G27 problem(s)

hi everybody,

I having some troubles with my G27, particulary with the new toyota...
so, when i start the engine in the box, car stopped, my wheel turn left and right by itself very hard.
I have that too in straight line.
Second problem, only on interlagos, just after the green light in the pit, turn 1 (but in the pit lane) my wheel turn by itself, and in the turn 7 too.

Not pleasant to drive with that, if somebody has an idea

check:
-no help driving in option game
-re-install profiler of logitech
-trying to decrease ffb, steering filter....no option in game change something, i have all try

no problem like that with other car at this point
i think it comes from controller.json but i'm not very good for change something in this file
 
Increase your "Smoothing" in controls, decrease your "Steering Lock" in setup - the TS040 is pretty much identical to the 919 and the R18 when is comes to controls and suspension.
 
smoothing is on 20
i will try to decrease steering lock this afternoon, 900 degrees for the moment.
i have the same setting in profiler and in game since i have rfactor2, that is the first time it make that issue comes with the new full mod.
 
I have with the logitech profiler around 400°, ffb to 102%, no spring and smoothing and "settings in game allowed to change profiler settings to NO.
In game smoothing is around 4-10(depends on car and track, ffb in game just around 0.5 to 0.45 (depends on clipping)
For me, the lmp1 and 2 cars are in terms of ffb a fraction rougher that the gte cars, but really just a fraction and overall good to drive.

However, the new lmp cars are way better on ffb than the old r18.
I just can say thank you to the vec staff for releasing these car
 
absolutely, ffb is better than the old r18, much better...
my set is a bit different than your oliver so i will try that too, because i really affraid of breacking my wheel for the moment such the clapping is hard
thanks for your response and i will come back after testing
 
Wow, 20 in smoothing is ALOT already. I use 400 deg. for my G25, 2-4 in smoothing and usually around 10-12 as steering lock in garage setup. But G27 seems to produce more jitter.
 
But with my game 4 or 20....thats change anything at all, use 900 and 25 degree in game steering lock, if i want my car turn, just to go out of the pit for exemple ;) BUT I HAVE "allow the game to change...." On yes in my profiler maybe thats it, but my setting is from a thread find on vec forum so.....
 
Guess another G27 user will have to help out here, I don't get any of these issues. And yes with 900 deg you need a higher steering lock. Have you tried to turn down the "Power" or what ever it's called ? Same window as "Smoothing" - to 75% as an example.
 
What do you mean by "power"?
I'm at work, so i think i will put some pic of my setting: profiler, ingame, maybe controller.json at lunchtime
 
ok, i just take a look on the link you give above, in the video, "steering torque minimum" too high, that's exactly what's happen to me when i start my engine, in very very much unwanted oscillation....
so i will read the all explanation this afternoon, and i think that's will help me good, thank you very much tomas
 
ok i have tried and one good news and one bad......
shaking wheel owhen i start engine has stopped with "steering torque minimum" with put 0.01, just good vibration as real....
THE bad news....when i drive , i have still the problem i have notice above: turn 1 and turn 7 particulary, the wheel turn by it self like i had assistance but suddenly with hard oscillation, and still the same thing in straght line
so i go for a test with overlay plugin and watch what it happen
 
You didn't accidently click "Reversed FFB" did you ? Rfactor(1) used this, not Rfactor2, it sounds really weird.
 
well, i remember on rfactor1 i put - (negative) but in game setting..... where do you find "reversed ffb", in game setting on rfactor2? profiler? sorry
 
for info if you want this is my ffb:

ok after all an afternoon of test and re-install totally rfactor2, i have found what is wrong ut i dont know how to fix it
the problem of hard sudennly shaking or oscillation of my wheel is when i turn it more than 90 degrees left or right. the thing is that "steering wheel range is locked" on 612.....whatever i put in the profiler....
for exemple turn 1 and 7 i have to turn my wheel at 110 degrees maybe more, in other curves i don't turn it more than 90degrees, and the ffb feels good, as soon as it exceeds 90, the wheel give me some shit reactions.
So i think i have to change steering wheel change, but it don't save it if i do manually.....i have tried to change sensivity but don't works anymore
