Thrustmaster T300 WheelBase Rotation Mismatch

[Peter Stark]

Dear all,

what sort of settings should one use to get linear rotation and steering wheel rotation match in game to real?

I assume this game can soft lock and all that.

I have tried lot -from delete config, reset to defaults, even incorrect settings like sensitivity 100 etc. At best I was able to get center 180 degrees to match, but after that it just went insane. Based on how horrible is to control cars here I assume it is not just visual but actual input.

Any ideas?
TM settings = I have settings set to bet controlled in game (and def 900 rotation)
AMS2 -
- Sensitivity of all is 50, as it should be maybe?
- I tried calibration but it makes it worse, did delete settings, did reset to default...

It is a shame I did not have time for this before, since I would have refunded.
This makes the game unplayable for me, as I am playing in VR and it is a must for me to match.

I guess back to AC and iRacing and shame I cannot refund this as I bought this 30 days ago.
T300 for now, DD in future.

Put your TM panel back to default settings.

For Tm control panel, i have the following settings
DoR 900
75
100
100
100
100
Boost off
by the game

In order to properly calibrate your wheel in game, go to wheel calibration, turn the wheel all the way clockwise untill lock and click next.
then center your wheel and turn it anti clockwise 90 degrees untill it is reading the 900 dor that you have set in control panel, hold it there and click next.

Softlock will take care of the rest.

I have the same wheel. Let me know if you have any more problems.

Also what driver / firmware of the wheel are you using?

Latest, Latest. Not sure I will try your calibration tip.

Seems a bit amateurish from devs to have calibration like this - all inputs are digital, you have absolute positions of everything...
... and I kinda lost interest in this game because of its technical wonkiness.

Am happy ACC/AC/iRacing.
Will prolly skip this and look forward to AC2.

Ok, you don't need to use my tip. Just open the game, choose the calibrate wheel option and follow the directions.

my t300 just works. i dont think i ever had to set anything. its always been 1:1

Unlucky for me then.
Calibrate wheel is kind of hit or miss.
Was able to calibrate once and got BMW M1 fun at Imola. Next race, it was off again.
As my review stated, out of patience.
Hope devs do something about wheel handling... pCars2 - which I think uses the same engine was not straightforward to setup, but at least the config was mostly persistent. Mostly (also bad user experience).

Still do not understand what is so hard to ask me about degrees of rotation, make sure the same is setup in wheel config and just roll forward (allowing me to set gain, and optionally some effect strength etc).

On this, as my review states, this game lost me.

Doesn't even make if off the start line.
Such a waste.

Soft lock should take care of it all once the wheel is calibrated. I have the same exact wheel. Something is off on your end

I have the same wheel but use 880 degrees of rotation because when i calibrate thats what it says it should be, nothing else is changed in either in game settings or the control panel applet bit i use Default+ FFB.

The trick to getting a propper calibration is to set your control panel to the rotation you want. Lets say for example 900.

Then you go into the game to calibrate, Turn the wheel to the full lock position, don't worry about the numbers displayed, hold it there and click next.

Now this next step is where the number you set in the control panel comes into play, center the wheel and turn it in the oposit direction until you see those numbers you set in the control panel. If done correctly, it should say 900 when the wheel is turned 90 degrees in the calibration step. Once you see that, hold it there and click next.
