Fanatec CSL Elite Settings Coming Shortly

[slthree]

I messaged with Dom at Fanatec and they are, right now, working on a set of recommended wheel settings for the new Assetto Corsa Competizione for our PS4.

He said they will be out shortly.

Edit: He could not promise that they would be on the forums today.

Edit: these will be settings on the steering wheel itself, not in game settings.

In the meantime, if anyone has stumbled upon a Good wheel setting please post.

 

[Inittowinit82]

I wish I’d seen this! Just posted elsewhere looking for settings...looking forward to the response! Will you post up the settings here?

If he sends them to me through private message I will definitely post them. It's quite likely he may post them himself because he is a member here.

The Fanatec website has a forums section and it's possible he posts them there but I'm sure he'll let me know if he does. Dom is extremely helpful and very courteous and he's the reason I'll keep buying fanatec gear

 

[Inittowinit82]

Great. I’ve seen previous posts and I used his settings for GTS so I will share that trust in him!

Thanks so much,The rumble motor on my clubsport pedals will not stop spinning? Hopefully he notices that condition

Anyone figured out the problem with the ingame wheel not matching the elite wheel? Every time I change vehicle I have to reset SEN to match the car I’m in.

Thanks for the Cars turning angle info! Apreciate! A lot! :

As for the Wheel setup.. I have diferrent ones and like them a lot.. (as FFB and driving style is very personal... other may not like it... but even so... I´ll post them here tonight... as now I´m far away from any game console..

By default I had Braking Gamma on.. 5!!!! Strange...I didnt change it... and just felt a bit weak on braking... but even so used it just like that... I´ll try it at 1!

Are you sure??? Even if you set it to AUTO???

Are these the official ones that are recommended by Fanatec directly or by somebody who was on their forums?

Ditto to that. Dom is a life saver to many.

Noticed the first line of your comment stated "PC VERSION ONLYYYY!!!"
Do you think these should be ok for CSL Elite PS4 also?

 

[Inittowinit82]

It was from someone on the forum. I've tried it out on a few different cars and tracks, feels so much better than yesterday! It's a great starting point i think.

THESE ARE FOR ALL csl elite versions... including PS4 (that vrsion of the wheel works on Pc... also..)

 

[slthree]

Please, be careful not to mislead people, even if it's unintentional

Just because the wheel is designed to be used for both PC and PS4 does not mean that the settings will be the same for both.

That is why the person in charge of posting the settings has said they are working on console specific recommendations.

Otherwise, they would have just told us to use the PC settings.

That's not to say that they aren't a decent place to start and not to say that they may eventually end up being the same. But, the fact remains they have not given a setting for the PS4 or Xbox consoles yet.

I'm going to use the ones you posted myself to see how they work until we hear back from them, so thank you again

EDIT: with his permission I am copying Dom's words directly when I asked him again about this:

"That is correct. In some cases PC settings do work pretty well on PS4, but it's something we always want to test properly".

Keep in mind that even after Fanatec officially posts a recommendation for us, some of us may still be tweaking it a little further to suit their personal driving style.

 

[Mirror_man]

Well... some time after some less agreable incidents, and having GTPLANET Censorship doin their best...

Here are my prefered settings for ACC with my Fanatec CSL Elite PS4 , and CS V3 Pedals:


Wheel Settings:


Sens: I don´t think that AUTO works so.. I use it variable per car/brand - using the Individual Steering Rotation for Each Car on Game!!! as on: https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/thre...on-for-each-car-on-game.394628/#post-13150549

FF = 100

DRI = -1 (or 0)

FEI= 50

FOR= 100

SPR= OFF

DPR= OFF

BLI= 70

SHO= 100

BRF= 40



In Game Settings:


Gain= 50 (if you want raise it according to your taste..)

MF= 0

DD= 0

RE= 0

Steer Lock: As above for SENS (but if you can set it to .. 0 probably wil work too... still not sure about this)

S.L= 1


BG= 1


This wheel, the game, or both have already a lot of Damping feeling... so I simply took off everything regarding it.. .except DRI (but even that may possibly be set to zero... give it a try...)

