[Attila Domján]

[Rob Hermans]

LOL, I bet he's really bad at sim racing, but at least he made it to F1, and that's ACTUAL REALITY, not VIRTUAL!

[Bram Hengeveld]

Thanks waku for that plr post.. i use it on my G25 now and i must say: hmmmmmm very smooth handling exiting the corners now !!

[Attila Domján]

I turned this speed sensitivity steering form 10% what i had to §, and i must say i am in more direct feeling with the car, much more smooth steering and cornering, more consistent laptimes, less strange behaviour from the car in corners, i really like it!

Thank for this discussion guys!

p.s.: i think that was one of the reason of the Mini Valencia time 1.52.8 as well lol

[Marcel Hulsbergen]

I always use Speed sensitivity steering on 0% gives more and faster response.

Off topic, Neo i have it too, The X-Fi gamer, its wonderfull!!!

I know, it is a piece of art sound card!

Hi guys,

I was wondering if there is any way to use just separately the shifter from the G25, without having connected the whole wheel to the PC? Since i will pick up my ECCI baby on Friday the G25 i am gonna put aside, but would love to have the shifter only.

I am not using it that often to buy a separate dedicated shifter (just for some offline fun i use, because i am simply slower with H-sifter and clutch), but would like to have the possibility to have it if it can be done somehow.


Any idea......?

[Marcel Hulsbergen]

I use it for the buttons, and with the sequential setting i use the shifter for adjusting brake balance to front and back. Works like charm.

I think you can disconnect this thing from the main unit, the wheel. It should work as an USB component, i wil see if i can find some more info about it.

I tried the settings out yesterday and i must say that i really need to get used the very light steering without the centering spring. You really need to steer very gentle. Furthermore i also need more practice with controlling the brake and throttle pedal.

[Attila Domján]

Thanks Waku in advance. It has a connection like an RS232 port, but i donno if it is possible to operate without the wheel....

[Attila Domján]

Without the centering spring? why it is light? If you turn on FF then you have a centering force from the FF, and if you turn the FF off the you should turn on the centering spring, to have some force at least...

[Rob]

I use the following setup in Race and rFactor as well.

Contorl Panel:
Combined.....: unticked

Overall Effects Strength: 100%
Spring Effect Strength: 0%
Damper Effect Strength: 0%

Centering spring: ticked 0%

In the game ffb=100% and low. /in rFactor: 50-100% depends on mod/

Steering Sensitivity: 45 %
Throttle Sensitivity: 30 %
Brake Sensitivity: 30 %
Clutch Sensitivity: 20 %

Steering Dead Zone: 2 %
Throtlle Dead Zone: 0 %
Brake Dead Zone: 0 %

Can you test these settings with Momo Racing and give me feedback?
thx
Roberto

Aha, i see I now set FF off and enabled the centering spring. For now, it feels quite good.

[Hard Ass Dune Corleone]

Why do you turn you're FF off, when you have a FF wheel? You dont have any pressure on the wheel then? Or am I mistaking...

[Maurice Hurkmans]

With FF off you'll have more control over the car and in many cases you are simply quicker.

But what Neo said: If you turn on FF then you have a centering force from the FF, and if you turn the FF off the you should turn on the centering spring, to have some force at least...

[Maurice Hurkmans]

But what i wonder: I now drive with FF off and Centering spring on 100 %, should i then driving with a high steering lock (like wakuwaku also posted)?

[Hard Ass Dune Corleone]

What's centering spring? (STUPID ME!)

Sorry for dutch: The centering spring is de centreerveer, oftewel als je bv. naar links stuurt krijg je daar weerstand van. Mocht je je stuur in die positie loslaten, dan trekt de veer het stuur naar het midden terug.

Ik zou zeggen: probeer zelf uit wat je zelf prettig vindt: De FF of de centreerveer als stuurweerstand.

[Hard Ass Dune Corleone]

DUTCH: Eeh bedankt Racemaus, dat maakt een hoop duidelijk! Ik ga het weekend is even spelen met de settings.

Now english again!

[Attila Domján]

I set my centering spring at 125 % on the G25, this setting gave me the best feeling, but still not too strong to be able to race long hours without pain in the hands.

[Maik Peters]

So you're going to put it to 150% ?? or les?

[Attila Domján]

nope, what i mean is 125 % is a good balance for haveing some feeling of the force, but not too strong to be tireing.

[Bram Hengeveld]

I changed my G25 settings today. Now in the profiler i unticked the forces. Only ticked centeringspring.
In RACE i set forces to 100%. Now i am able to race with a "heavy" steeringwheel without that FF annoying me

[Travis Webster]

I myself am trying to find my comfort zone with my G25. So you have all the settings off except the center spring?(at what %) I am looking for more ideas for my wheel setup, so maybe I'll play around some more. I have read alot of forums debating on the FFB issue. I think I am faster without it but I enjoy the emersion that comes with a little FFB. I've also heard of people not using the logitech profiler at all, maybe I'll try that too.

[Bram Hengeveld]

I dont use the profiler, only setup it up in control panel from windows
