Be good to have you join us

Tempting BUT got to work out these damn FFB settings first. Changed since the last time I was on. Couldnt get anywhere last weekend. See how I go this weekend.

What wheel are you running? If you're using the TX with stock rim, I run all FFB at default except the following

deadzone at zero
speed sensitivity at 60
scoop knee at 50, scoop reduction at 49

If you have the GTE rim

scoop knee at 45, scoop reduction at 46

If you have a G920, try scoop knee at 47 and reduction at 21

Yeah TX with stock 458 rim. Sweet as mate, i will have a go next time im on. I have sen you are pretty active on the PCars forum too.

Yeah I get around, I've seen you are pretty quick, not sure I'm happy with that lol

Hit me up for a chat or race when you see me on. Too many wheel adjustments can be confusing/counterproductive. Keeping it simple and getting FFB linear is the aim.

I also leave all car FFB stuff alone, Jack's settings are not helpful, and that is a big rabbit hole right there changing FFB for every car at every track. Fiddling with SoP is also very counterproductive to feeling what the car is actually doing unless you have a full motion sim.

Haha yeah well the tuning is more my style than Forza - fast and slow damping for example is a treat!

I had dialled in a good setup before FM6 was released (when I was most active), all of the spindle setup remained the same across every car. I use those settings and its too heavy and it has this violent rack rattle that rips ones arms off. Ive never followed any of the recommended setups suggested by Spade, SMS or Thrustmaster. Some say its because my DOR is small....I disagree!

VERY IMPORTANT to leave your DOR at 900, you can change steering ratio to suit your preference per car. I'm working on some ratios for 360 and 270 DOR over at vmotorsport for reference. So far, most are 8 and under for a decent 360DOR

What I find is opposite lock requires tonnes of lock, turning not so much. Reason why ive always had small DOR, makes correcting oversteer easier.....

Do I or should I need to change anything on the wheel (via PC)?

wheel on xbox does not recognise any PC settings at all

I thought that, but read otherwise recently.

Have added you on XBL too.
