Question for the devs concerning ffb differences

Cool. That is a good workaround.

I still think it should be made available as a menu option. But I guess there's some merit in having it adjustable in real-time to dial it in while actually driving so you dont have to keep going back to a menu.

At the very least, it should be something more 'advertised' somewhere, so people know about it. Reminds me a bit of the mirror. Took me way too long to discover that F11 brings up a fixed rear mirror, which is an absolute necessity while racing. This shouldn't be hidden.

 

Yeah I agree. There should be a list of commands in loading screen or something, like f11 for mirror, ctrl+t for tc steps and ctrl+a for abs steps, but thats another thread.

 

Setting FFB levels per car is already an app; how much more integrated into the game can it get than that?

 

It was the worst thing I've ever seen in my life, easily the biggest detractor from pCars.

 

Yes, your were talking about it on previous page. You were also mentionning it would handle presets (i.e. be able to switch between different LUTs from within the session I guess ?).
So I understand from your answer it's still on your roadmap and will come with a later patch ?

Although thanks kofotsjanne for the link, I wasn't aware of Akis' 3rd party tool to create LUT from wheelcheck.

That's all nice stuff we have there, thank you Stefano, Akis and everyone else involved.

On last thing, I've read about Gyro in the other thread. Is this 3rd party or built-in feature ? (coming back from a few months break, still catching up with what the last patchs brought in the game. Btw I've seen some results of the MP collisions changes, looks promising too !).

Oh I forgot, is there a explanation somewhere for the force feedback controller app ? Tried it a few hours agos with good results going from 85 default value to 120. Completely fixed a huge imbalance I had between short effects (bumps) and sustained forces (side load, which were completely inexistant and hidden behind short effects). How does it exactly work inside ? Sounds like it acted like a signal compressor but only for sustained effects, as it leveled it with short effects which remained more or less the same).

 

I think it might end up cool, but no way essential... so, don't really know if I'll have time to get it done.

 

The +/- thing has actually been decided by the community due to the unbeatable advantage of being able to change it on the fly with immediate effect. It's the easiest and best approach imo. IIRW it was decided to NOT put it in the setup screen because the devs wanted this clean of peripheral adaption stuff, only proper garage stuff.

I agree that the keyboard shortcuts need to be accessible, preferrably from options menu. I was pretty frustrated when first racing the Yellowbird until someone told me to hit "0" ;-) Then there's the driving aids, mirror, damage indicator, driver names and the silly race position overlay that can be toggled via shortcuts.

 

Force feedback anti-clipping tool - v4.1

It will now automatically adjust your FFB level per Car/Track combo and save it.

Im using that, but some people doesnt like it. To me it giving a perfect ffb, but its still possibly to change on manual mode. Its awesome!

 

I liked the presets selector idea for the ffb LUT system. If the switch can be realtime (while driving, like for ffb app) it would help comparing LUTs (linearized only, vs lin+some gamma reintroduced, or any other manual modification of the curve after linearization). Not essential but direct comparison like this (instant switch) makes it much efficient to spot differences.

 

People, there is app for FFB gain adjustment that you can put on the screen. It's been there since 1.4.

 

Are you talking about the ffb controller app andrew ? This would be only ffb gain ? This app let you set a value of 500 and even more (I stopped at 500 when checking for max possible value^^)

 

Cheers, I didn't realize the FFB app was a per-car thing that got saved. Just thought it was some master level thing.
