Discuss rFactor2

I would love to see vids or pics of any sim dev team acquiring chassis flex data. (and there are plenty of self proclaimed sim experts that will state as fact that AC doesn't simulate tire flex since it isn't represented visually)

 

you're right I didnt read the message you were replying to properly.
I stand corrected in your case

 

Technically, it's all fake - just ask POTUS.

 

Actually it's in controller.json.
Have you checked?

I asked this before and didn't get a convincing answer: what are these if not fake effects in the controller.json file?

"Jolt magnitude":1.5,
"Jolt magnitude#":"How strong jolts from other cars (or walls) are. Suggested Range: -2.0 to 2.0.",
"Off-road multiplier":0.3,
"Off-road multiplier#":"Temporary test variable to reduce force feedback strength off-road (0.0 = zero FFB, 1.0 = full FFB)",
"Rumble strip pull factor":1.5,
"Rumble strip pull factor#":"How strongly wheel pulls right\/left when running over a rumble strip. Suggested range: -1.5 to 1.5.",
"Rumble strip update thresh":0.05,
"Rumble strip update thresh#":"Amount of change required to update rumble strip effect (0.0 - 1.0)",

 

There are more if you continue.

Anyway,

Again,FFB in RF2 only comes from tires that sends the info for the steering rack,no canned effecs used,even the ruber flex is feeled,just use Motec to see it,but i must deal whit noobs here,the only person here crdible is Lord Kunos,since he is a dev,not some random guys that probably dont even know how a real car works.

If you're such an expert why don't you explain to me what those things do???

 

Then what are these json values for?

Can someone explain to me what "canned effects" exactly mean and why is it bad?

 

"Alexa, order all the popcorn"

 

Just ran across this video of what is left of historic Spa.

 

I'm just a noob as it was pointed out, so take this as my humble opinion: canned effects are FFB that do not directly come from the physics engine. For example in AC, if you have a completely flat surface that is marked as a kerb and have the Kerb canned effects set to 100% than your wheel will rumble when your tires go over that surface.

I personally don't think that canned effects are bad, unless they are exaggerated, which I think some of them are in rF2. I reduced the "Rumble strip pull factor" to a value that feels way more natural than the default one on my wheel.

 

Thx for the explanation.
But I don't agree on one point.
As I see it all these effects do come directly from physics engine and each sim has its built-in coefficients.
In some sims like rf2 they are exposed in json file for people to change them based on their personal likings.
These efects are present in each sim but when they are not in line (too strong) with peoples perceived expectations of what should be felt in a wheel then they are called canned.
Rf2 has some default coefficients too big making those effects "canned".
But they are still coming from physics engine, right?
Rumble strip effects are felt only when sim car goes over rumble strips.

 

Wow. that man is amazing, and I thought Psaki was hilarious

 

All thoses called "canned" efects are disable actualy
"Clutch effects on steer axis":0
"Brake effects on steer axis":0
"Rumble strip magnitude":0

""Rumble strip magnitude#":"How strong the canned rumble strip rumble is."

You're a *****, or a troll. Considering you only have 6 posts total on this forum, all shilling rF2... I would say you are both.

Dont come back please.

 

There is a difference between effects being used (by default) and a possibility to turn them on through config file.

 

"Yeah but... these specifically labeled canned effects dont count in this case because I said so."

This discussion is fruitless.
