Please note that Firmware settings must be set before changing the in-game settings. We advise that you follow the manufacturer’s guidance for adjusting your firmware settings. Within these guides, you may have the option to control different properties of your wheel, such as FFB strength, lockout angle, dead zones, etc.

When you first install your wheel, often the manufacturer will provide a guide on how to set up and calibrate your wheel. For example, Fanatec Firmware will use a different setting programme to Thrustmaster’s Firmware. Your firmware is provided via dedicated programmes supplied by the manufacturer or 3rd party applications. Firmware is your wheel’s specific settings, and act as a blanket setting for all games and Sims. The two things are separate and need to be configured separately. There is a lot of confusion when it comes to the differences between firmware settings and game settings. There are also some great articles written by and we would recommend reading. It is widely thought that direct drive steering wheels such as the Fanatec range provide a better feel than belt driven and gear driven wheels, like the Logitech and Thrustmaster’s.

Pro and Esport drivers will have this setting dialled in and will always have full sensory awareness of the car’s movement.Ī point to note the drive-type wheel you use, will ultimately limit the level of feel you can achieve.
When set correctly, you should be able to sense how the car is moving through the feeling in your hands, whether the car is understeering (feels light) or oversteering (sudden force) or even when the car is on its limit of grip. When the car turns into a bend, the weight of the car moves onto the outside wheels, as the weight transfers, the force through the steering wheel will change.
Most importantly, however, you want to feel the weight of the car. As a driver, you want to feel every kerb, every rumble strip and every bump in the road. It is therefore critical to have it set correctly.įFB should be as close to real-life driving as possible. It is important to understand that unless you own a motion rig, air padded seats or vibration plates, the only way you will get any ‘real world’ feedback from a racing game will be through your FFB. Simply put, the FFB provided by the game to your wheel, should replicate real-world turning forces. What is the Correct FFB? What does good FFB feel like?Ī quick definition describes FFB as the relative rotational force provided by the steering wheel to replicate the in-game steering wheel movements.

This will be covered in more detail below. Variations in driving technique and style will mean that there is no ‘one size fits all’ setting that works for everyone. Like all aspects of motorsport, the FFB settings may still require some adjustment to your personal preference. Also covered, is a section explaining your wheels specific Firmware settings. This article aims to give you a better depth of knowledge regarding the specific settings within ACC and the settings related to your particular setup. Unfortunately, there are now many different types of wheel, wheel-base, pedals and game settings that make understanding FFB confusing. Therefore, it is critical to have FFB set correctly.
Whether you are a new player to the popular SIM franchise or an experienced racer, there are some great tips included within this article to help you dial in like-for-like force feedback settings.įorce Feedback (FFB) is the main sensory input from the SIM to your body. This article is Driver61’s recommended FFB setup guide in Assetto Corsa Competizione on both Console and PC.
