my big mige is stronger, I had to reduce FFB in the game (so far only AC tested). Cannot say if more detailed, but in every case not worse as before. No oscillation, even no gyro enabled (AC). No peaking filter, only damping(4%), torque bandwidth 1000MHz, reconstruction filter 2.
Mine also feels weaker with 0.82 but with more FFB detail with a more loose center feel, I prefer the greater detail but most can always turn up the amps to compensate.
Only use iRacing
In AC I have no Oscillations, only iRacing and Pcars2.
First impressions low end ffb Seems weaker but high end feels stronger. Tonight Iām going to do back to back comparison with .71 and .81 with the f2004.
Hi guys. iRacing, Small mige, simcube, testing done with 0.7 and 0.8 using V8 supercar and HPD.
0.7 was a little disconnected between the sounds I was hearing and what I was feeling. Instant improvement over MMoS in general wheel feel and curb strikes etc. Just didnāt have a handle on the traction loss at either end.
0.8 was a much better experience for me. I was able to drive without thinking about the osw or FFB. It feels natural and life like. I run 47MN in iRacing and 6Amps, due to being a wuss and I had slight drop in the strength.
For what itās worth and if it helps etc etc. Keep up the great work though. ā¦ Now is there a ādoffās his hatā emoticon around hereā¦
I have been doing some testing with 0.8.2 today and have to research out a couple of things (discuss with Mika) ā¦ But what I have found so far is that there is more Center range detail coming throughā¦ which is allowing me to drop both my inertia and Dampening setting slightly while retaining the natural feeling I am looking forā¦ This of course reduces the filter weight on the wheel making it feel lighter. BTW running Large Mige 25A 100%.
Now that being said I have noticed an interesting thing in that the different Reconstruction fillers are even FURTHER different from each otherā¦ What used to be a difference between 5 and 7 of only the feel of more Inertia has now turned into even MORE Inertia and More Dampening as well with a deadness in the center due to a high speed transition of force over centerā¦ And then with Recon #1 it used to be a feel of just more information coming through but now it is rougher along with a greater heaviness in the wheel when turning. So I think there was additional processing that was unintended after the Reconstruction filter that was smoothing the signalā¦
BTW I am still mainly using Recon filter 5
Hi,
Where can we get the 0.8.2 fw?
The normal SimuCUBE firmware download page which is linked in the SimuCUBE firmware guide
I was looking here in the forum, thanks a lot Beano.
Cheers bud
Mika usually post the updates here: SimuCUBE Open Source Firmware Public Beta release thread
For me v0.8 is much much better! The wheel feels much more alive, specially in the center. I feel I could get just a tiny bit of damping to put some weight when on straights or not taking a proper turn, but I can feel again all the weaker forces aroung the center of the wheel and thats the most important change! Overall, the wheel feels just a tiny bit lighter than before, using the same configuration.
I went back to 7.1.
Strange thing with 8.2 is, in my case the wheel got so numb and weak arround the center, even when I increased the force by 40-60Nm in iRacing to get similar strength, I could not feel any road texture or any of the rumble strips.
If you raise the force the wheel will weaken is my understanding.
Yes, in iRacing and having linear Nm visible mode enabled, increasing the force reading there will increase the clipping point of the force, thus making forces generally lower.
Yes, I know I raised the force by āloweringā the Nm scale.
what servo are you using?
Small Mige with 12.86A at 100%, rf 3, tb unlimited, dampening 0.3%, friction 0.2%, inertia 0.6%
my test so far in AC. Small mige, 100% force, RF2, 12A, tb 650hz.
0.7 : the forces in the game are strong. I can feel the rubber of the tyres, and not much the micro details of the road. I can feel the grip.
0.8 : the forces are weaker. I can feel more details butI donāt have the rubber feeling. More direct feeling of the curbs but less grip sensation (meaning when the tyres load on corner).
I will continue the testing but I think that I need to raise the RF up to 4 or 5 and the forces in game (maybe 10% more).
I agree that the feeling of grip-loss was better in FW-v0.7 and in v0.8, it just feels a bit more vague.
Iām using AC / AMS / rF2 and some PC2 for comparison.
