I'm thinking that this game is not for me 
at least not yet... G29 feels just too light for me can't get used it... second because of that I end up having massive understeer then oversteer at the exit of the corner even while going a lot slower than everyone else would.... I love this sim but I would prefer to drive one of such cars IRL first before I could compare and learn how to drive them properly and I'm too poor to buy a DD wheel to turn up the FFB at the base up to 20NM...

I stripped mine down and removed the rubber bung. I still have a progressive firmer spring in there so it feels fairly brake pedal like and still needs some pressure to hit 100% but I would like to see a saturation or calibration function so I can refit the rubber back in so it gets really firm for the last few%. Depending on how confident you are pulling things apart it's easy to do but not for everyone.
Also can I add I noticed that I could not hit 100% even with the rubber removed when I tested it as working before I put it back together. I found this was because I had mounted the pedal on the left set of mounts to space them. I moved it to the central set of screws and it's fine. I think mounting off centre causes some twist on the pedal not fully activating the brake potentiometer as a result.

I was actually thinking about plugging it to the computer to try calibrating the brake pedal to be at 100 while you’re only pressing 80. Not sure if it’s possible but worth a try. I don’t know if you try to mod it just for ACC. It feels great with f1 2019, GTS and PC2. Thanks for your input.

I tried this through logitech gaming software as I thought it was possible too but it seems to make no difference. I tried at 60% as I could barely hit the before my seat starts to lift. I then cut the rubber down a bit using a high tech bread board and kitchen knife method which enabled me to hit 90 - 92% but it still leaves that last 10% for when you really need to stand on the stoppers. I checked the percentages in Dirt Rally 2's input reporting.

Do you mean the actual wheel settings you can go into on PC before starting up a game?
It would be great if someone who has a copy on PC and PS4 and uses a G29 could try both versions with the same in game wheel settings. See if there’s something going on with the console version. I’m adamant there’s something not quite right going on.

I’ve had the stability control off completely and at 40% (what I had it on on AC). Still get the same pulling into corners on either but would need to test out for sure. I just don’t trust the game as there could be so many bugs in this that you change one thing, and it inadvertently changes something else unbeknownst to you.
Trouble was in cars that had very little feeling (Lexus felt really bad in Zandvoort compared to Lambo) with stability control off, it was almost impossible to catch a slide in fast corners because of the lack of feel.

I'm on PS4 using a G27 with the Drivehub adapter. It works perfectly! Here's the settings I like:
Gain - 80% (Like the TC said, at 100% it rattles too much)
Minimun Force - 0%
Dynamic Damping - 150%
Road Effects - 20%
Steer Lock - 540°
Steer Linearity - 1.00
Brake Gamma 1.00

Hello everyoneI might've stumbled on something here
proper FFB but from my experience the degree is at 900 and if you go into setting then you lose that proper FFB. I don't know I might just get used to 900 degree with FFB than 620 without feeling a thing
Hello, I tried this trick and works wonders: actually I inadvertedly activated it already once but lost it and didn't know how to regain, so thank you very much...
Problem is, or could be, I red elsewhere that the wheel at this stage is like constantly at 100% FFB regardless the software input, thus possibly resulting in damaging or even breaking it... What's your op? Did you keep it that way? I like the resistance very much myself cause I can be more precise in taking corners as well, but... No at the expense of theG29!!
Hi, are you still driving this mode? I'd like to but I red it could be dangerous for the wheel itself...
Do you thik it's false alarm? Not too expert in devices I happen to be...

no I stopped using it like that after getting mad yesterday because I have a quite short temper especially when blaming everything on me anyway Use this as reference
watch closely how he steers and with not really much effort and pay attention on his driving style let the car coast a bit you just have to learn to control it after clearing my mind from gt sport, watching this video and having a nice strong coffee I went back on track and immedietalystarted making progress with new settings I'll post them later on and yes do use steering angle designed for each car - 1

So this is what I did to get the right feel on my wheel,when in garage go to set of have the view from inside the cockpit with the wheel visible,turn your wheel all the way to the left or right and if it does not match the wheel in the car play around with the wheel rotation until it does,sorted my wheel out big time,feels as good as anything

