G25 vs. G27 in GSC

[Patrick Giranthon]

Hi.
I have just recevied my new G27.
After some tests, I have two conclusions that disapoint me.

1- on the straight lines, the G25 has vibrations. The G27 has not (unless you start to turn the wheel)...
2- the FFB is really stronger on the G25.

These two points make the game really more realistic on the G25. I have to precise that the conditions were exactly the same : FFB to full, strenght to -100. Drivers : Logitech v5.10.
If I put the strenght at 101% or more in the g27 settings, the car is undrivable.
Any solution? Any modification in the controler.ini???

Many Thanks for your help.

In fact, after many tests, the G25 has a better feeling with a stronger FFB. I really feel the road, even if the G27 is a great wheel.
On the forums, many people take about the "smoothy' aspect of the G27.
Now I know what it means.
It is only because I can compare the two models that I can notice the difference. The G27 is a good wheel.
For this game, the G25 is just better...

A friend of mine has made the same test, but with Race07 and his own wheels.
Same conclusion : FFB is lower and there are less feeling details with the G27...

what game?

Did u uninstall and reinstall drivers when switching wheels? I would

TBH I thought the exact same thing when I raced around a friends with his G27, it seemed so loose compared to my G25. I just thought it must have been the settings. Perhaps not !

Maybe this feeling has something to do with the new helical gears used by the G27 ?

I have the same speed with a shitty wheel vs g27 especially in gsc

Have you tried CRTL7 and CRTL9?

Looking at the controller files, I see G25 and G27 files look exactly the same.
Why not try editing some of the settings in there?

Great adjusts to g 27.
I hope it can help you.
Dont forget 540 degree settings.

Simply put, the G25 have a stronger motor/FFB than G27. If you can grab a 25 still working at ebay or similar, get it. Extra buttons aren't worth the FFB strength loss on the 27. Logitech made a step back in this particular case, IMO.

Strange, my whole house shakes when driving rf2 with the g27, try that sim for a test please? Would be interesting to hear the response.
