    All i can say is WOW. I've set it up and it is absolutely insane. best £1000 i have ever spent and that is not an exaggeration. The feeling from the wheel are unreal.
    Ive got to play with the setting as there is so much torque i could turn it down a fair bit but will look into this.
    I see why people where gloves now. I slighty let go when i lost it and nearly burnt my hands. NOTE TO SELF. DONT LET GO.
    Its amazing how easy it is to turn going slow like power steering but the faster you go the harder it gets and really wants to fight.

    I would 100% advise anyone thinking about getting one, just do it. you really don't know what you are missing.

    I cant wait to get the paddles now as assetto is crap without them. it only lets you use the H-shifter on certain cars if they have it.

    only 1 more sleep lol. you will love it mate. you really have to turn the FFB down in assetto.
    It's amazing how you feel it just slip with over steer.
    Ive got a lot to learn with settings and forces etc but setting it up is straight forward with the MMoS software.

    Its not ideal with an h Shifter. you really dont want just one hand on the wheel

    @Nick Moxley @bruce stephen Would you happen to have any links to your settings in the mmos software. I have been searching and people have them different. I've have the gains on this set about 50% and then and all the filters off. I can then play about with the FFB in the game.

    My setting's are as follows. In Game Menu, so NOT on track. I run AC at 50%....i run a small amount of filter in game, but have slowly been taking that back. Everything else on Zero.

    I do run Soft lock and do use the FFB skip steps to 0 were obviously not on shitty G27's that cant handle the resolution.

    When i say I run 60% on street cars, that is ON track using the Number pad, the game saves the FFB per car for you. So set it once and forget.

    And here's my Granity and MMO's.

    THE ONLY thing i changed was to add a TINY amount like 6% of "spring effect" for the desktop effect. What this will do is when you fire up your wheel for the first time, It will do its little calibration jiggle, but then you have to give it a Good Chunk of rotation to get it to see the "desktop effect" which with damper was fine. But i was always kinda wondering where the Center of the rotation was when my Niece or someone would turn the wheel when powered off. Well with the Spring on 5% when your fire up, just give the wheel a nice spin and the MMO's will kick itself into Desktop mode and the spring effect will very Gently center the wheel for you. This is IMO perfect behavior as to always having the wheel centered for swapping wheels and such when not in game.

    @Nick Moxley unfortunately the granity settings for the small and large are not interchangeable. I tried your settings for ac and they were great tho.

    Thanks @Nick Moxley

    This is something new to me. i didn't know you could change things on track using the number pad and it saves per car. How do i get this up?

    i'm just going to have a good play this weekend as i leave work in 15 minutes and the Mrs is out tonight and tomorrow.

    Ah very true...Glad to hear you like the AC setting's Tho...they are a very slightly tweaked version of What a Buddy Alex in Montreal hooked me up with. Which cars did you try with them ?


    Awesome, Someone's got a fun couple days ahead. Just when on track push the +/- on the num pad, thats it.
