This looks good. I might give this another go, i tried the first beta, and the physics were undriveable.

They were indeed. Hopefully that wayward rear end has now been sorted a little better and now finally with the addition of TC, people of all skill levels can have a good go with it.
Nice going guys, thanks for this update !

I still find the FFB too strong and spikey on my G25.
Inside sounds overlap too much, you can clearly hear two sounds at the same time for a tto long period. When I looked into the sfx this is indeed a too great overlap in rpm’s.

Yes it’s true. I will create absolute new sounds for this mod, and this will be in next update!

Thanks for your reply Emerico
Will there in the next patch be a more smooth FFB? On my G25 it is very strong and not smooth enough imo.
If that would be the case together with better sounds settings, this will be a great mod and fun to drive!

I believe the problem with the steering is the setting in the .hdv file.
SteeringFFBMult=4
as it is set to now is way to much. It works like a gain setting which makes the forcefeedback none-linear which is useless. Idelly it should be on 1.0 but many mods use 1.5.
Don´t know why they do that but thats how it is. If all mods just had 1.0 we could set how strong we want the feedback to be in our wheels.

Or even make SteeringFFBMult an upgrade, for instance 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0. So people can choose. I see this in more mods and I always choose 1.0 if possible, but this way people who want it stronger can also have it without mismatches.
