Is the Forza Motorsport CSR Wheel any good??
a couple of days ago I read a post on Thomas's blog about linearity being more realistic in "normal" than in "simulation" steering and it has changed everything. Using it 900° full time now and it is such a pleasure. Amazing resolution on input an the minutia of details you get through FFB gives you so much information to work with and lets you drive much closer to the edge.
Arrgghh! - No wonder my M3 felt like it was on ice a lot of the time Monday night! This explains a lot. Ive always used 900o with simulation steering, and was sure it felt much more twitchy - will have to try it on "normal" steering before the next round
Thank you Steve, it helped a lot.
Cheers.
LOL, you evilGlad to hear Paulo, look out 4th place- Paulo's coming!
There was a very interesting post on F-wheel.com about how all Fanatec wheels use their FFB setting in wheel as an FFB limiter, not a scaling factor. Before I saw that, I'd assumed that 100 in game and 40 on wheel would be identical to 40 in game and 100 on wheel, but it's not. I recommend you try switching around, see what you think. You'll probably end up lowering your drift mode setting too.Well had a quick go with Forza this morning and tried Normal steering - felt much better and I beat my lap time on Nurb GP in 2 laps Definately going to stick with Normal for a while........
As for my settings (PWTS wheel) :-
SENS - OFF
FF - 40
Sho - 40
Dri - 4
Abs - 85
Lin - 000
Dea - 000
Spr - (-3)
Dpr - (-2 )
All in game settings default.

I was also wondering why you have Spr and Dpr settings non-zero for Forza, since Fanatec themselves constantly state that these settings do absolutely nothing in Forza. Are you absolutely sure these settings are doing anything?
