Has something being improved lately for VR, by an update, as from what I remember that AMs2 still was infected with shimmer at the vertical beams/ flagpoles. Think for a suppose to be a modern VR game it’s not you wanting to see in a ā€œbest VR category gameā€
I never noticed those shimmers in AMS2 ... what I did notice and ruins AMS2 for me is the drivers dissapearing after too short a distance and no way to change that , making karting a no-go in AMS2 .. other then that its almost a perfect VR implementation
I do use CM but I've never seen that page before or if I have it's been so long ago I don't remember it. I thought the FFB settings were controlled within the game itself. When I got this PC I remember going into the game itself to do FFB settings.

The problem I'm having is that a few days ago AC was being praised for having just the greatest FFB of any game and I thought "Really??" then I must be missing something. Because for me out of the now 6 games I have I would put AC at the bottom. It's just so neutral and numb. I run over curbs and I barely hear them or feel them. Every track feels buttery smooth. Yes you get the up and down undulations of the bumps but there's no road texture feel. Maybe there isn't supposed to be, I don't know. That got me to maybe trying to look at the game settings in case I'm missing something.

This is what my page looks like which kind of looks like yours

I don't think mine does. I barely know what to do with the main 6 buttons. I would have no idea what to do with 80.

I just asked, cause the screenshot you posted shows 80+ inputs on your wheel:

Mod has been updated to the latest version. This update is only for the full track version (top link), not the 'Spa 2022 Update for original Spa Folder' version. The amount of changes was kind of impossible to make work for that version. I may give it a try some day. Use the Spa_2022_Update link in the quote above to get the new version.

Since it's a full track update, I would suggest you backup your existing spa_2022 folder first for safe keeping (assuming you have one). That way you can restore anything you have added that didn't come with the mod (i.e., ai lines, extra track skins, etc). Also disable and delete your existing skins folder. Then extract the new version and overwrite when it asks (don't use the CM install feature, do things manually). If you were using Pyyer's Spa extensions with the track, also extract the contents of the ' Files_for_Pyyer_extensions' folder and overwrite when it asks. I have not finished the F1 2025 extension edits yet. Be advised, I did not include his full extensions so you need those first. I only included a small handful of edited files so his extensions would work with this version of the track.


Notes:

-- The mod includes three layouts. The original Kunos Spa track with my grass, tree, etc. edits built in. The original Spa 2022 track from guigui0256 with my edits and a 2023 layout which is nothing more than the Spa 2022 track but with grass on the construction dirt area instead of dirt.
-- There are a handful of track skins you can try, but all of them are optional. You can run the track without using any of them if you prefer. All of them are self-explanatory as to what they do, but one word about the two Green Construction Dirt skins. The Green Construction Dirt skin only needs to be used on the 2022 layout if you'd rather see grass instead of dirt. The Green Construction Dirt 2 skin can be used with either the 2022 or 2023 layout and simply makes the grass a little less patchy looking.

Lastly, sorry for the hassle with the update. I know I said I was going to try and find and easy way to make the construction dirt green, but once I got started I decided to fix a bunch of other things that bothered me. In the end the update list got too extensive and required a full track update. Hopefully the changes are worth the hassle for you.

One last small update so I can put this one to bed. I couldn't figure out why the grass_fx looked kind of odd on the construction dirt area that I changed to grass. Turns out I had incorrect values for the multB, multG and multR shader settings. I had them at 0.0125. I wanted them to be 0.125. The change should help the grass_fx (and grass in general) look a little better on the hillside.

If you have already downloaded the updated track, just use the link below to get the updated files. Simply extract the files and overwrite when it asks. To be safe, I would suggest you temporarily disable any track skins first before extracting. For new users, the full track link already has these files included.
