so...... my question would be is there a 'cleaning' effect? do the 1st few runners suffer from sweeping the road(dry stages), then the stage hits the sweet spot, then tails off as lots more cars run the stage? or is 1st on the road getting the most grip? MM

its stopped me from playing at this point. how am i supposed to press a button for handbrake once VR comes along?? its bad enough as it is. my handbrake works fine on ALL other supported games its getting a wiff of SLRE now with the lack of progress with this issue, and iv lost confidence in CodeMasters products at this point, id have bought F1 2019 already but for this, and its not something new from what other forums have said about F1 2018 and D4 MM

PC steam all the time wales rally, sweetlamb stage, intermittant water splash, also wipers dont always auto wipe after going through ford.... not that theres much water ha also, the sound (not sound cut out bug) of the car on replays keeps disappearing, all other sounds like skids and rain ok, but no engine sounds with certain camera angles MM

i used to enjoy the ballance of going quick enough to win vs ruining the car and losing all me pole dancer money on headlights and bonnets, but after 4 career wipes iv given up on that side of things for a while now, do the odd daily but impossible to go fast as most of me cars havnt been chipped up. online events need a rethink really MM

linearity set to 0 will cause slow wheel rotation, i believe 50 is 1 to 1 steering, 100 causes the wheel to move faster? could also be a conflict between logitech profiler degrees of rotation and in game degrees if they have different valus (900 vs 720 example) MM

iv given up waiting for a fix on this, i STILL cant use ALL of my USB controller devices because of the USB polling issue, iv a handbrake and gearbox that are pluggd in briefly to stop the stutter, then have to be removed to prevent the stutter returning...... EVERY F*****G TIME I START IT UP! frankly, not good enough CM, iv been one of your biggest supporters on this game, buy youve p*55*d on me mr chips now MM

no way, it worked, nice 1 mate 😉 MM

no probs pal, i figured this is like finding the bass guitar on 'and justice for all' ha ok, were using a TM-TX base so basically a t300... ish changed XML FFB from 1.0 (default is 0.9 on my wheel) to 4.0 (or 400%) SAT lowered from 100 to 20(gravel) 40(tarmac) and 50(snow/sweden) tyre friction 30 wheel friction 30 suspension 25 collisions 30 all other settings none adjustable in game for my wheel tyre/wheel/suspension and collision are all to your taste but dont go too high as they will muddy out the road effects, you will need to adjust the SATS for different surfaces, and to your own taste and again, dont go too high. thrustmaster profiler is set to default(constant/periodic/spring=100), 720degrees rotation and 90% overall FFB and the difference? slightly lighter wheel(again, preference) but now when i cut a corner, i can feel the 'Bumps' infact at high speed, the wheel is nearly ripped out of my hand, so be careful!! the road noise differs from country to country, new zealand is smooth, other than the bumps at the side of the road and the jump impacts not much has changed, but australia i can now feel the ruts and other subtleties that were missing, and i have more control over the car as i can fell more going on, which is reflecting in my stage times. i will be tweeking slightly, but these are good baseline setting for someone with similar wheel MM the TLDR shizzle, the maths behind whats going on, so you can adjust and fine tune your own settings or atleast understand what to do with default CM FFB game settings, the road noise and impacts(bumps/corner cuts) are at about 10% in the mix and are none adjustable, the SAT is at 100% in the FFB mix and IS adjustable So, we need to raise the road noise/bumps to a higher level, changing the XML FFB to 4.0 from 1.0 gives us 4x more FFB across the FFB mix, so we have now raised the road noise/bumps to 40 from 10 (10x4=40) but the SAT is now at 400, we need to lower this as A: it will snap wrists, and B: it will be killing the road/bumps in the mix still. lowering the SAT to 20 effectively now changes it to 20% of 400, which is 80, 20 lower than default from CM, changing to 25 would be back to 100 SAT(default) 25x4=100 wheel and tyre friction set to 30 from 100 gives us an actual in game value of 120(30x4) i hope this helps a few folks in whats going on and understanding the graph

nice 1 mate, after some messing about iv managed to get really good FFB now with lots of road feel and BUMPS hahaahahaa the graph helped in figuring out what was actually going on. good work 😉 MM

i found the tyre life to be abit dependant on the car, theres some stuff in this thread to have a browse over regarding tyres https://forums.codemasters.com/topic/35154-tyre-life-and-running-order/ MM

no IC scoop on the bonnet/hood, its the WRC alright 😉

The USB polling issue is my biggest problem at the moment, stuttersville with more than 1 usb device(controller) plugged in MM

Platform : PC Issue/Bug : all sound goes off except for gravel hitting the car frequency : Random, but ONLY when playing the 'online only' career/daily events/monthly events, i have NEVER had this issue in TT mode, and i play mostly in TT mode MM

coming back to this an Audi Quattro group B destroyed a set of soft tyres at the 12 mile mark on australia(worn surface), service shown that tyres needed changing. so the softs only last for 2 short stages, a short and a long and you'll probably be out of rubber on gravel(in group B) the tests continue ha MM
