Pedal calibration

I am using a Logitech G29 and the default brake pedal setup in this game requires far too much force. With as much weight as the pedal board will support before lifting off the ground and I only get about 80% brake pressure. Will brake calibration be coming to this game?

On a side note, the rev counters in some cars are not calibrated for the G29 rev counter. The Ferrari 488 is one of them.

UPDATE I've opened a support thread on this: https://www.assettocorsa.net/forum/index.php?threads/g29-braking-calibration.55447/

 

You already can set the maximum (and minimum) force required in the advanced settings for the pedals in-game, so try setting a maximum force about 20-30 clicks down. That should do it. In time those G29 rubber stoppers do soften up, so you can probably ease this figure back over time. Either that or your legs get stronger!

 

Thanks. Thing is though, in that Advanced Settings area, the force it shows for my brake is totally different than in game, it hardly requires any force there to get to 100%. That said, I guess doing what you said will still achieve what I need in either case. Ill give it a shot, thanks.

Lol yea it's not a matter of leg strength, this board just won't support that much force w/o being mounted.

 

That's weird, I do not get that with mine. A strong force is required, but not so much as the pedal board lifts off, and the force required 'on track' aligns exactly with what I see in the advanced settings. Sorry I can't advise on that.

 

I also have a G29 and have the same problem. What I see in the calibration screen does not reflect the brake force while driving. For me at least, breaking until you reach the rubber, it should reach around 50% in the calibration screen, but only 20~30% while driving. But I think that's a bug because sometimes both will be the same, usually only during the first session or until I restart it, it's very weird.

Anyway, I set the max value around 50(which is a lot). It helps us reach 100% braking but makes it hard to control it while releasing(while pressing against the rubber) since it's more sensitive. Maybe something like rFactor 2 style of calibration where you can set a curve? That way we could make the rubber part of the brakes not be so sensitive.

 

I used two-sided sticky tape to stick my G27's pedal board to the floor until racing seat appeared It made a trick and you don't need to compromise brake precision.

 

As far as I know Logitech pedals need calibration every time after device is switched on. So I have to push all pedals in full range before racing (otherwise I'll lock wheels for the first braking).
Maybe your case is similar?

 

I'm not sure, I don't have this issue in any game other than ACC.

 

When I was using my G27 in AC I had to depress all pedals once while being in the pit-screen and BEFORE going out on track, otherwise I´d have completely wonky pedals (brakes locking with about 10% brakepressure, etc etc).

 

Yeah, this is a known 'feature' of the G29 and can be a problem for those that remove the rubber stopper. The existing curve gets much steeper at the end so without the support the brake gets really 'grabby'.

Have eithere of you tried swapping the brake and the clutch over in the game and see if you still have the problem?

 

It's not a problem with the G29. I like the rubber stopper and it works well everywhere else. The issue here is ACC curve not aligning in the calibration menu and on the track.

 

I think we're taking at cross-purposes. I agree, and also like the stopper. My first paragraph was an observation on MakeMeLaugh's comment about the curve.

 

Ah right right, my b

 

I didn't remove the rubber. It's a problem here because of what the OP said, the brake sensitivity while racing and on the calibration menu are different and because of that I have to add +50 to max brake, which makes it more sensitive, which would not be a problem if not for the rubber part where it's hard to control the pressure you apply.

I tried using clutch as brake but it feels wrong lol.

 

How do we raise this to Kunos' attention? I didn't see any other threads around this specific issue.

 

No, I know you didn't remove the rubber. I'm just saying that the Logitech have an upward curve built into the brake pedal that may be exasperating your sensitivity issue.

 

Add a thread in the support forum for controllers and peripherals.

 

Thanks, actually found few in there already that seem to have been ignored https://www.assettocorsa.net/forum/index.php?threads/brake-problems-with-g29.53105/

 

Oh dear... Reading it though it seems like that guy's problem is that the max limit won't go lower than 50, whereas you have (IMO) a much more serious issue of the calibration giving differing outputs between the options screen and in-game, so I would still say it's worth opening a new support thread.

 

Ah ok, I'll do that then.
