New RealFeel from GameStockCar in rFactor

I am not asking about it. I am informing you all that it does work and it is improved.

I downloaded the free demo like most have and noticed the realfeelplugin.ini layout was slightly different then previous versions. Here is the old realfeel's set of options.

[General]
RealFeelIsOn=True
ConsoleEnabled=False
ConsoleRepeatDelay=0.200000
SpeechEnabled=True
KeyRepeatDelay=0.200000
SteerForceInputMax=65535.000000
MinSpeed=16.000000
LogEnabled=False
DefaultMaxForceAtSteeringRack=2000.000000
DefaultSteeringDamper=65535.000000
DefaultSmoothingLevel=0

and here is the new versions.

[General]
RealFeelIsOn=True
ConsoleEnabled=False
ConsoleRepeatDelay=0.200000
SpeechEnabled=True
KeyRepeatDelay=0.200000
SteerForceInputMax=65535.000000
MinSpeed=0.000000
DefaultMaxForceAtSteeringRack=1500.000000
DefaultSteeringDamper=65535.000000
DefaultFrontGripEffect=0.150000
DefaultSmoothingLevel=0
VehicleDelimiterSize=11
DefaultKf=4000.000000
DefaultKs=7.000000
DefaultA=1.500000
DefaultKr=3.000000

I spent the last three hours tweaking and trying to figure out what these new parameters do ...

DefaultFrontGripEffect=0.150000
VehicleDelimiterSize=11
DefaultKf=4000.000000
DefaultKs=7.000000
DefaultA=1.500000
DefaultKr=3.000000

They are all very cryptic aside from the first one and I didn't notice any real change going to extremes with the other values.

I do not wish to zip up and distribute the new .dll without permission first. But nothing is stopping you from downloading the demo of Reiza studios Game Stock Car and copying the files over yourself.

I have tested with HistorX, Lotus23's, VLN, legends and Bathurst Legends and the improvement is noticeable. I recommend the altered default settings I posted above for G27. Standard realfeel hotkeys work to adjust the old settings and I haven't found any new keybinds. Also you may notice that even when "SpeechEnabled=True" you won't hear "realfeel is enabled" anymore.

I also removed my leo's since this new realfeel has added stiffness at no speed but when I put the car in gear that seems to stop working. Just odd I suppose. I find lowering to a 90% mix takes the edge off of things without tweaking too much or adding smoothing.
