    Maybe some other users can help me out with the correct settings for that wheel?
    The settings that should do are a bit strong.
    Still missing the good old collision effect.

    I currently like my settings, but I'm not able to check at the moment.
    Will take a look tonight and let you know.
    They do slightly differ from the recommended setting.

    First make sure you are using the latest driver/firmware.

    I'm currently using the following settings:
    FFB Strength: 100%
    FFB Linearity: 98%
    FFB Minimum Force: 0%
    FFB Maximum Force: 100%
    Stationary Friction: 50%
    Engine Vibrations: 10%
    Bump Amplification: 20%
    Gearshift Effects 6%

    Could be that I will finetune a bit more, but at the moment I'm pretty happy with these settings.
    The linearity at 98% just increases the FFB strength in a straight line when the output is very low. This helped me get rid of the dead zone.
    For car specific FFB multiplier I am usually around the 2x mark, depending the car of course.

    Of course no collision effect, but to be honest I don't miss that at all.
    Hope it helps

    Hi there,
    I am using a T500Rs ,where the engine is different (i have no brushless motor)also the forces but you can start with this.
    I use this settings
    T500RS
    Settings
    to me works on All Cars its not perfect but brings back more V.load speed -roadfeeling and Curbs and stuff.
    Also every car feels different then like power steering or NO power steering
    Like Compare Group 4 Porsche vs. Porsche Classic vs GT³ vs1992DTM Vauxhaul (very heavy)
    FFB linearity 60-70% the lower you go the forces gets stronger dont go at 95% or so high your wheel can´t display forces there its for CSW or DD Wheels possibel you need to get below 60%
    FFB minimal Force 5% necessary to get roadfeeling back possibel you have to go above 5%
    standfriction 90% to me using a 33cm Wheel it feels to lose at 50%
    Immersion I do not like FAKE EFFECTS
    They are usless and kills other usefull effects!!

    But one effect is needed to make it work
    FFB bump amplification 35% necessary for Curbs ,asphalt edges,manhole covers possibel you have to go above 35%

    Just wondering @Dady Cairo : How are the suggested settings working for you? Had any chance of trying them out?

    Ah,sorry
    I made a complete reinstall to make sure everything is right.
    Alwin,i use your settings now,wich are not very different from what i had before without engin vibration.
    Sadly i can not use otterhud anymore causing micro stutters and tryed to find a solution,but hadn't found one.

    No problem.
    Good to hear you like the settings.
    And just fiddle with the settings until you find whatever feels best for you.
