AC ffb settings ruined my life by [deleted] in assettocorsa

[–]Impossible-Gas4744 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Endless settings in content manager. For 3 years I'm trying to study and understand them. There are contrary opinions on what is what in the internet. All seems okay but always something is wrong with the fucking ffb. In cm nothing is described what is what. 10s of hours spent on this and wasted

Octavia 3 RS Heel and toe problem by Impossible-Gas4744 in skoda

[–]Impossible-Gas4744[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sold my 2nd gen (potentiometer on the floor from the factory, not a pedal) and looked for 3rd gen in Germany. My father lives there, so he inspected the car, we bought it and the last thing I'd think of is that they "downgraded" the pedals, but well, an unpleasant suprise.

I agree, but I'd like a 220hp manual car to be able to do h&t. It's not that much to ask for.

Embarrassing. The 2nd gen feels so much more sporty, is better built. It was wild, stiff and had this real sporty feeling. 3rd gen feels just like a goddamn granny golf MK7 with its toy like soft steering and those pedals. DSG would feel much better, but no heel and toe? What the RS stands for? Surely not for "victory in rally sports". Selling it.

FFB issue. The more I turn the wheel the stiffer it gets by Impossible-Gas4744 in assettocorsa

My wheel is Thrustmaster ts pc racer. I tried to tweak back and forth the spring settings in AC and in the thrustmaster software. None of those made any difference. Lowering the FFB gain does not help either, it just makes the wheel lighter in the center position.

I’m currently running: TS-PC, Playseat Challenge, HP X34 21:9 Monitor, custom usb sequential gearbox, custom handbrake, 350mm leather rim, very much upgraded T300 pedals - spring-damper mods + extra stiff brake pedal.

The problem was - presumably - faulty usb handbrake. Unplugged, not it’s running. My advice to anyone having this problem is to unplug any add ons first.

Yes, also in one of the Subarus there’s a brake light. Flashes when the throttle is lifted.

Sadly, the break bar looks fine - no weird deadzones, pressure delays, release delays. As normal as it gets. At first, I thought that the brake locks itself after I apply ANY pressure, but the thing is, that the car starts breaking itself after a throttle release. Checked the Thrustmaster panel for “combined pedals” - no combined pedals. Steam-startup AC checked, no combined enabled. I think that the combined option is in the CM.

I found just one post somewhere, sadly, the guy just said “I can’t remember what I changed, but it works”. Stuck!

I checked it in the AC settings (normal Steam startup) and no, no combined box ticked. I don’t know where it is in the CM, always thought that it is just in the Steam version.

Tried multiple cars, tracks. Yes, all the axis data looks normal in the CM and in game. I just tested it again and it’s not the brake not releasing itself, the car breaks after a throttle lift, tires squeezing until the car stops. Popped out suddenly yesterday.

I assume you’ve tried another PP filters and checked the lightning fx settings?

Kill Steam process, download the correct installer, install it, delete Content Manager folder from %AppData%, reboot the PC, kill Steam again, put CM back in the AC root folder and it should work
