Accuforce pro edition ffb wheel

Here is the comment of the guy drifting on this video and interesting conversation with another guy who has T500.

 

Suddenly the CSW 2 doesn't seem as the "must have thing" as it did a couple of month ago

Downside with the AF - It's so bloody heavy

 

That's a fair rehash of our convesation on this thread. I think what you might find even more interesting is my quote from David Tucker couple of pages back:
https://www.assettocorsa.net/forum/i...ro-edition-ffb-wheel.19771/page-5#post-369141

Where he explains how the AF wheel has the ability to receive raw FFB data. We can only hope that AC devs can expose similar functionality to those of us with higher end wheels. Otherwise, what's the point of dropping thousands on a wheel that would make the sim feel worse because it's not designed for them?

 

And 2 or 3 times as expensive... it's not exactly in the same league as Fanatec.

Interesting read, but I prefer the situation when the FFB works fine for 99% of users, not the other way around like in iRacing.

 

I also read it !

But !

I really can't take a iRacing fanboy seriously

Not only is it that much more expensive but most people probably have to upgrade their whole rig to handle the AF because of it's weight

 

I see, so I'm a fanboy now...

 

I must have mixed it up cause I ment the "Accuforce guy" comments in the other post above

Gotta LOVE Seinfeld !

 

Those are my comments from the iRacing forum. I've said the same here though, and even tried to talk to the devs about it, but have been ignored by them. I'm sure they're well aware of it and would prefer to sugar coat their sim since most people won't have high end equipment. It's a bit like console developers who develop their racing games around players who use a gamepad. Perfectly reasonable, just a shame for those few of us who want to extract every last ounce. The advantage of the AF wheel than any other current DD wheel is the SC which let's us do that.

 

Until Simracing garage tests it (said it will arrive in week) and customers starts receiving wheels.....it's hard to take beta testers serious

As it stands right now its iRacing wheel and nothing else.

 

OK then - I take back my last comment

If the iRacing FFB ( +Physics ) is light years ahead of Assetto Corsa then I am Batman

 

As long as the sim commander software allows me to overcome this hurdle than I see no big deal with them leaving the force feedback how it is. The amount of people who have these DD wheels is even smaller than people who by i7 8 core processors to game with. I would believe that the people developing opensim wheel will come up with a solution soon .

 

Well if the 8 cores would help in gaming then more gamers would choose them. On the other hand, servo wheels are promising to deliver a way better sim-driving experience (even though they need some considerable fine tuning and probably improvements in software), so some of us opted for them.

True, I was getting at the price of entry and how that relates to kunos use of its limited resources.

At first I'm sorry I couldn't make the video earlier. Weather was too nice not to play outside with my daughter.

I've seen a lot of disinformation in this thread also regarding AC's FFB, I did this video to get some proves and not just talking. So here it comes, uncut, unedited footage.

With this video I'm 100% sure I can bust some myths about "numb, dead and non-detailed ffb" and also show how the kerbs feels without any "canned effects" and how the FFB reacts to the shape of the kerb or to the speed differences. Not hyping some sims/wheels or talking bullsh*t. Only facts.

There's also some driving with the M3 E92 using OpenSimWheel. You can also hear how noise levels of the OSW.


Ps. Give Youtube the time it takes to process the video. I had to go to sleep now. Good night.

 

Thanks for posting it. I'll check it out when it gets done processing .

 

Very nice and detailed vid!!
High damper settings remove the oscillations but give a (horrible) dead feel to the wheel. At least that's how I feel it..

Instead of high damper, I suggest (well to be precise,@magicfr suggested it and it worked very nicely) to
remove the damper from the driver and add 1% friction. Helps with the oscillations and the wheel is still 100% fast & alive.


My settings (VSD set at 11 amps)

 

Thanks for the videos guys. I will try with equivalent settings with the AF tonight. I now see you guys are running 50% and 20% gain. The lowest I tried was 70, so will give this another shot without SC.

 

Thanks for the great video and all the info.

 

Good video at first thought it was a bit weird, but then kept watching and was informative enough.
