isnt it the result of a flawed way to poll the wheel ?



just read that thread and lets just say i certainly prefer the ease of use lfs offers



still sub par with now 3 games doing it how it needs to be done

Maybe a flaw in the way the game polls the wheel maybe not.. since it can be fixed with a simple GFX card driver control panel fix, seems like maybe it is a bug in the way the GFX are drawn or how the back buffer of the GFX car is used..

One problem is that it only polls the wheel once a frame, which I think is a problem.



LFS is easier to get the wheel in sync with FF wheel.. but same is possible in both games.. and it is not hard at all in rF, actually once you set it- you can set it for each car.. so that is kind of cool actually.



Yeah rF should do it in a similar way to the way LFS and RBR does FF.. directly from the physics engine.. hopefully it will eventually or maybe we have to wait for a different game.

thats the flaw
to me it doenst make much sense not to poll every physics interval

well at least to me it seems like lfs was coded with the dfp in mind while rf wasnt

Yeah I think it would be better to poll controller at a constant rate- I have said the same thing since the day I found out that it did not.. but there is a work-a-round for it, so there is no lag when tweak is applied..

LFS was created ages before the DFP was a twinkle in the eye of any engineer..

rF was created with custom "DFP" controller.ini files built into the game.




So do you actually own rFactor? ..because some of these things are well known to anyone who owns the game.

well yes but ever since s2 lfs has great support for the dfp

actually no ... tried it once and got fed up with the physics quite soon once i found that the whole weird isi feel is still there
