Rfactor 2 FFB Tweak.

TiagoNie · Aug 31, 2020

Hi guys. Just made this quick video that shows you how you can modify Rfactor 2 FFB in a subtle way, but quite noticeable still. This is for those like me that FFB feels weak, and that's mostly because the forces are coming from "damping" not "friction". While I don't know the full details behind that, imagine it as being "damping" feeling only the tyres and weight and force that comes from it, while with "friction" you can experience a "fuller" FFB, a little bit like ACC and AC, while still retaining a lot of RFactor 2 charateristics.

Enjoy.

Tried it out and I have to say for this one works alot better for me, now i have alot more feeling for the car. this makes me going back to RF2 i think.

Well, that's a radical change than. Great to hear that. What wheel do you have?

I have the t300. i mean its not so radical as it sounds but it gives me defenitely more feel through slower corners so i am am able too feel more the mechanical grip

Yeah, I have the same wheel. I also like to have a mix of 30/25 on the Damper and Spring on TM. Try it if you have them on zero, feels fuller and doesn't really drown the FFB in any way I think.

Thanks mate. Made it feel better than original. More feedback through wheel now and can feel the rumble strips now. Fanatec CSW v2.5

Any more views on this? Placebo effect?

A bit late to the party but wow this works for me. Confidence and consistency are through the roof.
Thanks, TiagoNie

I tried recently with the BTCC FWD cars, instantly felt more front end feedback. Fanatec CSW 2.5.

Damping is proportional to wheel speed, the faster it moves the higher the resistance, friction is constant, always present resistance (wheel weight).
