Mechanical Settings

TotalForce [-100~100]

Total power of the force feedback.
Negative values invert the FFB which is important for games like rFactor 2

WheelInertia [0~100]

The weight of the wheel.
Higher means heavier wheel and equals more stability.
But it may also diminish the road and vehicle information.
0 equals original weight of steering wheel

WheelDamper [0~100]

This setting dampens the wheel rotation.
This can be a usefull tool to stop oscilation.

SmoothLevel [0~10]

This Adjust how much of the FFB the game sends is cut off / trimed
Higher value means smoother feel but also might lose some details
0 equals to no filtering at all

1-9 = Sets Manual Filtering
10 = 100% Filter (ON)
0 = 0% Filter (OFF)

WheelSpring [0~100]

This setting is used to center the wheel.
The bigger the number, the harder the centering force.
Can easily be set to very low numbers, because usually the game takes care of this.
A real car centers the wheel only when driving and because of the force on the wheels.

WheelFriction [0~100]

This setting adds some friction to the turning action of the wheel.
The more friction the harder to turn the wheel.
Can usually be very low, since this is normaly taken care of from the game FFB

Vehicle Setting

WheelSpeed [0~100]

The maximal speed of the wheelbase in percent.
If the speed requested from the game is above the percentage value, it will be cut.
Otherwise, no change will happen

Suspension [0~9]

Lower values can provide cleaner / smoother output.
Higher values are closer to the original FFB provided by the game but may introduce unwanted noise.
