It's a DFGT so 900 degrees. I follow all the instructions properly if that's what you mean. The problem seems to be with the driver... When I'm calibrating in the logitech driver, it has the "x-axis" and "y-axis" and the x-axis maxes out when I've turned the wheel 110 degrees to the left

strange.. have you downloaded the latest drivers?

 

[shhiny48]

either way, next pedals you buy, MUST be loadcell for brake. it's just a game changer for sure and you can then really start relaxing with the brake and really lean on it during overtaking moves, trailbrake etc.

+1

Really a true statement. If you have the money get Clubsport Pedals. All aluminum design...

PS Watched the replay, it looks to me like it was a blatant block on Tiago's part, he did move to the inside before you javier so the first move is not the problem. It looked to me like he went back to the outside to try to block the red/blue car, realized he wasn't a threat and so came back down to block you, thus hitting you in the process.

open up Logitech Profiler, go to options, Global Device Options and you can set the degrees of rotation there.

Thank youuu I've been stuck with macs for the last year and have no clue what I'm doing

 

[Jav]

Ok Javier here is the cut replay. To me it looks intentional as he´s for sure trying to block you even though you are side by side.

The incident on the second lap though with some other guy where you went off was your own fault and not his. He had no place to go there and you and the other guy changed lines during braking which is a no no.

Anyway back to the replay, here it is.

Next time you want to protest someone, when you are saving the video you will see a scissor icon. if you press that (for example just before the incident)
You can then press play, fast forward or simply move the slider until after the incident is over and then press save. It will then save the desired part.

Also, you might find this interesting.

Your gas pedal is done. it doesn´t give 100% and sometimes it was around 95% only.
That will give you some time alone with either fixed potentiometer or new pedals.

And, it looks like you are heel´n´toeing right?
Do you have autoclutch on? If yes, turn that off.

And you are hitting the limiter every time you upshift. You lose probably a full second with these things combined over a lap.

Also, after you have calibrated your pedals. Check above where you set FFB strength and you will see a brake slider. Read the text there and set it to the correct value for potentiometer brakes. Everytime you hit the brakes, you lock the wheels.
Be a little smoother with the brakes otherwise in the higher classes you will have alot of punctures.

SOON.

I will definitely look into that! This pedals are a big PITA!! If I disconnect the wire from the wheel and connect again they will go to full value for a few laps then start doing it again, just waiting on some money to get me some ClubSports...

Did you see what he did to me on the final lap?

 

[Jav]

JAV, i´m sure this protest will be not accept. he was driving his way, and what you are calling blocking, he can call it defensing his line.


but i don´t say that was good racing from him.

Did you saw the ending? What he did to me how he plain took me out and after that tried again to take me out? I know iRacing dismisses as many incidents as possible as racing incidents but my God this guy is out to wreck everyone!

The first move is nothing compared to what he did on the last lap, you guys need to watch that and you'll understand how I feel...
Anyways is over now and I am working to get my SR back!

 

[RACECAR]

Once those new cars come out, can you guys link me to the templates?

 

[Jav]

That Ford looks so sexy!!

 

[MagpieRacer]

I think I must just be lucky, I have only had one major incident where I got hit and Im sure it wasn't deliberate. Was lapping him and he turned in on me mid hairpin, I think he thought I was clear past him and I wasn't.

I didn't even watch the whole thing lol, I just saw what happened on lap 2 and figured your race was done I'll definitely check it out

You definitely are lucky my friend! I seem to have all the luck in the world when it comes to finding this loonies!

 

[motortrend]

search the iracing forum for G25 broken pedals or something.

i think you have two options,
1. all you need to do is clean the potentiometer.
2. the meter is broken and you have to buy a new one. should be relatively cheap i think.

worst case scenario is replacing the pedals but i highly doubt that.

either way, next pedals you buy, MUST be loadcell for brake. it's just a game changer for sure and you can then really start relaxing with the brake and really lean on it during overtaking moves, trailbrake etc.

