For those interested in an in my opinion better FFB experience in pCARS without clipping of the FFB signal, here are my settings for both... CSW and T500 RS.
The reason I went for a low Tyre Force setting in the settings menu is because I have more room with the Tyre Force Multi to multiply the Tyre Force setting number.
In other words:
Tyre Force Multi x Tyre Force = resulting figure used by game
So with Tyre Force 33:
0.5x33=16.5 or 0.6x33=19.8 or 0.7x33=23.1
With Defaults:
0.5x100=50 or 0.6x100=60 or 0.7x100=70
So as you can see every FFB step I take to increase power is with a 3.3 step, where as with the defaults you would take a huge increase in FFB by using steps of 10.
This in result means it is more easy to go over the limit and thus clipping the signal. Where as with little steps you can fine tune it all closer to the edge of clipping.
Though, I could be completely wrong and talking from... you know what. But this is how it felt for me.
Anyways, try the below settings with your CSW and/or T500 wheels. Maybe someone likes it or dislikes it. Would love feedback to be honest, as I started wondering if my sense of FFB is wrong or off from what you guys experience.
ps. The Tyre Force Multi has to be set every time you start a new race/time trail/practice session. This can be set in: F1-dev menu -> Vehicles -> FFB Adjust -> Tyre Force Multi
