Setting up your Steering Wheel: Hints/Tips


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello Guys,

 

Last night I mentioned how I had changed the settings on my steering wheel, and this was thank to Hutch #331.

 

Having just had a breif discussion with him, he has sent me a picture, which may well help some of you. Its about adjusting the rates, and what it did for me was help me to cure my understeer.

 

So thanks very much to Hutch for the picture, and obviously the work in finding the settings. I hope it can work for you like it did for me.

Ok, after a discussion in chat on Thursday and after what Johno has already said above....I thought it might be a good idea to have a thread were people can post how they have their particular wheel setup as a bit of a starting point or guide if they are new to racing rFactor and are having trouble setting their wheel up

 

So if anyone else wants to post how they have their wheel setup or anyone has a question about their own wheel and how to set it up...this is the place and hopefully someone will have an answer

 

 

Mine is a Logitech G25... in the Logitech profiler I have my wheel setup like this below

In game I have the same as Johno above and my force feed back like below

And I also use reelfeel plugin, which an addon for the force feed back and is available HERE at rFC

 

Hope this helps, this above is by no means "how to have it" and is open to change lol

If you untick your centre spring grasser you'll get on 100 times better

 

Mine acts funny if its still ticked

On sidewinders the feedback should be 100%, feedback should be on full for normal rfactor feedback setings

 

If you use real feel put it to low other than that the settings above are the same

I have mine very similar to Grasser, i started off with no centering spring at all so it was completly free and took no effort to turn it, now i have turned the spring up to 24% to give a little resistance but not so its anywhere near to hard.

Set it up as johno has his, but dont know if good or not lol

I'd also like to try and re setup my wheel, as i'm sure that i could get more out of it. As i said preveiously further up in the thread i have my wheel so that the centering spring is set low (takes about 1 second to go from 90 dgrees of lock back to the centre). I think my pedals are fine, got the sensitivity on 50% and then throttle rate to 20%

Think Ive got real feel didn't really notice a difference lol was ages ago now though, when I couldnt keep it in a straight line so I guess I wouldn't have noticed any differences in the handling back then.
