steering wheel settings

[forddude]

I know we've delved in this world before but what the heck, it's a slow news night.....

With reference to a Logitech DFP......in the game what values are best for the various AXIS settings. How about the various RATES? What values do you assign them? In the controller.ini file is it proper to match the "STEERING WHEEL RANGE" value to what is in "DEGREES OF ROTATION" in the control panel/game controllers/properties?

"Inquiring minds want to know"

Thanks

Larry,

With my G25 that range is connected to the Degrees of rotaion I have assigned to my wheel. This is an ajustable vaulue allowing the driver to set wheel preferences. I perfer a wheel range that does not require me to cross my arms going lock to lock, in doing so the if you force the wheel beyound that range it really doesn't do anything because the range setting is like a combination of software and hardware stops setting your lock to lock range.

But in that summery I can just as well be mistaken, but that is how I understand it to work.

Since I use the Real Feel mod, I had to set the turning ratio for the wheel to 270 within the config file, which is about as close to the real maximum movement of the wheel as what is interpreted in Rfactor with the virtual cockpit wheel.
