This is an offer of help for Rfactor 2

[jimortality]

As the title says, I'm no expert and I found it all daunting to start with but If any newcomers want to know how to get into RFactor2 and what to download and what not to download plus some graphic settings just either reply in here or PM me. I've spent the last 2 weeks just on this game and it's flippin amazingly the bestest lol game I've ever played. It can seem a pain at first but trust me, it's soo easy. Anyway the offer is there if anyone needs it.

Cheers

There is a wheel settings conversation in here recently. Use the search function on that one.
Hang on that was for you. Why are you asking again for wheel settings??

...hang on! oh because there is a lot more than just the push the pedals, steer left and right and gear shift calibration...a lot of other settings there and there is nothing wrong posting and asking experienced members for help. unless I missed the rules of not being allowed to post or there being the "David O'Reilly" police?!? frankly, instead of your post above, at least you could have replied with something productive to the thread...either in form of a question or answer. and if you read the OP my post is well placed here!
that is why usually end up PM'ing with members and never post anything, and how 90% of others feel about some members posts here...just like your reply! zero help and trying to say what exaclty????

OK, back to Topic (original thread OP!)

 

[Gijs van Elderen]

On your CSW:

Sen: off
FFB: 100
Sho: 50 (wheel-base vibration)
ABS: 95 (brake pedal vibration: makes the nice ABS feel when brake at 95%)
Lin: off
Dea: Off
Dri: off
For: 110 (hardware FFB multiplier)
Spr: off
Dpr: off (use the ingame smoothing or damping)

Ingame: i've everthing default.

Ingame: ==> option ==> difficulty:
Turn everything off: Only use TV, ABS, and auto-clutch if you want too.

Graphics:
I think you can max everything with your rig. If you encounter stutter or bad FPS: turn off the SLI or set in card to do "physx".
Press "ctrl-f" to get a fps counter ingame.

@David O'Reilly - sry mate my apologies for going off there, but was reacting to the fact of several official forums where one asks questions simply because no clue about games and controllers and graphic settings and people post all kind of rude ways. you have helped greatly and appreciate you taking your time to post details and share your settings/ info. thx again for the other thread post!
