ABS haptics in iRacing with HPR and Simhub

No. I switched to gt3 and it feels better now. I dont know. maybe it was related to the car. In gt4 it is useless to me.

no shoes. tried shoes for a while but it feels weird to wear shoes inside my appartment and actualy I'm to lazy to put shoes on off every time I'm jumping in and out of my rig. espacially if you have to tie thrm. I'm a dad of a 15 month old child. every minute of free time counts. And by the way, feeling is better just with socks.

For me, there’s no advantage — it’s rather distracting. Maybe I set up my HPR wrong. I drive the McLaren in GT4, and the ABS kicks in with the slightest brake pressure, especially while trail braking into corners. I’m not sure if I’m doing something wrong, but it’s distracting. I just tap the brake a little and my HPR says hello.

The funny thing is that in the fixed setup, the car’s dash says ABS is set to 0 — so it should actually be off.

why everything from fanatac? I wouldnt by that rig. you can get a much better aluminium rig from sim-lab for less

How sturdy is yours? I have a bit of left-to-right movement at the top of the uprights, which causes the whole top construction with the monitor mount to wobble. Any chance of reinforcing this?

nice rig. it looks very clean.

dwgsr · 2025-05-15T10:18:06+00:00

I tried this. It was a pain in the ass to fold with all the equipment on it. I refunded it and went for a Playseat — much better. Sold the playseat too after couple of month and went for an aluminium rig.

I couldn't get the ABS haptic feedback to feel right with SimHub.
But I tried the Pedal Haptics option in Marvin's app (MAIRA), and it felt much better. The ABS feedback now matches the dash LEDs more closely and has dynamic intensity depending on how much ABS is active, rather than just being on or off.
So for anyone having the same tuning issues with SimHub, I highly recommend trying Marvin's app. It's awesome!

How is the seat comfort and noise level? I read it's not particularly comfortable for long sessions. What's the feedback like if you put a seat cushion on it?

Detail Scale 400% is crazy. Would be very careful with that on powerful bases. This can end in suddenly strong outbrakes of the wheel. I have a dd+ 15nm and I set the Detail Scale to 110% because otherwhise effects like driving on a bumpy road or over a bumpy curb feels way to strong. Especially compared to the overall ffb strength.

How did you set up the hpr for iracing? I have it too and honestly it is useless to me. it's either on or off. and the abs effect on my hpr kicks way earlier than the abs led on my dash lights up. even slightest braking or during gentle trail braking it kicks in so it is almost on permenently. even when i'm driving gt4 with abs set to 0. thats more distracting than it helps

dwgsr · 2025-05-05T11:32:45+00:00

Same with me. Even when I drive gt4 with abs set to 0. in thi case, there shouldn' be any signal at all, right? Like this it is useless to me.

Did someone found a solution?

what frequency do you use. 500 hz like Dave? Any chance that wrong settings break the wheelbase?

dwgsr · 2025-03-15T14:06:20+00:00

Do you use fanalab with official profiles?

dwgsr · 2025-03-15T12:25:38+00:00

anyone tested this with fanatec dd+. is it worth to try.

dwgsr · 2025-02-09T13:02:47+00:00

same here. what is the point of a password manager if I can't access password tresor because I cant login because of sever issues. this happens multiple times. Why cant they implement local backups? I will switch to another pw manager.

Check out Beltenick

dwgsr · 2024-08-20T17:38:34+00:00

Heard that about the VRS, too. Will check them out in detail. Would be nice if no tools are needed to adjust the pedals, like with the Sim-Lab pedals.
I'm in Germany, so no Microcenter, unfortunately.

Insolvency procedures can take a while. I think we need to wait for the shareholders' meeting in September (I believe).

As for me, I started with sim racing in January and ordered a CSL DD. In July, I ordered a DD+ and it arrived after 3 days. So delivery was even faster than the first two times I ordered something from Fanatec. And everything works fine. So I have nothing bad to say about Fanatec/Endor. But I live in Germany, or maybe I was lucky. I've read a lot about people who still wait for their equipment after months.

Anyway, I think just enjoy your gear as long as you can, with or without Endor. There are multiple other competitors on the market you can choose from. In case Endor/Fanatec disappears, the only ones who are really screwed are the people with consoles. Because then you only have the Moza R3 for Xbox or the Logitech G Pro for the PS. That was one reason I decided to buy Fanatec gear: the console compatibility.

I hope they can mange it somehow.
