This must have taken ages!!

Respect +1,000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Here is 121 AU1_layouts...
A couple of these are a few yrs old.

knock yourself out :-)

Sounds just like the G25 issue...

Lose screws on encoder bracket or just a faulty Encoder on the left motor end

Still around after 8 or so yrs :-)

Last bit made me lmfao.... Random as fk!!

Any one ever think about or care to mention the "NO feel/ONLY IMAGES" ripple strips???

Real 3D Ripple strips with real-time physical feedback on the steering forces..
Just like some other sim's on the market

These fake graphical images are nice to look at,but only seem to be just that...

FAKE

And before anyone tells me about the high angle ripples around Aston circuit,plus others(e.g. Blackwood)
YES, they have high angles and can be launch pads at times...

But they still don't feel like or are shaped like real ripples!

Just thought I would give a friendly :bump:
for all Australian racer's new to Live for Speed & don't already know of any "Australian based" racing group's...

That's quiet impressive TBO...

Would be the only way id ever go near the SRW wheel ^^

That's almost the same as what I made for myself


Great job mate,well done...

Ive had this app on my ZTE Racer for a few months now

Connects via wi-fi if anyone was wondering...

It works a treat,shows a lot of useful data..

P.S.I just noticed this app is a little bit different to mine??
This is the one I have... (Not my video)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v ... 7HFKQ&feature=relatedSoz ,my bad lol

Quote from Jonathon.provost :

Ye but i was only telling them so if they want to change it they can

Its all good mate,you don't have to defend yourself against me..
I merely wanted to check it out for myself & turns out its been like that for a long time & would be nice to have it sorted...but yer


Bring on S3..

Ive checked it out also,and its been that way since S2 ALPHA 0.5Y...
I'm pretty sure its present in all version's.
TBO i think its a low priority bug considering what's going on with the new tyre physics model & not to mention the long awaited VW Scirocco :hide:

Good spotting tho

Quote from libben :

Me personally think they should create a "platform" like iracing.

Atleast when we talk about servers and series and managing the whole experience for people online.


I like lfs, but i gladly pay for something like iracing and get a real database for the whole simcommunity in that sim. I like the whole web gui for the whole sim experience. lfsworld is nice too but it's not the same thing.

Pretty expensive to get iracing going but when you have got your cars and tracks and series you wanna run it's just a matter of small fee each month depending on how you choose to pay for it.

I would gladly pay for LFS in the same way if they did something similiar. Allthough the prices cant be that ridiculous though. Cause it aint laser scanned and real cars blah blah blah.

I hope they have real jobs besides this so they can pay their bills.


*
iRacing has around 30 000 members signed. Everyone pays atleast 7 usd a month. And on top of that you pay for some cars and tracks you want to run. Me myself has put up around 200 usd for just cars and tracks and around 10 dollars every month for rent. And im only D class and just want to have some fun in there. A wild guess would be 30 000 x 120 = 3 600 000 USD for just average user. Then 30 000 x month fee that is at smallest 7,45 usd or 10-12 usd.

I would gladly give some of my money to LFS. To bad they don't feel the same and try to make the most out of it.

I miss the "CTRA" servers/website concept.
Now that had some follower's..

Had some dam good race's there(apart from the occasional crasher)......... it was a great value & had a reasonable database for the whole simcommunity in "this sim" to rank up(so to speak) as "simracers".

Id even go as far to say i would pay money to see CTRA come back again! who knows...

If it help's....

I had that trouble a while back....
See my post above(#10) for picture's of the encoder bracket & where to locate the encoder screws inside the G25 unit !!

This video is private.
Sorry about that.

:doh:
Fail.. +1

Quote from zeromussov :

Yeah, same here... very annoying tbh.

Ive just been testing some different setting in the logitech profiler ..

I'm now using 100% dampener / 101% strength & 0% spring !!

That knocking sound is still present,but the dead-zone in the ffb central area when drifting/driving seems to have gone

Quote from JO53PHS :

This happens when turning right quickly on all G27s, from what I've heard.. it's a manufacturing defect/fault/bit of bad design on all G27s

:wtf2: Well that's just on at all.....

I'll wait till logitech can ""confirm"" that statement first...

But if that is the case when I get my replacement,Then I won't be supporting logitech or their products ever again...

I'd go buy a FREX setup instead

Quote from Calzone :

That the wheel stops before hitting 900 degrees is normal. I think they did that so you can't break through the 900 degrees. If they didn't do it it would make a lot of noise when you smash it into that 900 degrees :P

I don't think you get what I'm saying......

THIS WHEEL IS FAULTY:: from manufacturing--- Calzone read my previous statement again thank you

Quote :

On rotating the wheel to its full 900 OR 720 OR 540 or ANY other degree setting,I Can't get it to fully hit each set degree....

And ALSO this brand new wheel has stuffed wheel shaft bearings....lots & lots of sideways movement and a loud knock if i rock the wheel from side to side,AND it feels like it loses ffb when changing direction really bad.....

I was a very reasonable drifter/racer with my G25......Now with this dodgy wheel I cant even catch a drift/oversteer the same,I just feel no ffb when going through a transition from left to right or vise versa till its to late & i spin...

They are going to replace it anyway.....

OK,Ive contacted Logitech & their reply stated:

Quote :

We hope it will not deter you from supporting Logitech products in the future, as not all situations will result in this way.

Now I'm waiting for another reply email back as to how long i have to wait to get replaced with another G27 that actually work's properly this time...

Gotta love logitech

Sounds mechanical to me with the degree thing...
& yes i can force the wheel to the full turn..BUT
the bump stoppers are causing this IMO

Might send Logitech another email to be sure....

IMO this is a Manufacturing problem...

OK HERE'S MY G27 PROBLEM...........................

Calibration works funny on start up every time..Computer start's,then wheel begins it's calibration routine...then stops half way through....Computer finishes starting up to desktop,Then wheel starts its thing all over again??

It's centering fine then & caL worked properly...BUT BUT BUT!!!!


Can anyone tell me if this is happening to their g27's please...

On rotating the wheel to its full 900 or 720 or 540 or any other degree setting,I Can't get it to fully hit each set degree....

It stops about 10/15 degree before the set angle....both ways left & right have same effect of a 10/15 degree loss...??????

It feels like the bump stop is set to the wrong spot!! Look @ attached picture's for better understanding of my problem.

My G25 never had this trouble...
I don't use g25 because my wheel snapped the top half lose & is now floppy & stuffed...One reason why i got it RMA'd in the fist place

I had wrist aches from having my shifter mounted next to my wheel on the desk.

Plus sitting @ a desk while driving didn't feel very natural for me,So I found some wood for next to nothing & the drivers seat out of my spare car(it's not on the road,so don't freak...its a wreck!)Then knocked myself up a Sim rig.

But most of all the shifter is now mounted on the left side,About 15cm down & sits about the same height as my knee's.
No more wrist aches...

(Almost feels about the same posture as when i drive in real life.)
Laid Back & CruZin!!
