FIXED: Using T300RS, cars feel weightless, very poor FFB

[Jay Smizzle]

EDIT:
After going through wheel calibration in Pcars 2 and adjusting my FFB settings as Kondor999 suggested, I'm very happy with the FFB now:

In TM control panel:
All 100%.
900deg (of course).

In Game:
Flavor: Informative
Gain: 70
Volume: 70
Tone: 70
FX: 50

OLD:
My initial impression is that the cars feel like they have no weight and I'm guessing that maybe the default FFB settings for my Thrustmaster T300RS are terrible. Anyone have any recommendations on improving the FFB for the T300RS?

Not really, and let me explain why that's not really the answer:

The steering wheel profiles that have been set for each manufacturer/model (ie: Thrustmaster T300) are meant to deal with that. During the development process SMS took each one of these wheels and created profiles to get the best FFB possible from them. We WMD members tested them and helped them to improve them giving them our feedback.

But as is explained in the video those different FFB flavours just focus on different effects, so the driver can suit what's transferred through the steering wheel to his personal taste . Some prefer to get the "feel of pants" or slip angle, while others prefer to feel the suspension movement, etc. And then, of course, you can just get the raw FFB information, the rack forces.

Kindest regards

What settings would be good for logitech G27? im sure its to weak to give any valuble information for raw as its easier to clip with more info. just guessing.

Sorry, I don't have a G25. But I'd start with the informative flavour, as that wheel is probably not strong enough to use the raw flavour.

I suggest you to go to the official project cars forum. I'm sure WMD members using G27 will provide recommended values for your steering wheel ;)

WMD members?

[Rantam]

Yep. WMD = World of mass development. It is kind of the early access phase for Project Cars 2. We WMD users had had access to the game while it was under development since the summer of 2015, giving them feedback, creating liveries and media, etc.
