why 1000 degree steering look???

[taomatrix72]

so the steering doesent work on the 296 with my csw 2.5. does it mean that i have to buy a DD Wheel. a steering look of 1000 make no sense in a racecar or is it a strategy to seel more DD wheels.
i´m still happy with my csw 2.5 and i will not buying a new base. even if kunos stay with 1000 steering look.

Don't be sooooooooooooooo silly done to get DD sales up hahahahahahaha. have you tried changing the steering lock? it works perfect on my TS-PC base out of the box. set the steering rotation to 900 in game and 900 in your base settings.

[taomatrix72]

it´s all on 900. but whenn i turn 180 degress on my wheel it´s ingame 210 or so. not really gamebreaking. so i must keep in mind that i have to turn a bit less in the 296.
maybe most people didn´t see this really because the differnce is not that high

It is somewhat game breaking for that matter, it messes with the input.

possible workaround:
in the controller settings page, click on the little arrow on the left side of the steering. scale will appear. adjust it to your liking and save the profile to use it with 296 or any other car with steering lock over 900.
worked for me in the past with the logitech momo wheel (270 DoR).
in your case i think that 111% (or 89%) scale will do the job (but do the math and try to match it as you like).
in wheel driver/software the max (900 degrees) should be selected, in game you can try both 900 and 0 (though i believe it will not make any difference, all you need is to find the correct scale)
if you are happy with your wheel its an overkill to change it to DD for just one car IMO.
good luck mate

It's actually 1200 max. But you are free to use any steering lock as you wish as long as settings in game and wheel driver match.

Every car has its own steering lock, the Ferrari 296 has 1000

i wonder why a steering lock of 1000 would be better for DD wheels than non DD wheels lol although some wheels only do 900 degrees so it does seem like a bad move but yea i keep mine at 900 in game and 900 in my fanatec software.

do not have the new DLC so i can not comment on the new cars.

also the csl DD 8 nm is really not that great so i would keep your wheel base unless your really stepping up to a high end DD wheel the entry level fanatec csl dd/gt dd just idk cost a lot of money and leave quite a bit to be desired i feel like its maybe 10% better than my thrustmaster t300 and costed almost 3x the price.
so im betting the csw 2.5 feels really similar to a csl dd/gt dd also to me the csl dd is not hardly any stronger feeling then the t300 even with the 8nm power supply that was the biggest disappointment maybe ever so slightly more detail i guess... not worth the price though.

I have just looked at mine (don't normally have the wheel in game showing) and it's set to 900 in TM control panel and in game and the wheel turns perfectly in sync in the 296. Not drove the others yet.

Did you just compared T300 with CSL DD 8nm and DD is just 10% better? Wow, I'm amazed. I wonder how much time did you spend with DD. T300 is older gen and no dd user wants to go back to belt or even worse gear driven wheelbases. I had T500 for many years and today I can't even imagine going back. I can even say more, unfortunately ACC ffb is so detailed, that no dd users can't take all from this sim (and other modern sims). There is no force so no room to proper feel the limit of the grip. No details either but it doesn't make you much faster

[grizta30]

I went from a t300 to the csl DD, i can assure you its a massive difference.

[cool4real]

I went from a TS-PC to a T818 and it's still a big difference

[McRoe [GER]]

No problems with my CSW 2.5 at 900 degrees lock

[Hellraiser]

CoachDaveAcademy / correct steering locks and ratio. There is a list of all vehicles. Colek is right.

[goblueteam]

idk for me its not a huge difference i had the t300 for 3 months probably used 2-3 hours a day 5 days a week.
i have had the csl dd for around 1 year now honestly i am most likely selling the csl dd whenever i stop being lazy lol and will probably just go back to using my old thrustmaster tmx yes its a big downgrade but yea idk i dont race/play as much now so it just feels like a waste of money i actually have never been happy with the wheel lol.

i also was disappointed in the t300 coming the the thrustmaster tmx but even more disappointed going from the t300 to the csl dd lol i think for some reason i just like thrustmasters FFB a little more or something i could not really tell you,

i actually kind of feel like DD wheels need at least 10-12 nm to be worth paying for when you pay 700$ for the wheel and base 8nm just does not seem worth it although this update made ACC feel more powerful than previous.

i just feel like how hyped up it was it was kind of hard not to be disappointed and it just did not feel like i made any real improvement in car control or lap times.

but yea if people like the wheel and feel like it was worth the price then thats awesome for them lol everyone has different opinions though i just think 700$ is to much money to spend and still end up in the lower end of FFB wheels. that 700 does not include pedals.

I can relate to feeling somewhat underwhelmed going from a tspc to a moza r9; as I had to change up pedals the cost to switch up was about 1200 cdn. The feedback possibly relays faster and you can differentiate various forces better but it has not made me a faster driver.
I would even go so far to say it feels less 'real' as everything the car is doing has to be rammed down the 'information hiway' of the steering column. The natural damper of a high quality belt drive wheel seems more pleasing to me
Now if I had spent that money on a set of pedals I would be further ahead for sure...
