Fanatec Gran Turismo DD Extreme Wheel

[BWX]

Seems logical to me. I suspect they are super confident on stability. I wonder what combo they used for last weekends Cup Race in Tokyo, given it was the first time the competitors used the DD+?

Yeah I wonder!

 

[ANDRITSOULAS]

Yeah I wonder!

The same as you. . . . 😁
2.2.3.7
1.1.0.3

Yeah that makes sense actually, since it is the latest most stable FW. I was wondering if they maybe had a newer version but maybe they just went with the known good one.

In the new update

2. Controllers
　- Adjusted the Tuning Menu Auto Setup parameters for the Fanatec® Podium to better suit the Torque Mode:
　　・When in High Torque Mode, selecting Auto Setup (AS) will set the optimum parameters;
　　・When in Low Torque Mode, the force feedback will be weaker. Please adjust the setting in Custom Setup as follows:
　　　SEM: Auto
　　　FFB: 100
　　　NDP: 50
　　　NFR: 5
　　　NIN: Off
　　　INT: 3
　　　FEI: 100
　　　FOR: 100
　　　SPR: 100
　　　DPR: 100

Spent their time on the podium huh…weird.

Wondering if the oscillations persist for faster cars at higher speeds.

Have PD ever put Fanatec wheel settings in the patch notes like that? I guess even if they aren't saying anything about newer wheels, at least they're working on wheels and settings. At least it's on their radar. It was kind of funny watching the world series and those guys' hands oscillating back and forth down the straights. edit- also interesting they have SPR DPR at 100 when everyone says they aren't used in GT7. I think I can feel a difference when they are on but everyone says they aren't used.

SPR and DPR are used.

I haven't seen them do it before either... I've been complaining that they need to be more communicative, hopefully this the start of them doing that...


Nobody seems to know what the heck this game is doing. The physics are changing update to update... The FFB is changing... PD doesn't seem to understand it themselves.

Iterative improvements are amazing and appreciated. But whatever this is... This is annoying. PD is reminding me of Mercedes in the current F1 regs, their wind tunnel correlation is miles off lol.

According to the official FANATEC forum, SPR and DPR are not used in the game. https://forum.fanatec.com/discussion/25219/gran-turismo-7-ps4-ps5-fanatec-recommended-settings/p7

Maybe this was changed in one of the updates since this was posted???

Has anyone tested FFB with open wheelers after GT7 1.52 update? Has it been fixed or is it still weak?

SPR and DPR don't have a direct effect on what these two parameters actually are meant to be used for.
Yet, they have a very subtle impact on the center spring behavior or let's say the initial feel around the wheel shaft.
To put it in another perspective, it doesn't do exactly what it's supposed to do, but it still has some very minor impact which to me is noticeable when turning them completely off or having them set to their default values.

SPR and DPR are used in the game menu for sure and very easy to test.

Easy enough to test, I suppose, if it's mostly a center feeling that you're noticing. I've had mine set to off since the DD Pro, and now with the DD+. I'll try it later tonight after work. Should be a fun test.

Yep it's indeed easy to test.
When I turn them both off completely the wheel becomes slightly more nervous around it's center position.
The initial firmness is gone.
It's very subtle but to me still noticeable.
I crave these small little things 😅