 

[slthree]

First, thanks for sharing your settings. I'm having all kinds of trouble getting them right.

It's interesting that you say that "auto" doesn't work with sens because Ive only had it on Auto and it's not been good so maybe, just maybe you've saved me

Are you suggesting we change the sens to match the steer lock of each car from the chart?

With these settings are you experiencing a heavier, more robust wheel? No matter what I've tried my wheel feels so light, like a toy.

Probably that is why... but raising Gain may also help... (and I don´t know if it´s Placebo effect or not but I feel better this way - changing Sens accordingly to car...

I also took almost all Damping effects from the wheel and in game, and that may help too...

I also have PC version since the 1st day it came... and players used to say the Game induced a lot of damping on steeering feeling, and said the best was to remove all damping effects from it...

I don´t think Fanatec responsable has trully posted on their site more than the advised settings for the PC version, at an early stage of it... (it was updated regularilly either on Car Phisics and FFB, several times)... and of course that is a good starting point... but not more then that...

Ive tried several combinations and this is the one that I feel better with... simple as that... cant say mine is beter then yours, theirs on any other.. but its the best one for me... (FFB taste is very peculiar and unique for each of us... just like the tastes for so manny things..)


Aditional EDIT:

Found this video:

which looks interesting, to say the least...

will try out next week changing DD to 100 and dropping 1 or 2 on car setup steering lock! , and see out it goes!!!

Only next week I´ll be back to my PS4!!!

Very odd you would have Dynamic Damping off or set to "0".
This from a search on "Damping" to be better informed as to what purpose it serves. They refer to it as "Dampening". I'm assuming it means the same.

How Car Suspensions Work
BY WILLIAM HARRIS

Dampers: Shock Absorbers
Unless a dampening structure is present, a car spring will extend and release the energy it absorbs from a bump at an uncontrolled rate. The spring will continue to bounce at its natural frequency until all of the energy originally put into it is used up. A suspension built on springs alone would make for an extremely bouncy ride and, depending on the terrain, an uncontrollable car.

Lol... I´m sorry! There may be an error with the word(s) I used...

Clarifying...

It has to do with the effect transmitted/felt to the Fanatec wheel which is "handled" by the results of aplying the Damp" variable...

 

[slthree]

Guys, I have no idea what dynamic damping does but I do know that my steering wheel was extremely light until I found a video that told me to turn the dynamic damping all the way up 100 or more. Since I have tried every combination under the sun and my steering wheel has always felt so light that it’s almost undrivable I figured if 100 is good then 150 must be better

I said it to 150 and my wheel was robust and tight and it felt fantastic. After a few laps though I realize it was a little too strong so I’ve backed it down to 120 but I may end up around 130

my gain is still at 100 but given this new finding I might be able to lower it because it was not the gain that influenced whether my wheel was light or not.

Applies damper around the center to prevent oscillation.

Yup. The recommendation is to have Dynamic Damping set to 100 or higher....Default being 100.
Pawel Lopuch in the Fanatec forum has it set to 130. I currently haven't yet changed the default settings so I still have mine set at default 100 but I'm going to try 125-130 and see how it goes. These are his recommended settings BTW at least at the point of writing then.
Note: For ease of reference I've included the Defaults which are in brackets. Pawel's recommended settings are in bold to the right.
(For Steer Lock I've left mine at default 540° which so far is fine for me)

This is great. Thanks.

What do you guys make of the recommendation to change the steering lock for each car?

 

[Inittowinit82]

This is great. Thanks.

What do you guys make of the recommendation to change the steering lock for each car?

Can you see my posts!? I put the exact same thing up the day after release....

the recommendations work and changing the rotation to the car is needed, as mentioned already.

 

[davidt33]

This is great. Thanks.

One thing I find strange though is how he has Road Effects changed to "0" (Default being 50).
I would think that at "0" it would take away so much of the road effect. I've left mine at 50...unless some time I get a good explanation of taking that right off to "0".
From Pawel:
Road Effects: (Default 50%) 0
