As ever with all the conflicting information out there, looking for more! lol, looking for reputable FFB settings to use.

Cant find explanations for the FFB settings and what they change.

Wheel seems good on first try but the bodnar cable to allow me to use my G27 pedals seems to have made the signal very jittery  Huh

I think i'm going in circles with it all! AC please. Do you use the t500 preset? Finding the FFB alot more subtle, but even with it realtively low (70-80%) it still clips a bit in some corners.

Seems a number of people drop the spring and damper to 0% But found the damper added a bit of weight to the wheel which felt nice.

In Windows I have...
900 degrees
Overall strength 75%
Constant, Periodic, Spring, Damper all at 100%
Auto-center is set to "by the game"
Firmware version is 24, Driver is 2.8.16.0

In game I think I did originally select T500 but it's been tweaked...
888 degrees (I think that's what the in game calibration brought it out to)
Gain 60% - This is so I can run 100% in the car setups because that's the default I don't want to have to keep changing it in every car.
Filter 0%
Dampening 0%
Min Force 5%
Kerb 90%
Road 80%
Slip 20%
Steering gamma 1
Filter 0
Speed Sensitivity 0
Brake Gamma 1 (because I'm using load cell Clubsport v2 pedals), so not sure what that should be for G27, probably 2.4 or something?!

Cheers for that Shark.

Does seem to be two camps, leave windws at defaults or change spring and damper to 0. My normal reaction is to drop the kerb and road and a boost up slip but i'll try it our first.

Never touch the Windows settings as then you have a common base to change your games from. They are also the defaults for a reason.

In the past years, I tried several settings with AC, which ended me up with a mix of settings and made the FFB horrible and the game not enjoyable.
Decided to make a fresh install and delete all my preferences and try again.
This time I went for the settings found on the RD forum, by some guy called FatAlfie and the settings feel great. Eventhough lots of things are turned off, I actually feel so much more and it's a lot more realistic than any settings I had before. Here is what I've got now:

Windows Profiler

Rotation: 1080
Overall strength: 85
Periodic: 0
Spring: 0
Damper: 0
Auto center: By the wheel 0

In game

Gain: 50
Rest all on 0

Assetto_Corsa.ini (X:\Steam\SteamApps\common\assettocorsa\system\cfg)

[FORCE_FEEDBACK]
FF_SKIP_STEPS=0               ; Physics engine steps to skip in order to accomodate wheels with lower FF input buffer

[FF_EXPERIMENTAL]
ENABLE_GYRO=0
DAMPER_MIN_LEVEL=0.1
DAMPER_GAIN=1.0    ; Set to 0 for Logitech g920

ff_post_process.ini (X:\Steam\SteamApps\common\assettocorsa\cfg)

[HEADER]
VERSION=1
TYPE=GAMMA
ENABLED=1

[GAMMA]
VALUE=0.85


Maybe this will work with other wheels other than the T500RS.
