"cockpitLookDeadZone" affects Centering Spring
"cockpitLookDeadZone" affects Centering Spring BADLY.
"cockpitLookDeadZone" should be at 0.000000. It looks like this is another "invention" of iRacing/Papyrus that messes FFB big time, messes it BADLY. Those people DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING *at all*. My god. Well, this is the biggest thing that I've found out so far. Along with the finding of the unlinearity, this is the most important, also. Those two things mess out FFB BIG TIME. I also figured out that Centering Spring slider should be at 100%. Well, this leaves me with five other sliders. Regarding driver's sliders, I am not sure. It could be that Spring and Damper should be at 100%, or Spring/Damper times Overall should be 100%. Regarding in-game sliders, I am pretty sure that Damping should be at 50%. Strength should be either at 50% (which is 30.0), or at 50.0. I had enough of testing for now, so I didn't figure out yet. But now that I've figured out this "cockpitLookDeadZone"/Centering Spring thing, everything will be easier. I'll just use some tricky conditions, like Dallara at Mid-Ohio, and this should show pretty clear what's going on. |

This is good baseline setting. I'll see if there is something to change here. |

So, I determined the "cockpitLookDeadZone" for my system, and it is 0.022. |

So, I determined the "cockpitLookDeadZone" for my system, and it is 0.022. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hm, interesting thing happened. I used 125/100/100/125, with cockpitLookDeadZone = 0.0215, and realized that Centering Spring is too high. So, I changed to 125/100/100/100, and realized that this needs different cockpitLookDeadZone. IOW, each Cenetring Spring likes different cockpiLookDeadZone. At Centering Spring at 100% I like 0.012. So, this would say that, the lower the Centering Spring, the lower is cockpitLookDeadZone. I'll test this some other day, but I presume that Centering Spring that likes cockpitLookDeadZone of 0.000000 should be not far below 100%. Maybe the goal actually is to find that Centering Spring that works with cockpitLookDeadZone of 0.000000. I am looking forward to see how this works (some other day). Thankfully, I figured out what happens if cockpitLookDeadZone is too high, so probably I will have no problems to find it. On Dallara it is easy to see what happens. Actually, too high cockpitLookDeadZone (which probably means too high screen latency) likes to spin the car. Probably too high default cockpitLookDeadZone in iRacing (0.050000) is actually what spins the car. |

So, it looks like it should be -/100/100/0. iRacing's recommendation is just the opposite, (100)/0/0/100. |

Instead, it looks like cockpitLookDeadZone is much higher than I thought, something like 0.16, or 0.17. |
