I have never heard of anyone playing with the app.ini file setting you are discussing. It will be interesting if you found something Magic!
What motor and encoder do you have with your SC1?
Small Mige will be more active and large Mige will be more dampened and dull.
What NM are you set at in iRacing? A good range is 50-60nm and adjust the overall force in the SC1 Software to get the wheel how heavy you want.
Need to make sure you are not clipping the detail.
Oh yes been following Brionās guides for years! Heās a good bloke.
I bought a MiGE 130ST-M10010 off Sim-plicity about 3 years ago. I do run 50-60 for the GT cars and 40-45 for the Porsche GT4 and cup car. Open wheelers Iām still testing.
In Rfactor2 and ACC its superb but as I said Iracings FFB for me is heavy and dull. I mean last night I was ready to jack it all in as I trying to practise in the AMG but the hairpins at Donington where driving me nuts! I couldnāt feel anything from the back end and it kept on slipping out. Till today that is!!
What you have found basically is what it says it is⦠At the cost of a little Latency (processing time) it averaged 6 samples from the 360Hz telemetry system into the 60Hz sent⦠It is sort of like a pre-smoothing system. it is generally off for speed of information flow. in many cases it wonāt make much difference to the feel so I am surprised that you have had such a dramatic fell change with it⦠but it can help eliminate some spikiness which also strangely would dull the signal.
I am guessing that your settings are with the Newest Firmware as they would be quite high for the pre 1.0 and you mention CF⦠Generally my feeling is that the Small mine required little to no Inertial⦠If you translate the settings that I came up with along time ago to the small mige they would be:
honestly I am not sure they would be much better than what you have but a reduction in Friction and Inertia will add response to the wheel and lighten it up a bit⦠His inertia settings resist turn-in weighting the wheel while friction adds overall weight to the wheel so both of those things being higher add weight where you say you are not wanting it.
Brion thanks for the reply mate, it really has changed the feel for me in Iracing plus I can run a lower recon setting without the notchyness you would normally feel. Still doing testing but finding 3-4 to be pretty good for me. Yes using the latest firmware so will try no inertia.
I can image that this question is raised already a million of times but recently I have started using iRacing again. I was wondering if anybody has a link where I can find current good settings with the latest firmware of Simucube? Also who is using iRFFB and who not and why? I know that the settings a personal preference but itās hard to find a good baseline since most videoās and settings look outdated. Iāve tried the settings of Augury but they donāt seem to work for me. I always felt that iRacing is missing a lot of details in itās FFB compared with AC and ACC. Current settings in Simucube are the ones of SKeijmel
Lower the reconstruction filter if you want to feel more detail.
Be aware if you set the filter real low or off some of what you feel is not necessarily FFB from the Sim. some of what you will be feeling is signal noise.
Also in iRacing set the force up to 50-60nm and lower force in Simucube software to your liking.
In theory in iRacing the higher the overall strength of the wheel will determine the amount of detail you feel.
Hey Dennis
I used to use much higher recon, but in the last few months I went back to a version of older settings that I prefer. This is with a Biss-C encoder, but these may not feel the same with the older 10K encoders that came with the device when I got mine in 2017.
As you can see I am running lower power in the Simucube, so that I can make sure most cars in iRacing are within 50-65NM since thatās the sweet spot to get as much detail from iRacing as possible.
Cool, I going to try this cause yesterday I fiddled around with some settings in combination with the irFFB and since then my ffb is complete gone. When I use other titles such as AC & ACC the FFB is still working like it should. Iām really having a hard time with iRacing. BTW Iām still using the old enconder the10k version. Do you guys also use the irFFB or is it overkill?
I do not use irFFB, have tried it in the past but to be honest I never really noticed any real difference.
Changing a few sliders in the Simucube software should not have killed your FFB completely, and you should have been able to return them if it did, so thatās odd. Unless you were in the actual Granity software poking around with settings not in the Simucube desktop app?
If you still donāt have any FFB you can always run the Simucube setup again from the app, which likely will resolve things.
Or if things still donāt work, then try this option on the āAdvancedā tab, but backup your profile settings (I would take an image of slider positions using Win 10 snip and sketch tool rather than backing up the profiles just in case something in the profile is corrupt):
When I removed the iRacing profile in Simucube and recreated one with your settings it was top notch.
So that did the trick for me. However the settings are better now it still notice a difference with my old setting that are gone. I think I still have to play around with the settings in the hope finding some really good setting. Thanks for your assistance @GlobeSpy
Glad itās working better. If you still feel some unwanted āwheel noiseā due to the 10K encoder, maybe increase recon to 4 or 5 should smooth things.
Cheers.
As @GlobeSpy mentioned with the 10K it is a bit noisier in feedback than the BiSS so there might be reason to either use a higher Recon or even irFFBā¦
In practice if you want a straight feedback recreation irFFB is not needed when using the Reconstruction Filter⦠HOWEVER, if you do wish to use any of the telemetry effects that irFFB offers you will of course need to run itā¦
The 60-65 Max Force number still applies to use through irFFB, the difference is that number is set in irFFB instead of iRacing.
Youāre right,
when iRacing are started, āFrictionā are the problem.
When you set it to 200% its louder to hear.
And its the only effect that active.
