rFactor 2 and SimuCUBE

Simucube 1 Games

Thanks! I look into it tonight.

567

Hi, I wanted to ask if with OSW rF2 it automatically changes the steering degrees according to the various cars as did the thrustmasters for example. Why do I change the steering degrees in game if in the file controllers and in the FW I put 900 0 1440 as maximum degrees. Theoretically if rF2 changes automatically according to the car’s degrees there should be no difference … thanks

568

If I recall correctly, 1440 is needed in order for both the Auto-Steering lock & visual wheel to work and sync properly.

Does anybody had the issue it didn’t detect the OSW wheel at all? When I try to assign the steering the window of “Assign control” stays open and does not go away. I’ve spent already hours looking for it and can seem te find it. Don’t know if it has anything to do with the json files or not?
Also when I press on controller it says no matching controller file was found. Can somebody shed some light what is maybe wrong with my configuration? I’ve added a print screen op my issue.
BTW Happy new year everyone!

if the json profile for your wheel is in it’s folder then something else is wrong , maybe the ui ? what exact model do you have ?

Hi Lucas,

I have a SC1 small mige 20nm version.
Below you will find the location and the controller.json file what should be the right location and content of it?

check at \Steam\steamapps\common\rFactor 2\UserData\Controller

something seems off in the device names , so check in the folder i told you to see if the default profile for osw has the same thing. “Device Name 1”:“SimuCUBE=#16d00d5a”, that is how i know it should be but recheck to be sure. Did this happen after you opted for the new ui ?

573

Ok Thanks I’ll check. Regarding your question of the UI I can’t tell it’s the first time I’m trying to get it working in ages. What I did do since I messed with the controller.json file was that I did a check integrity of the files.

574

@Loukas_Bourdas I changed the device name of order and now it’s working. Now I need to figure out the steering range cause I need to turn a lot to get in order to get a turn. My wheel range in SC is 1440 as wel as in the options in game. Do you have any settings you can share for steering range and ffb? Thanks

575

after i saw this : “Steering torque sensitivity”:0.275, i am sure this must be an old profile , why don’t you keep a backup of this and try loading the simucube profile ? I am suggesting this because i believe that steering torque sensitivity is better set = 1 .

As it stands now you have these settings :

if you have sc range set 1440 in order to work you should change them like this:

“Steering Wheel Maximum Rotation Default”:1440,
“Steering Wheel Maximum Rotation Default#”:“Default maximum wheel range to use when not read from driver, from 40 to 1440 degrees”,
“Steering Wheel Maximum Rotation from Driver”:false,
“Steering Wheel Maximum Rotation from Driver#”:“Whether to read the steering wheel rotation from the wheel driver, if possible”,
“Steering Wheel Range”:360,
“Steering Wheel Range#”:“Degrees of steering wheel rotation, both visual and physical (if available)”,
“Steering Wheel Software Rotation”:true,
“Steering Wheel Software Rotation#”:“Whether to limit the maximum steering wheel rotation in software”,

360 is the number that could be anything since it keeps the rotation of the last car you used , so if you have another don’t alter it.

Ofc as it has been mentioned already you should not make changes in your controller.json but it is better to load the default profile for your wheel , asign axis buttons etc and save it with a specific name from within the ui and if you need to alter anything you can find it inside the folder \Steam\steamapps\common\rFactor 2\UserData\Controller . After changing what you need you just reload it ingame.

I applied your settings unfortunately it still is acting weird. So in order to excluded corrupted files etc I removed the game and the settings. Does anybody now if their is a step by step guide for this game and OSW wheels. I spent already couple of hours and I can’t get it to work…

I read from the 429 post to the end and followed the instructions of @Loukas_Bourdas and @morOSWer.
One thing which I did not understand tho is what changes are expected in feeling opting for “Steering resistance type” if I use damping (0) or Friction (1). Also If I choose damping, do I need to enabled DI damping for it to work or does it work with no need to set a value in the DI field of Simucube? Same for Friction? Third doubt is regarding to Spring, does it work along with Damping or Friction or works by it is own? Thx a lot in advance, game already feels much better than before.

I can’t describe the feeling difference between the two but there is one and you could try it , but which one is better is subjective.

You do not need to enable Di damping or Di Friction in order for the change to work.

If you mean Di spring, if is shows as active you can use the slider to use it along with any other di that shows as active. I do not remember though what di filters work for rf2.

But if you mean the spring in other filters aswell as the other filters (damping etc) , those work either way if you enable them.

As I recall experimenting with those parameters in rF2, I agree with your response.

I would only add that the Direct-Input Spring effect does seem to impact the overall steering resistance (or Self-aligning Torque) level. I settled on a Spring setting of about 30% after some testing. More than that seem to make the steering quite heavy (Straight-line driving), too little, and the wheel would feel too light near center.

I really should re-visit the Spring effect again to see if I can resolve that finding with wheel Friction / Damping.

Hello everybody. you can share your settings that you use in Rfactor-2

Hi Marco,

I have modified some parameters and RF2 is not so rude in this way to me.

Settings

I keep trying to improve it although these little changes make me feel comfortable to take curbs, feel the road but smooth and don’t kill my arms driving the sim :smile:

Greetings.