So far I've been most confortable with the settings I posted above which don't use damping, but Aristotelis Vasilakos (Kunos handling lead dev) reccomends the following settings for G29 (PC):
Gain close to 100%
Mimimum force around 12-14%
Dynamic damping around 50% and not lower than 30%
Road effects not higher than 20%

Anyone enjoying ACC with the G29? I have noticed that starting the game with the wheel plugged and not using the remote control at all it works ok, not great but you can definitely have some fun. I’ve another post about it too. the issues with the brake gets somewhat better like this. Even unplugging and plugging the wheel back while the game is on will give you a better brake feeling overall... of course for those having brake issues like I was.

No, it's been unplayable for me. Some tracks/car combos are tolerable, but overall the game is just unplayable and I wish I could get a refund.
For example, the Bentley at Silverstone for the hotlap challenge. After driving around Nurburgring with the Ferrari and managing to get some FFB settings which were at least driveable, I decided to give the hotlap challenge a look.
But in the Bentley with my settings that were at least working with the Ferrari, the wheel would "snap" after maybe 10-15 degrees of turning and throw the car into unrecoverable oversteer. Even at low speeds, for example trying to take turn 1 of the new GP circuit layout slowly in 2nd or 3rd gear the steering snaps, the back end goes and I'm off the track. To paint more of a picture of how bad it is, even trying to move from the right side of the track to the left side of the track down Hanger straight is enough to cause this snapping if I'm not careful enough. The steering input basically needs to be as gentle as when you're driving the shifter Kart in GT Sport. Ridiculous. But what's stupid is if I'm in the Ferrari the issue isn't nearly as bad. It still happens but the tolerances are way more, to the point where I'm actually able to drive around at a decent pace.
Maybe the Bentley is a beast of a car that only Hamilton like reflexes can tame? I'm not going to claim to be a sim racing expert, my experience is mostly from GT Sport, but there I'm A rated and on average have a 1.5-2.5% region gap. Also if I press the PS button while in the game to cause the FFB bug (where all FFB settings turn off and the steering gets super heavy) the issue completely disappears. I can drive the car around without it spinning off at nearly every corner.
I completely understand what you’re saying. I wasn’t able to complete a full decent lap in about an hour of trying. I’m no expert either but probably not that bad. I tried many different cars too, and was able to do a lot better with the M6. Traction control throws me off for some reason. I turned it completely off and ABS to 3 and finally was able to put in somewhat ok laps.
I feel the game is incomplete, it needs to be more polished. Menus, cameras, settings etc... for a real sim, it’s definitely missing a lot. Ill keep trying to get the hang of it until I either give on it, or there some type of patch soon.

In game press the PS button and go back in, worked for me after I start in the pit. Full FFB from there onwards. Its defo a bug and not working properly but this work around means you get the FFB. So happy as I was really confused at how light the steering was before hand. Get it done

I have to surprise you
the FFB is there as it should just be gentle with the wheel take some time don't rush it you'll get there since such an idiot and noob like myself can get better with each day then so can you

I'm surprised you are all having so much problems with the g29? Starting the game with even the default ffb settings was manageable. It definitely felt light to me but it was still possible to adapt to and get some clean laps in. I am still experimenting with the ffb settings, trying to find the right ones and it is improving with every practice session. I did experience the PS button heavy steering bug but pausing the game and going back into controls and just scrolling over the ffb settings before going back into the game seemed to fix it. I have left the brake gamma at 1.0 so far and it is heavier than GTsport but with only a bit more effort I am able get full brake pressure with the stock pedal and bump stop. So far I have driven the Lamborghini young drivers car and managed to get Gold in those 3 sessions and chose the 2018 Bentley which I found very grippy and easy to control. I have also given the BMW a spin around Mt Panorama for only a few laps. The hardest car to control out of those was the Lambo and I assume that was difference between MR and FR. I'm yet to try any other cars than those three but the steering, throttle and broke control is what I expected being a sim compared to gtsport physics. Definitely takes 2 laps or so to get tyres up to temperature and Psi before you can really get on the limit.
