FORCE_SCALE_PERCENT 100
FORCE_DAMPING_PERCENT 100
Just fiddle with the numbers. I don't fully understand what they do.
Increasing either number makes the effects more powerful. I'm not even sure
if 100 is the default, actually. You should be able to feel when you go
onto the apron and when the tires lose grip once you get it right. Enjoy.

I've got the Force RS hooked up right now, but I think I was using the same
(or very close) settings for each wheel.
N3.ini
FORCE_SCALE_PERCENT 200
FORCE_DAMPING_PERCENT 200
Windows:
Overall Device Gain: 100%
Spring Gain: 55%
Damper Gain: 55%
The wheel doesn't oscillate when the car is still, and does only a little
when moving (that's the way I like it). When I want to make a change, like
if the wheel was oscillating, I change the Windows settings for Gain and
Damper evenly, and leave the N3.ini settings alsways at 200. I can get rid
of wheel oscillation by just turning up the Gain, but I feel I don't get as
good subtle force effects that way, so I'd suggest increasing both to get
rid of it. Still, I'm open for suggestions ;)

By the way, there are v1.23 drivers out on the Guillemot site. They are
about 10-15% stronger, but otherwise seem to be the same as the originals :(

I think the FF in N3 must be a carryover from N1 or something. I really
don't think it's very well done (just my opinion). N3 would be great with
GPL type FF, but I don't really think we'll see too many games in the future
programming FF with Vector Forces the way GPL does. It's just to difficult
to do it right. Really a shame. I-Force seems to be pushing Spring type FF
too, maybe because it's so easy to program.
I'll check to see what version driver I have for the Ferrari, but it might
be the latest. I know it's the same as the Act Labs driver, and that's
version 1.23. It's really the same I-Force driver, just that one has the Act
logo and the other the Ferrari logo. When I switch wheels, I often don't
switch drivers. So I might run the Ferrari wheel, but it says Act Labs Force
RS in control panel, for example, or the other way around.
