fanaleds and wheel settings?

[Deleted]

I realized last night after a long absents from the game my account was set to auto renew while i was away
so apprently i have a membership till mid aug. The updates have made the cars quit more enjoyable to handle and a bit more forgiving
will i continue after aug.....probably not just due to the lack of car content but ill enjoy what time i have left!
Anyways is fanaleds supported by iracing and with the latest updates are there any new fanatec wheel settings I should be using?
When I was racing before i found one little secret that made the cars really easy to handle was to lower the dampening to a negative number....so i was wondering if things have changed ? my old settings seem to be working fine thus far

Fanaleds works great with iRacing. I installed it, checked the boxes for everything and it does its thing on its own.

I had used the T500 for almost a year for iRacing until I got my Clubsport wheel in April. What I noticed after switching back to a Fanatec wheel is that the wheel settings for iRacing vary greatly from car to car. You want at least some minimum force, at least 0.4, for each car so that you feel something around the center even on the straights. For some cars, I have minimum force set to 2.0. I also noticed that the Fanatec wheels generally require more in-game FFB than the T500. Make sure you have the driver set to 900 sensitivity and 100 damper. On wheel, I use 100 FFB, OFF senstivity, 100 SHO, 80 ABS and everything else off or 0. I have not tried Damper at a negative number, but perhaps I should???

The Clubsport wheel doesn't have negative Damper or Spring settings, the settings start at OFF and go up from there. I use a damper setting of 20 and spring of 10 on my wheel for iRacing.

The older wheels and firmware has positive and negative damper and spring settings. If you go all the way negative they also have an OFF setting. So to get equivalent settings to mine, set your damper 2 clicks above the OFF setting and your spring 1 click above the OFF setting and adjust from there.

I leave my wheel settings the same for every car in iRacing. The on wheel FFB and Sho is always at 100. I have custom controls set up for each car in game. For the road cars, I don't adjust the in game FFB very much from track to track, maybe by one or two. I have it mapped to the 4 way stick so I can adjust to feel while driving.

On the IndyCar, I adjust the FFB for every track, I sometimes even adjust it different for qualifying and racing on the same track. For qualifying, I usually set the FFB slightly lower so I can get as smooth a line as possible through the corners without having to fight the wheel, especially on bumpy tracks. Iowa is a perfect example of this. I like the FFB a little higher during the race so I can better feel the grip and when it's about to break loose. Don't want to lose it in a corner and ruin the race for somebody else.
