    Hello, now I have the Sway 37%, Surge 57% and Heave 6%, this is 100% but I notice little movement by the configuration of my motion seat 2 dof, can I give more%? Or do the axes overlap?

    You can safely set the settings to:
    Sway 40
    Surge 60
    Heave 10
    And it will be fine.
    They don't max out all together that often.

    From their you should adjust you max min settings for the game.
    https://www.xsimulator.net/tuning-centre/
    also, I would lower the Heave max/min values is it rather bumpy as your only using 10 of it.

    Give it a try and let us know how it goes!

    thanks I'll try it, heave it down to less than 1? 0.9 for example? and 10% is not too much?

    Do a auto capture and when your done, try cutting the heave number in half.
    Take care,

    Which car do you use to calibrate the tuning center? I use the f2004 and the rest of them I make profiles with more% but the cars of series to the 50% but they feel little movement

    I use a ferrari or a Porsche street or gt3 car for capture. I find they are in the middle. If I tune on a faster car the street cars have almost no feeling. If I tune on something mild when I drive an f1 car it'll throw me out of my seat

    but if you use a medium car like a gt2 to calibrate, when it runs with a f1 it will reach the top of the movement long before the telemetry, if you brake at full stop it will reach the maximum but at half braking it will also come to a stop

    You should differenziate your profiles
    I use to have a profile for open wheels and one for all the rest.
    You'd better make your base profile with a medium car (as @PiaMan said a GT3 shoud be fine) and then lower values for open wheels (I lower heave mainly and then set Main Level % to about 90-95%) otherwise it'd be a pain driving the Schleife...

    Yes a middle car works well, and maybe a windy track with a hill if you have an option.
    I run about 80% as hard as I normally would, making sure not to hit anything.

    Then you can use Game Manger profiles to alter the base settings for a faster or slower car/plane from there on.
    You can even tune in new Game Manger profiles live while playing with the remote profiler.

    Take care all,

    I have tried up to 70% Surge, 50% Sway and 10% Heaven and I have not reached the top of the axes at any time, maybe in some very specific circumstance they could arrive but I have tried the F1 2004 in mugello and they have never arrived, this would be fine so? They add 130% ...
