    Hello,

    What means in the FFB monitoring windows in game, the red line and the yellow line.
    The yellow line is supposed to reflect the minimum FFB in use and the red the maximum but does the middle area is there to translate the correct amount FFB.
    When the green FFB curve overcome the red line does it translate false FFB or too much FFB ?
    What is the best way to adjust the FFB green curve.
    Is it to maintain the green FFB curve between the yellow and red line or doesn't matter if sometimes the green FFB curve overcome the red line i.e. on tight track curves ?

    Some help very appreciated.

    Cheers
    Gerard

    Yepp, mainly it is all abiut getting the green line between the yellow and red. If the line is below the yellow line, increase minimum force - if it starts above without diing much while driving, decrease it. Depends a bit on your likings but ffb should start close to the yellow line.

    If the green line is above the red line, your ffb is to strong and might start clipping. In that case reduce the ffb-strenght. It is ok when the green line comes above in peaks like in accidents curbrides or things like that with much ffb-effects. but it shouldn‘t be constantly above the red line...

    Ok thanks for the advices. I already tweaked some forces reducing from the standard G25 FFB profile and looking at the monitoring ffb window in game the green line is waving between the yellow and red lines but sometimes the green wave overpass or peak above the red line for very short time and again this green wave oscillate between the yellow and red; but on a straight way the green wave curve stay and cover the yellow line.
    Again thank you for your response. I'm going to tweak the FFB a bit more to get the green wave on or above the yellow line most of the time.

    Cheers
