tried this setting and wow it feels great! What is really nice is to have pretty heavy steering in the cars without PAS without it jolting and rattling which seems to happen in most other sims. The amount of feel especially on corner exits as the rears break traction is amazing. Thank you!

 

@Lexx VR
Absolutely incredible file. I don't know what you are doing differently from the other files, but this has repaired AMS2 for me after a long break (again).
Settings (T300 RS):
100% in control panel
Gain 72
Low Boost 40
FX 10
Damping 5

 

@Lexx VR

What can I change in the file to have a stronger FFB, feel it too weak I remember on PC2 was a line that should be added... but can't find it and cant remember... any clue?

Thanks!!
