Does anyone here use a Thrustmaster T500RS wheel? Can't get the FFB to feel nice, profiler and ingame settings would be great

I do. I just loaded the default ingame profile and feels perfect to me

What are your profiler settings? It is so heavy for me and the cars aren't controllable when sliding..

I've reinstalled my PC and didn't back up the settings

Here are my settings; recommended by the devs, as far as I remember.
And in game loaded the default profile, but reduced a bit the kerb effect, to my taste.

They later said that you should turn spring and damper to 0%, same deal as LFS basically. Pure FFB from the game engine.

Anybody have profile settings for a G27?

Is it the 2nd picture with SweetFX? It looks to over exposed? And how do you have an F1 in AC???

Fordie

Or the first one is very dark and smudgy, so the 2nd one seems exposed? I don't know, that is more how reality looks to me then the default graphics..
It's better when you tone down the HDR a bit in the game with Page Down buttons, but it's so damn annoying to do it every time, i'm searching for .INI file with those settings but it doesn't seem to be possible..

I love the Mclaren's back side, never even drove it till yesterday, also digging that 'click' shifting sound, reminds me of my Momo

I have disabled HDR as this improves FPS, well that's what I read

Fordie

You don't have to quote the pictures every time Fordie

It improves it, but i drive with locked 54 fps, and it's too damn good looking to have it disabled..

Yeah sorry about that, I didn't see the pictures load before I replied LOL

I will give it a try. Locked at 54fps....any reason why?

There was an advise somewhere that you lock the fps to the minimum your fps goes, so for example your fps never goes below 80 but only above, then you should lock it to that..
Since Snoopy released the Nord those numbers went below that, it dippes below 60 on the Nord on my machine.. so i started locking it to 54, works well for other tracks too, don't see any major difference then when i had it locked to 89.
It looks smoother then having your fps jump from 60 to 120 all the time..

Thanks for this, will give it a go. Watching BTCC at the moment, looking forward to the Super Touring return race at 4:15 John Cleland comes back for a race

Fordie

anyone tried the editor? i cannot open since it needs net framework 4.5.2 and my pc says fatal error on that one,i tried everything... any ideas?

Tried it, apparently its more or less just an editor for final AC specific tweaks, your own track development still has to be done in a proper 3D program like Blender or 3DMax, not much diffeent to how those guys do it with the unofficial tools now.

Its not like the Trackmania editor.

I think i never watched BTCC live, just tuned up to some stream, i see bunch of Clio's, guessing that's not it? There's more races in a day or what?

But this was so excite, much adrenaline!

Fiesta and Mazda MX5 are on the way, in the AC Forums, but yeah, give the Abarath some slicks LOL

There kind of is. First there was, then it was taken away. Now they put an app back in, shows only the last line though.

It's semi-slicks though sorry

Talk about crowded (BTCC) lol, and that TV guy is still racing? :P

Which TV Guy? Tim Harvey is only a commentator now, doesn't race anymore. He used to do the Porch cup
