Hi Shimon,

Welcome to the G27 world, its awesome, trust me

I used this guide, as it came from Scawen so I believe. http://en.lfsmanual.net/wiki/W ... tting_up_a_Logitech_Wheel

FFB, well that depends on you really. I was racing somebody the other night, and they had FFB on 30% but I have mine on 85%

I also have 720 degree's rotation, not the 900.

hi i did the settings like in picture and using 720 degree's with 85% ffb
the thing is when ever i go over a curb the wheel just lose it for some reason and it has a twichy feel and iven an awd car will just lose controll .
the wheel it self feels just like a car without power steering lol

could you share some pictures of your settings ? maybe iam doing somthing wrong

I can't imagine you need that much FFB in-game, even on a G27. I think something around 30-40% in-game is fine. I remember I used 101% and then twice zero in the profiler screen (pretty much like the link posted).

but can you feel the "rumble"strips or anything else at 30%

Fordie

Perhaps not with a G27, but I can't imagine driving around with a super heavy wheel isn't good either for you and the wheel.

yes 30% does feel better , also do you know why the LED dont work ?

also i made the mistake by practicing in cargame s2 server and droping my safety rating from 96% to 82% lol

I drove my dfgt at 200, felt great, but my wheel didnt like it.

Little off-topic, but if you follow the readme and use Fanaleds it should work fine.

My lights don't work either, so I guess LFS doesn't support them,

LFS indeed does not support them. You can get them working with my Fanaleds tool though.

Hi Bose,

Yeah I tried that, and it still doesn't work. I don't start LFS the usual way, as I use CRSEmixer for better engine sounds, so this requires a .bat to start LFS.

So how to I add that

Fordie

Here is the contents of the .bat file I have:
@echo off
cd CSR
start/AboveNormal CSR.exe
cd ..
pause
start LFS.exe /insim=29999
exit

Fordie

Just tried this on a standard install that I have as "backup" as it doesn't work either Bose

Can you PM or email me to discuss this? Little easier to help and not to clutter here.
