[Mr Irrelevant]

I never set up FF before and i cant find a good video or reddit post. whats a good setting for FF for T248 cause I dont get any FF in corners and hardly any on straights

There is a wheelcheck utility that helps you calibrate FFB.

Link is in this video, and video explains how to use it.

I can't change the FFB settings.
My "options" page is slightly different than in the video.

at the end of "Wheel Force" there is an "Auto" box with a black tick in it that is un-clickable i.e. the tick cannot be taken away. When I hover over the ticked box it says "controls how strong the force feedback feel with be when using the auto button in the F9 black box."

I have the
-Wheel intensity at 40 NM but the wheel feels the same as 1.0 NM
-Strength at 8.5 is down from 12.0
-Intensity at 100%

But the FFB feels almost not there. I think the "Auto" button is not allowing changes.

I press F9 but nothing happens. My keyboard has a stop button with the F9 but if I lock the functions or unlock the functions still no F9 black box.

I know I have the 'F9' button working, because when I sit in the car I press 'F9' and the mirror settings come up.

I guess I will go to the iRacing forums and search there, but if someone could help that would be great.

I am not familiar with Trustmaster wheels, so it's very hard to see what's happening here.

You use the F9 display while you are in the car. It's a blackbox. (but you found that out).

Make sure your wheel force is set properly if you set it too high for a low-force wheel, it will give even less FFB power.

Then you start driving (mostly about half to a full lap, without crashing, hitting anything) and you can use the auto-calibrate while driving on the F9 black box.

Minimum force is important for a low-force wheel, that sets the point at which the wheel will start giving force feedback. (My previous wheel a logitech had min-force to 14% before it properly reacted)

Just tried
-strength at 59.9
-wheel force at 1 NM
-intensity at 100%

Yep, that is the business...

Hello 'simulator' good bye 'arcade'.

1 NM at the wheel seems counter intuitive, but that is so much better than F1 24.

I got my settings to
-wheel force 5.6
-strength to 59.9
-intensity 100%

EVEN BETTER.
thank you
