The difference should definitely be quite apparent when stepping up from the 5k encoder. I noticed quite an improvement from the 5k to the 10k / 40kppr.
One of the most important things here is how much definition you get without arm wrestling with your wheel.
In previous setup I had to raise the strength too high to get decent feedback but that also meant fighting too much with the wheel.
This effects your lap time in the long run. I prefer to fight less (still strong but not arm ripping strong), still get tons of feedback and donât need to give up lap time over feedback.
Today I installed my Heidenhain SinCos encoder from simtronix and now I have a weird behaviour in Dirt Rally.
In the menus the wheel is slightly oscillating (a few mms) as soon as DR starts and the friction filter in SimuCube is turned on (amplitude is proportional to the filter setting) - it stops as soon as the stage is starting.
Even when I quit DR the oscillation is present in the windows desktop until I move the friction slider to 0%.
This was definitely not happening with the standard 40k encoder of the small Mige. It could be that there was a slight ffb present with my G25 that was maybe to small for the old encoder, but I canât renember exactly.
R3E and AC donât have this issue, so not sure if any other game would show.
Tried several Recon filter settings, but there was no change.
Ah, thank you very much. Completely my fault, sorry for this. I forgot that i had to install this driver on my racing pc when i switched to the new firmware. Thank you very much for your fast help, maybe Tomo can integrate this in his tutorial too.
Tried and it worked without problems now. Thank you.
One last thing, is it possible that you integrate in the next firmware release the degress symbol ° in for the profiles, that we can use for example rFactor 2 540° for profile names?
The profile names are stored as 8-bit ASCII characters in the memory, and I deliberately limited the characters so that only the characters that are usually needed and that have most likely the same decimal (and hexadecimal) value in every character set around the world. This is to ensure that user wonât ever be able to type 16-bit characters on to that field, as that would then start to overwrite other settings data with the profile name quite easily.
I will investigate whether the degrees symbol is always defined in the correct way and try to add it.
Thank you, this would be a nice update as for example in rF2 you need so many different degress settings and the symbol ° would make the profiles more nicer to look on it. Thank you Mika for your time! )
