Assetto Corsa Competizione - Generic discussion

Thanks for your reply mate My feelings on dry track at ACC:
Still "strange" and uninformative. While straight away its scratchy and noisy and it feels like my old G25. While cornering I get not really any informations about the car. The forces comes too damped and too slow. I've to use more visuals and audio effects than the FFB. Something I've done also in Project Cars 2 while testing.

First thoughts: It's just unusual but its still there also after around 13h ingame.

Does the AC Twitter read what they retweet? Sometimes I wonder.

 

Guys did you simplify the physics?
Or I just got berrer?
I mean, yesterday it was very difficult to maintain stability on the last chicane I if hit the carbs. To day seems to be a childhood play. Also in turn 5, yesterday while breaking I loose the rear many times.not today. Even breaking hard into it. It's like if esp is on, but it's not. Strange.

 

Simplified, its the way to go.
All those stickies in this forum explain how they simplified it.

 

There are 2 types of dampening implementation both used by AC happening at the same time as they are not excluding each other. One is for controlling the standstill heaviness of the wheel and the other for the regular heaviness of the wheel when driving at speed. For the 2nd when driving at speed, the devs introduced ALSO the experimental GYRO setting which can only work properly with the DAMPER forces activated in the driver (and at 100% for the consumer wheels like TM and Fanatec) and acts as a more realistic damping based on actual physics. And the above is not just my understanding it was actually explained by the devs themselves. Aris could confirm quickly when he sees this post. I will dare say we need to learn to properly setup our wheels and leave perceptions aside. Hope I am not offending anyone with this, and I apologize in advance, but a lot, and I mean a lot of FFB complains are coming from improper wheel setups which are usually propagated by people, well intended no doubt, but still based on perceptions or word of mouth.

 

So if I understand correctly Gyro is using direct input dampening and at rest. The 2nd method is using the direct input constant force ?

 

From my understanding it got closer to real life, without any "fake" canned effects or filters. I would suggest that you read the pinned threads (should give you a better picture) and answer any questions.

 

Yes, you are correct. The amount of the dampening on the second method was controlled with a number from 0-100 in the ASSETTO_CORSA.ini FF_EXPERIMENTAL section DAMPER_GAIN setting. For those activating GYRO=1, like myself, AND depending of the wheel rim size (very important) the GAIN was in the range of 15-30 (less for larger, heavier rims and more for the lighter ones). On my TS PC with the formula shipping rim DAMPER_GAIN=30 was the correct setting. With the Sparco 33cm rim I used 15. All of these were advised by the devs btw.

 

I don't understand what you mean for pinned threads. Thank you

 

what stickies?

 

He means he was driving worse yesterday in acc and is suddenly driving better today so he thinks it got updated and got easier (yay for muscle memory the next day? )

 

Does AI racers have unique characters or what ? I am setting up AI aggression extremely low, and some from time to time are still very suicidal in side to side battles. However, if you don't expect them to let you through easily then you can have a nice little battle, they go slow but nice to race. Very easy to send it. Had a few really good races. Though the AI are very slow in general, they still beat me at the top laptime somehow, must be very inconsistent. Slow on reacting to green flag, makes a jam, and continues going almost like people in my town, starts going a second or two after the car in front drives away.

 

Aaah that AC ai nostalgia. Good to see at least one thing that remained familiar.

 

I’ve just gone through the thread list and discovered this:

ISSUE Very high steering wheel sensitivity

... and I nearly died laughing

No offense to the OP, I haven’t read it yet, the Titel is just hilariously fitting from the watch our FFB discussion. Srry

 

That has nothing to do with the FFB really, it's more an issue with some Logitech wheels, you turn the physical wheel a bit that results in a pretty large movement of the one in the game...

 

I know, it was just the title...

 

Luca did a beautiful job with the sounds, 'Epic' comes to mind

 

About to hit 100 HRS



Anyone got more time in the Sim?

 

Means nothing.

 

Please fix the no save options. many talk about it but still nothing on any social media platform or steam saying its been noticed or being fixed. games great cant play it cause it wont save. mentioned on twitter , facebook, reddit , steam , official forums. not one reply or notification about it being even acknowledged. please fix it or atleast say we are aware of the issue.thanks
