Universal FFB Settings for PS4/XB1 WebAppXBOne

[Jose Mendonca]

Hi everyone.
Yesterday I put together a small webapp, optimised for mobile phones (but does work on desktop / tablet), with the settings from Wooball's XLS files.
I've asked for this permission to use his data, as well as Jack Spade's permission, hence publishing this here now.

Basically, on a simple view you can choose a car and see the 5 different types of parameters for him. As new file versions come out, you will also be able to choose which version you're looking at.

If you register (just username and pin, no emails as I don't want that responsibility), you can also mark a setup as being already in game.
This was the main reason I did this for myself, to track which ones I've inputed already, as well to make it easier to see all the settings.

Anyway, hope is useful for some of you, any comments, issues or suggestions just shout them in my direction.

All rights of the actual settings go to @Wootball.

There is an app you can download to your phone that is really good, haven't got the link right now but I'll have a look for it

 

[smilerftm]

It's Android mind so if you have Apple or Windows yours will have to do

This webapp is way better than my Android app and compatible with everything. Well done, @Jose Mendonca !

Yes, it's exactly what I was thinking I could do with. Great that we can choose a car and quickly select the setup type along with the option to record which Jack Spade setting you are using by car or even save custom car setups by version. Excellent and many thanks. @Jose Mendonca

 

[Jose Mendonca]

Thanks. The thought of creating an app did cross my mind, but this is much easier to support, and can be added to the homescreen (complete with a custom icon as well )

Why make a specific app when this works on anything (well I assume it works on iPods etc)

 

[Jose Mendonca]

Yes, if it has a browser it works. Was also tested on Windows phone without a hitch.
Only thing i didn't test was a blackberry as I have no access to one.

Will you update it with the new Audi DLC cars?

Great app, by the way. Thanks.

 

[Jose Mendonca]

Yeah, it has been updated already. Let me update the first post

 

[Jose Mendonca]

Hi all.
New update today, with a couple of ideas sent to me by a fellow user:
- New profile page that allows to pre-select the favourite configuration type for cars that don't have one yet.
- Car filter by category on the car list

Enjoy

Great work @Jose Mendonca 👍 I was using the app by @WarriusZero before this, it seems much the same if not identical, but bringing the info to a broader user group is a good thing. Nice one

I do have a question though, about the 5 profiles. I'm not sure what they all mean, or where to find out. Could someone point me in the right direction please. Thank you

Edit: Shoot... I just clicked Wootballs link! All the info I was after. Haha, Doh!

Edit 2: Ok so I read the descriptions, I'm still a bit confused but I guess whichever one is 'best' is probably subjective. Which profile do you guys use? Until now I always went for classic.

Now all you need to do is convince MS, Sony and SMS to allow this to be used to load ffb settings into the game directly

I tried all version on a couple of cars and ended up preferring the SOP/Lateral one so ended up using that for everything. However I've started using the 66% for quite a few cars now.

The web app is great for keeping tabs on it and makes it much easier for reading the data on a mobile device when entering the settings in game.

 

[Jose Mendonca]

Personally I go for the 66% one. I've tried a few of the other ones, but it seemed like most preferred the 66%, at least with a TX wheel.

Last month had about 5.000 visits, half of it unique. Not bad

 

[Captain Roh]

I'm using this app a lot now I'm playing more often. Great work @Jose Mendonca.

I've only tried the classic and fy+sop profiles so far and my preference has been the classic group. It says fy+ is supposed to offer more rear end feel but compared to classic I felt the opposite.

I use a T300 and the Tweaker Files have been a god send. I plan to do more experimentation and your app has made that very easy indeed. Thank you

 

[Titzon Toast]

I see Jack Spade has released Tweeker files 2.0 to go with this new patch, I wonder how much has changed?

 

[Jose Mendonca]

It seems he reworked all the values and added a new configuration type. I will be updating the app at the latest this weekend, but may arrive sooner

 

[Captain Roh]

Keep up the good work Jose, and thank you once again 👍

 

[svenvangent]

Yes thank you for this

 

[Jose Mendonca]

Jack Spade 2.0 data is in the app now Enjoy!

 

[Spitfire77]

Just FYI - if you use a T300 on ps4 and go to these new 2.0 settings, you might get a grinding feeling in some cars (I first ran into it with the BMW M1 Pro Car) - I reverted back to the 1.7 settings for that car then adjusted to my liking. - I am planning to test it our more tomorrow morning and see what I can figure out.

 

[Jose Mendonca]

New update today:
20th August 2015 - 1.9

- Option to change car from within the car setup page

 

[WarriusZero]

Wow, I'm impressed. This thing is getting better and better every day!

 

[svenvangent]

Woooooooo nice cool super great amazing marvellous ...... I didn't know that you could go back to the previous settings 1.7 .
That's good , prefer 1.7 feeling for my wheel than the new 2.0 .
Thanks Jose .

 

[Spitfire77]

I was using your site this morning and noticed the new formatting and message. Looks great!

 

[Jose Mendonca]

I though I had put this here already, but must have forgotten.

Here's a global month usage of the site since it was released:

Month / Unique visitors / Number of visits
Jun 2015 / 361 / 511
Jul 2015 / 1,784 / 4,857
Aug 2015 / 2,267 / 5,449

Thank you all

 

[Jose Mendonca]

The big 2.0 is out! Not that big for you guys, but big for me.
From now one, I will be able to import the settings directly from the XML files, which should speed up things on my side. Already tested with 2.1 and is much much better. However, per Jack's indication, I will skip these files, as the next set of files will feature the DLC cars (and might as well update then).

Also, wheel configuration can now be browsed, and if you're logged in, favourite. Favourited set ups will show up on a special list above everything else. I think this route is better than having likes. (And I am in Britain, so is favourite, not favorite )

Oh yeah, setups are hidden by default. If you want your setup to be visible, there's a check box at the end to make it so. This is so work in progress setups are not visible.

This is not the end however, and more things will come when necessary

Thank you Jose. The wheel settings are handy, especially being able to see others. I will share my setup once I can confirm the numbers.

Can we have global based on steering used? I have a G29 and I'm willing to test all of these changes since Pcars feels unreal to me in default settings you steer way more in reality so the car in game would respond!
