In iR tendieren ALLE Autos zum übersteuern. Zumindest wenn man nicht das Setup brutal in die Gegenrichtung -zum Untersteuern- entwickelt. Das Griplevel ist generell sehr schmal bei iR. Man muss die meisten Fahrzeuge förmlich balancieren.

Linearer Mode und default FFB Stärke auf 12 ging beim dem Fanatec mit dem BMW Rim gar nicht. Habe den Slider jetzt auf FFB Stärke 22 und die Effekte waren spürbar.

Damping is a reactive force that scales with the derivative of position (that is speed for you motorheads). In other words, the faster you turn the wheel, the more it resists your motion.

Friction is a constant resistance to motion that has a finite magnitude. Think of it this way, rubbing your finger over a smooth surface has a low but steady level of friction, while rubbing your finger over a rough surface has a higher, but still steady level of friction (resistance to the motion) no matter how fast you may move your finger. The way I model it is to use a very strong damping force, but clip it so that it only allows for a small amount of resistance. The effect feels like you are turning a bolt that is a bit sticky, it is hard to turn but it does not get any harder the faster you turn it, in fact it gets easier the faster you turn it because your input force goes up.

Neither of these can do much of anything to smooth out the FFB forces from the sim, it is just the nature of digital damping that it is unstable and not that good at smoothing anything out. However the regular damping force does a good job of muddling up the FFB because it can easily saturate the available torque in the motors giving you nothing left for reproducing the FFB forces (the same issue happens with the centering spring effect). While the friction effect is limited in its magnitude so you know in advanced how much detail you are loosing. In most cases a little friction will only cost you a little fidelity, but with larger benefits than damping provides.

The CSW does not play that nicely with my new friction effect, mostly because there encoder resolution is low, but also because the CSW has a natural friction effect caused by the rubber belts. I found that the Fanatec wheels don't benefit much from the friction effect, it is much more useful on Logitech wheels (and low end Thrustmaster wheels).

The odd behavior around zero with the CSW is something I have spent a long time messing with, but I don't have a real solution for you. You can always increase the min force slider to reduce the dead zone, but then you magnify the 'clunk' you always get with this wheel, so there is no winning.

- Added in a new experimental 'friction' damper to the sim. This provides a small amount of resistance to wheel motion no matter how slow or fast you move the wheel, creating a sense of weight on your wheel. This works best on lower end wheels. To use this change app.ini [Force Feedback] steeringDampingMaxPercent=0.0 to a value between 0.05 and 0.30 depending on how much weight you want to add to the wheel. If this becomes unstable then adjust app.ini [Force Feedback] steeringDampingFactor=0.10 to a smaller value, but you should not need to adjust this at all.
