I will ask my teammates for a specific DFP config file. Hopefully one of them is actually using a DFP.

My basic set is to reduce centreing to 10%.
Increase steering to 50%.
And select a Single axis for pedals.
I also only have a very small degree set for steering say 14-15 max.
Make sure to dump some fuel before leaving pits and drop the tyre pressures and choose soft compound.
I know you are well experienced Beano so most of this is more for others. ;)

It's worth noting that if i run the game maxxed out my FFB feels lifeless and numb. Running on mediums gives me the feel i want from my set up. This is why i believe overall system performance effects FFB. It seems to draw something away from the wheel when your system struggles.
I have my track textures maxxed out as i find that helps with my line and braking markers but the rest i have on Mediums.
 
Beano.
I have that notepad config file but it's to long to post. Add me to MSN and i will pass it over.
 
After playing the demo/trial it seems decent enough. Not bothered with wheel ffb issues as I don't use a wheel now, sold mine. Use a trusty old Cyborg evo force and it seems fine.

Mind you, I haven't bought any racing games for a while now so I don't know how it stacks up against the GTR sims. Last game I bought was Richard Burns Rally which was pretty damn good....so not sure, maybe I'll buy rFactor, it does have some decent mods for it by the looks of things. The single player experience seems quite configurable so thats a plus for me :)

It could be that the cars in the trial are just a bit crap, I never was one for using the F1 car in LFS either...much prefer tin-tops.

I'd check and see if mods work with the trial, as the McLaren, PPC - with tweaked physics-, AusV8, Protoracer / Demons and Zonda mods are great fun ( not a big fan of the Megane mod tbh, but a lot of people love it ).

Check here for more to see if any are of interest.

CDTP mod is Awesome.
Unbelievably fast, great handling, brilliant skins a complete joy to drive.
The buzz of overtaking a Ferrari or Renault in current livery is fantastic. This game just gets better and better. I raced all night last night and will race all day today.
There is just one problem now. :(
What do i drive,
My F1 car, my Zonda or my Megane. Choices choices choices. :)

I have never had so much fun sitting down. :cool:
 
Bought the game but not sure i like it enough to warrant the £30, its fun but I dont feel like im really in full control of the cars?, same feeling I get in the gtr/gt legend games :(
 
This is probably due to the Speed sensitivity settings that ISI use which in real effect dumb down the FFB.
Reduce Speed sensitivity setting to Zero %
Centreing to 10%
Digital steering raise to 50%
and go Single Axis on the pedals.

If you have the DFP wheel Beano has a config file to try i sent him yesterday.
It's weird because others say they don't get any feel where as i am literally hurting myelf whilst racing. The force i get back is mad and has to be set at medium. I am knackered after a long race and sweat like a rapist. :p

Bare in mind i am an old git though so it may be me just being weak frail and old. :D
 
I bought it not long after this thread started and have to admit that i love it to bits. I`m using a 360 pad too and unlike similar games it works a dream.

I`ve downloaded the F1 mod but dont have the credits to actually drive one of the things yet lol. Really enjoying the Megane`s tho, great stuff and awesome engine / vehicle sounds in this game :-)
 
For credits and All cars Enter a game or even create one.
Then write into message box the following;
/ISI_BABYFACTORY

You will then have 2 million credits and All cars. :cool:

This is Not considered a cheat but just an unlock. Most of the community use it and it is posted on All forums and released in the read me with mods.
 
or you could just go into the rfm folder and change the CCH files so you have as much experience and money as you want :)
 
Well, I downloaded it, put it on and uninstalled it within 20 minutes. Not impressed, much prefer GTR/2 and LFS.
 
After playing with the control settings ( had to reduce FF force down to about 75% and turn down the speed sense steering to 10% ) and getting used to it in general, i gotta say i rather like it now, its far better than gt legends/gtr/gtr2 for me, although still not better than lfs :cool:

Had a couple races with the 2005 F1 mod with Adex and a few cpu cars, proper intense stuff :eek:
 
Do you need to sign up?

because I can't get this silly error:
Code: 
Warning: fopen(http://[email protected]&EMailSubject=rFactor.net+Account+Registration&TVFirstname=Simon&TVLastname=Rope&TVPassword=8ktrmgfp&GenerateActKey=TRUE): failed to open stream: HTTP request failed! HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error in /home/isi/public_html/rfactor/signup_finish.php on line 47
There was a problem with the submission. Please contact the webmaster.

also, how long does trial last? :P
 
I liked this game, but lost my auth code, can someone give me some tips on retreiving the code from the company?
last time I checked people were having a nightmare so I couldnt be bothered.

Edit: just did it, easier than I thought at the main site once I rembered what email address I used to buy it, they must have improved things, as this use to be a big issue.

Anyway just need a new motherboard now, I used to like LFS, then bought a 360 to play PGR3 and RR6, now Im itching to get back into Rfactor :)

Mod brought to you by GSMF homesite linky http://www.team-gsmf.com/


Personally i like the mod and think it feels great. They are very tail happy and you really have to plant your rear and kick it out of bends.
I had my first race in a 20 field earlier and won it, the secret is to be smooth and consistant don't get larey or they will bite you.