Thing with the brake is... I right foot brake So yeah I have to learn to left foot brake. The only problem with that is that with the playseat the tube is in the middle to left foot braking can't be done comfortably

 

[SohnVonStig]

New problem "Logitech profiler was unable to detect any usb controllers." It's plugged in, on and I can use controller settings. Try setting it to 900 degrees, but there are only two options in controller settings "defaults" and "close" neither of which save my settings... HEEEEELP!!!!

blue car = Jav


what is there clearly? and you lost 0,07 SR!
i was yesterday also unlucky because of mistakes of the others, -0,33 SR, and more then -100 IR. points are coming, points are going.

i say it again, you will be unlucky with your protest.

Do you use spotter? It´s really crucial to have, i even use it despite 3 screens.

Should be the same as now don´t you think? brake as brake, just a totally different feeling.
I would H´n´T if i had a proper gearbox but i´m waiting for the CSP Shifter from Fanatec. Still use the clutch for starts etc.

Regarding youtube clip above.. You missed the part after the incident where he tried to run Jav and the other guy off twice but failed to do so.

 

[SohnVonStig]

Right well.... after 4 bloody hours of trying to get my steering wheel to work right, I've finally done it 900 degrees of rotation!!!!

Unfortunately it's 6 am and I believe I just fell asleep at the virtual wheel during a time trial....so nightienight for me

 

[hampus_dh]

Wish we all were on the same timezone
I just woke up around 30 min ago

Well technically my issue isn't so much my timezone as it is my body clock

 

[hampus_dh]

Just thought it would be cool you know if everyone woke up around the same time no matter were in the world you are etc
Obviously that isn´t possible, but still.

sorry, i wateched it again and don´t know what you are speaking about. which lap? Jav said last lap, my video shows the onlyst bad action in the last lap.
if there was something really big wrong from him, then in the first lap. but not sure if iRacing will call that not also us an race accident.

anyway, we will see what they will say.

 

[hampus_dh]

Just after the incident you put up on youtube there. If you continue watching (the .rpy) you will see that he tries everything he has to punt off Jav and the other guy but misses both of them thankfully.
They will say Race Incident because Nim is an ass who doesn´t care.
I´ve had worse clips where there was no question of intentional wrecking and he still said the BS Race incident. I even appealed it but they threw it in the bin and forgot about it.

 

[Rudi Raser]

there is nothing more. that was at the end of lap 25, and then he did the last meters till the finish line.

 

[hampus_dh]

Of course there is more. After the crash, Tiago is ahead of Jav and the other guy.
He´s much slower and goes right then left but misses both of them as they cross the finish line.

 

[Rudi Raser]

you mean that?



and you really think thats enough for to report him?
but i think its enough now. if Jay means he will do it, please. he can´t do anything wrong and we will see how it will be end.

 

[hampus_dh]

Doesn´t matter if it´s enough or not. I already said it probably won´t be enough.
But what he does is the right thing. Idiots like that is not needed in iRacing.
They should be playing Midtown Madness or NFS instead.

Way to little people have respect for other racers.

 

[Rudi Raser]

thats right, looks like rookie racing. ah, he is an rookie, member since 06.06.2011.

and hey, only 18.11 incs per race.

 

[Jav]

I honestly think that's some guy using that account to troll arround and terrorize the other drivers.

Right well.... after 4 bloody hours of trying to get my steering wheel to work right, I've finally done it 900 degrees of rotation!!!!

Woohoo!! Hope we can get some good racing in tonight!

 

[hampus_dh]

it's actually a known thing and was discussed on the forums. some guys have two accounts where one is simply a wreck account.

check out Salma Ladak, can guarantee you that it's a second account.
he wanted to apply for the F1 league lol.
1.88 SR when i checked that time.

Yup! That person has applied to every single league I've seen over there, some have already welcomed her without even checking!
