F1 2016 Alternative Handling

Recommended Posts

We knows that Codemasters get Handling with some parameters to improve and for you can feel the car the more realistic possible, ok. 

This should be amazing in a Steering Wheel, 
and is very good for controllers (not amazing also in controller, what would be fantastic), so, I try to improve the Handling trough Advanced Wheel Settings that affect the controller, as well Wheel, fine. 
But just with Linearity, Dead Zone, and Saturation, and only for up, don't allow you edit this Settings to down... based on the pattern of Codemasters for X-Box One, for example. 

What I do? 
Use a technique that I learn here in the forum, 
that a user told me, that consists in change function of button by button until (the main that is direction for left and right and (if needed) make this is for break and throttle), but the main is direction, because I feel me more safe with less Dead Zone, play in a controller is hard, in Elite mode, as I like, no assists. So after you leave this buttons with another command, can be inverted (for example, Left=Right and Right=Left or without command) you return the commands to original, that's Left=Left, and Right=Right. In F1 2015 you could feel a big difference, I believe that is because of Handling of 2015 promote this. In F1 2016 I had a doubt, because the changes are more smooth. So a made some tests and confirmed that yes, when you do this steps, get the Handling of way totally clear, without parameters, like you have with a generic controller that Codemasters don't take support. 
With this setting for X-Box One Controller, you can drive much better is some a aspects, like centralize the car on track to help for enter in a corner, for example, very closed is more easy, because you need more sensibility of direction, and of a way linear, not with difference in determineds points of move (no linear). 

Codemasters, facilitates our lifes! 
Put a Checkbox for it! To leave the Handling natural, just because it's needed, if not, I'm not would do it... Is, practically impossible play with the default X-box One Controller in a high level... I tried by more than 200 laps and no get a consistent result so... but with generic controller I get a help to make corners more precises at least.

A thread that I open in the past, request this:

+1 on this. The xbox 360 pad handling on PC isn't too bad but the fact you can't put the saturation values any lower than what's basically given you is a huge issue. No matter how sensitively you feather the throttle it's just way too much on these triggers. Just the option to have it lower than the default lowest would make a world of difference.

I'm... sorry.  I really want to understand what you're saying, and it's clear that English is not your first language, but I just can't makes heads from tails of this post.  If someone can please translate this, or link to the other thread on the forum where this poster learned the tip from, it would be greatly appreciated.

It's simple, F1 2016 - X-Box One Controller - default present of Advanced Handling need to be improved! For better performance, though I know that can loose the realistic simulation of a Wheel, but already that we are playing with a controller, is better to favor the performance!
And you can get this if you put the controller of a generic way, resetting commands and reinserting how was.

I used PC with a Xbox controller but I prefer the PS3, so I installed driver for my PS3 controller and I am now using it, so does it do the trick?

Maybe, if the game speak that your controller don't have support in start screen, can be using of a generic way... 

Or you need to make tests, 
follow the steps, and look for Hud in the Acceleration and Break, if you feel difference...

Update
By end, I understand that a great player is able to win in any situation because the practice take to the perfection, the mind auto adapt to it, I should to train more, much more, and I can get result, success in times. 
F1 2016 have a Handling model much smooth, better than 2015, in 2016 you feel the car in your hands. The improve no need in the game, but in me. I just considering that should have the possibilities to charge values of Advanced Wheel to down, beyond of up. Add this, please, Codemasters!
