This is some info on force feedback settings taken from the readme file of
Nascar3
FORCE FEEDBACK VARIABLES
Users with force feedback devices can tune the forces by adding the
following two variables to their N3.INI:
FORCE_SCALE_PERCENT n
FORCE_DAMPING_PERCENT n
Both can be set to the range of 0-200 and will scale the existing parameters
accordingly. Force Scale is used to determine how strong a force is, and
can be used to try to adjust the amount of force the game provides. Force
Damping is a factor in determining how much resistance the wheel provides to
turning. It would primarily be used to decrease the tendency of a wheel to
oscillate under certain
conditions.

>>I picked up the Logitech Formula Force last night, and I was pumped to try

>>if FF were even turned on at all.
>>Is there any way to increase the force fx in N3? In my win98 control
panel,
>>all the force sliders are set to 100%, and the test fx are great. Also the
>>fx in my other games are far better than N3.
