I actually am now addicted to World of Tanks!

This mixes the current FFB settings with the average to apply some filtering. So if like me you like some steering weight but don't want your desk shaken over the bumps at Lime Rock or hitting the ABS in an MX5 then this option can smooth things out. This will give Mario another 6 decimal places to play with - think of the combinations of filter+spring+damper+centre spring! |

I know about that, but I didn't try it yet. Supposedly this is for Fanatec wheels, which didn't surprise me (although I didn't try those wheels). Mario |

MY........... GOD > > Ok, I'll leave Damper and Spring at 100%, and Centering Spring is > more like 139% than 119%, I believe. Ok, interesting development. Regarding Centering Spring (CS), I figured out that all CS settings that worked well are related. These are those settings: 139, 119, 22. 139 is 39 above 100 119 is 19 (39/2) above 100 22 is 78 (39*2) below 100 So I figured out that 61 would also work well, as it does. But, if I put CS, Spring (S) and Damper (D) at 61, car drives and centers well, only D is clearly too low, it doesn't tame forces enough. OTOH, if I put D to 100 I have problems with controlling car. So, it looks like to set D correctly is critical, since wrongly set D can disturb forces and ruin your testing. Thankfully I understand D rightly, now. From previuos testings it looks like D should be 80-85 (it could be related to the Overall strength, which is 118, I don't know, I am not sure). So, everything goes well, I am on the right track, it shouldn't be hard to set D correctly, and CS also correctly, and I believe S should be the same of close to CS. So, hopefully within a week I'll get my settings rightly, only I have to test all those possibilities, and that's it, : ). Mario |
